As the title says, I'm curious to know what are the best games to play online with friends on the PS5. My friends and I play Apex, but some are starting to get burnt out so we're looking for alternatives (that aren't fortnite, OW2 or Destiny 2). It feels like good multiplayer games are a bit limited. We tried Deep Rock Galactic but since we live in different countries the ping was unplayable due to it being peer to peer (~300+ ping).

So, what do you suggest?

If 300+ ping, that pretty much limit the game to turn based or something where syncing doesn't play a big role. (ie like old MMO, even if you have high ping you can still play cause it's not necessary to sync up other players location right away, as everything is happening on the server and eventually sync up is fine. )

But yeah, I don't have good suggestions with 300+ ping. if you can find a region that's <100 ping than I would recommend Rocket League, since it's F2P.

I guess I should have clarified. I don't have 300+ ping, but when I play peer to peer, like Deep Rock, it had 300+ so that's why games with actual serves like Apex are better
