Conceptually, it is all about the merging of dreams with reality.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">In a <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gamespress.com\/en-GB\/MELATONIN-IS-COMING-TO-PLAYSTATION-5\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">press release<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> on 4th March 2024, Huynh said: \u201cI\u2019m so excited to introduce Melatonin to a whole new audience of gamers. As a huge fan of rhythm games, I truly hope that Melatonin can inspire players to try more games in the genre \u2013 and that it encourages game devs to make more of them, too.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">So, how long do we have to wait before we can get jiving to Melatonin on PS5?<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>When is the Melatonin PS5 release date?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Melatonin will be <\/span><b>released on PS5 on 12th March 2024<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">.
