Unfortunately, the Croatian language has never been popular within video games, but it has partially made its way into some well-known titles for PlayStation in the form of subtitles and translated menus. It is important to emphasize that the games containing it are not small, but rather well-known series that have shaped the legacy of the aforementioned console.
Medievil
Sir Daniel Fortesque is one of the somewhat forgotten faces in the memory of certain players and lists of video games. The hero of the Medievil series appeared in four games: Medievil (PS1), Medievil 2 (PS1), Medievil: Resurrection (PSP), and a sort of remake from 2019 on PlayStation 4. It is this last title that had translated menus and text.
Buzz! Brain of Croatia
Buzz! Brain of Croatia (Buzz! Brain of the World) is a title from 2009 that is part of a popular quiz series. It was the eighth installment that appeared on PlayStation 2, PlayStation Portable, and PlayStation 3.

The game also had menus and questions that were translated into Croatian.
