Birmingham-based developer VooFoo Studios knows a thing or two about tabletop titles, having already shepherded the excellent Pure Pool and Pure Chess onto the PlayStation 4. Now it's back with Pure Hold'em, a poker-themed release that's sure to become the next big hit on the Live from PlayStation application.
As with all of the firm's titles, this will boast jaw-dropping visuals, with two tables for you to bet your chips at. These will include a casino and a swish penthouse, of course. The real appeal, however, will be the progression system, which will see you working your way up to higher stakes tables as you win various pots.
The game's due out later this year, but in order to celebrate its announcement β and presumably steal a bit of Hustle Kings' thunder β the studio's cut the price of Pure Pool by 40 per cent, and is offering an extra 10 per cent discount for PlayStation Plus subscribers. We actually really liked that game, so it's worth a shot while you wait for the developer to fully reveal its hand here.

Simulated gambling is nice, I get to save more money in the long run.
love Pure Pool but really dislike their free version hustle kings. @Sammy Is this a buyable title like Pure Pool or is it a free to play like hustle kings? If it's the latter it'll make me pass it up. I love pure pool because it is exactly that purely pool. (mute the music stick on your own tunes and it's heaven) The hustle kings title is so full of info it's irritating.
Hope this title is Voodoo's old style of purely hold'em and not based around Hustle. I don't mind paying for a tltle to stop all the intrusive 'playing with others' crap the free to play seems to fill your screen with.
Poker by those developers will look amazing π day one for me
will they completely ignore online play like pure chess?
Hi. Just to let you know, Hustle Kings PS4 isn't a VooFoo product so Pure Hold'em will be much more like Pure Pool in its style and approach. It will also fully support online play. Hope that helps!
@TomKongPhooey Yeah, as already confirmed there by @VF_Shaun, Hustle Kings was actually brought to PS4 by Sony.
cheers sammy and VF_Shaun that puts a smile on my face. This will deffo be a must for me then. Just love pure pool lol
Pure pool was (and is) great, and I look forward to this SO LONG as the random card generator is exactly that.
