News Move Over Power Glove! Sony Patents PlayStation VR Mittens
Everything else is child's play
They do say that everything comes full-circle eventually, so if PlayStation VR is merely a next-gen Virtual Boy, then we suppose that it makes sense for Sony to be planning a Power Glove alternative, too. A patent filed by SCEA shortly after the announcement of Project Morpheus in 2014 suggests that the company's at...
News Sony Switches Off PlayStation TV Shipments in Japan
Tuned out
Sony's pushed the power button on PlayStation TV in Japan, with an update on its website stressing that it's no longer shipping the microconsole to local retailers. The failed format is still available from some stores, of course, but the platform holder will not be replenishing inventory once current stocks run out. In other words, it's...
Push Rewind Uncharted 4, PlayStation Plus Freebies, Far Cry Primal
For Drake's sake
Ooh boy, the highlight this week has to be that Uncharted 4: A Thief's End trailer, doesn't it? Even ignoring the hullabaloo regarding the place holder art, Naughty Dog's latest practically sizzled in its latest story clip. Other highlights this time include the latest PlayStation Plus line-up, and several big reviews – Far Cry...

Hardware Review How to Extend Your PS4 Controller's Battery Life
Never stop playing
Longevity isn't exactly the DualShock 4's favourite word. Sony's latest controller may be the most comfortable that it's ever made, but if it was on a Duracell commercial, it would be one of those knock-off bunnies on its haunches staring longingly at the cotton tails of its supercharged counterparts. The PowerPak 1, an ergonomic...
News Shenmue III Sizzles in Scintillating New PS4 Screenshots
Bailu's lookin' beautiful
The first Shenmue III screenshot released didn't exactly capture the imagination, but the project's been in development for a little while now, and is slowly beginning to take shape. These images, deployed to coincide with a Shibuya Productions hosted event named Magic Monaco earlier today, really impress, showing shots of...
News Naughty Dog Started Uncharted 4's Story Again
Plot changed 100 per cent
Naughty Dog re-worked Uncharted 4: A Thief's End's story "100 per cent", according to creative director Neil Druckmann. Many of you may remember Amy Hennig's unceremonious exit from the Californian company a few years back; this resulted in the story being re-written, actors changing, and what seemed like an exodus from the...

Talking Point What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 107
Just dance
It's the weekend, which means that it's time to dig out your Little Mix CD and start dancing like it's 2016. Or you could just switch on your PlayStation 4 and sit down with some games, which is what we'll be doing. Everyone's got two left feet here at Push Square Towers, y'see.

News PS4 Fans Are So Mad at PlayStation Plus They're Making Parodies
Has it really got that bad?
PlayStation Plus members are fed up of pixel art platformers – even though, y'know, you all just voted Broforce in as one of your March freebies. Nevertheless, so unenthused about the Instant Game Collection is the PlayStation 4 community right now that it's started making parody videos. Cue this "hilarious" take on...
News There's a Way to Play Gundam Breaker 3 in English This April
As long as you don't mind importing
Even though Bandai Namco is localising Vita action game Mobile Suit Gundam: Extreme VS-Force later this year, that hasn't stopped many fans from lusting after Gundam Breaker 3 - another mech-based brawler that's launching on PlayStation 4 and Vita in Japan on the 3rd March. Sadly, there's been no word of the...
Review Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare 2 (PS4)
Behind enemy vines
Popcap has taken control of the plantation again with a sequel to the much-loved Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare. We really liked the original release, praising its ability to "stay true to its roots" while still offering an olive branch to new audiences by "switching up the franchise's familiar format". But by returning to the...
I see London, I see France
Ironcast is a very pleasant game considering its subject matter, its upper-class Victorian characters maintaining their polite demeanour in the direst of situations. Due to a dispute over a very valuable substance called Voltite, the British Empire is at war with its old enemy from across the channel, and it'll take nine...
Review The Walking Dead: Michonne - Episode 1: In Too Deep (PS4)
A name you won't forget
Telltale Games' portfolio may be deep these days, but it's the company's exemplary contributions to The Walking Dead universe that will forever earn top billing. Alongside millions of others, we love the crushingly hard choices and branching character development that's unfolded over two seasons thus far. That said, we were...
Rumour Could Battlefield 5 Whisk You Back to World War I?
War never changes
Here's an interesting rumour: Battlefield 5 may take place during World War I. That, at least, is what one Swiss retailer thinks, listing the game as a "multiplayer tactical shooter" set during the aforementioned time period. World of Games – the store in question – has since edited the page, but has left in a 26th October...
News Will Red Dead Redemption 2 Be Announced at E3 2016?
BioShock? Borderlands? Take Two's going big
Take Two, the company in charge of 2K Games and Rockstar, has hinted that it will appear at E3 2016 in a "big way". Strauss Zelnick, the organisation's head honcho, teased the tidbit in the latest issue of MCV, stopping short of revealing which titles it will have on display. It currently has three games...
News You Can Now Search for PS4 Communities
No excuses not to join Push Square's now
Well, then – who says Sony doesn't listen to feedback? The PlayStation 4 communities feature bizarrely launched without a search button last year, meaning that you had to follow a convoluted process to find the groups that you wanted to join. Now, though, the platform holder has added a search button,...
News Senran Kagura Estival Versus Finally Jiggles onto PS4, Vita Next Month
The girls are back in town
Fans have been waiting for what feels like an eternity, but the moment has finally arrived: Senran Kagura Estival Versus has confirmed release dates for its arrival here in the West - and it may actually be coming a little sooner than you might have thought. The brawler will bounce onto PlayStation 4 and Vita on the...
News This Tasty 12 Minute Anime Introduces God Eater: Resurrection
Whet your appetite
If you're looking forward to God Eater: Resurrection and God Eater 2: Rage Burst, then you might want to check out this 12 minute anime introduction to the former. It sets the scene for the action role-playing game by detailing major events six years prior. With some slick animation and a decent amount of action, we reckon that...

Chick, whistle, and stomp
Originally released on the Wii U in 2013, and followed closely by versions for Windows, Mac, and Linux in the months after that, it has taken almost exactly three years for Toki Tori 2+ to finally come to PlayStation. This gap will have somewhat deflected some of the hype surrounding it for Sony fans, but to merely glance...
News The, Er, Batmobile's Coming to Rocket League on PS4
Send a spotlight signal
When you move 10 million units, you tend to open a lot of doors for yourself. It's perhaps no major surprise that Rocket League will be adding the Batmobile from 8th March on the PlayStation 4. The supercharged vehicle will cost you just $1.99, and will come with three antenna flags – one apiece for Batman, Superman, and...
Review Ninja Senki DX (PS Vita)
No-go ninja
Tribute Games has been churning out unremarkable indie games for quite a while now. Each illuminates a finer aspect from all of those 8 and 16-bit titles we grew to know and love but always does so in a negative way. Wizorb is unique but trite in its presentation. Mercenary Kings is what Metal Slug would've looked like after a bout with...
News Resident Evil 4, 5, and 6 Are All Shuffling to PS4 This Year
Yes, all of 'em
When you're in dire financial straits like Capcom are, the only solution is to throw as many remasters at the wall as possible and hope something sticks. Not content with bringing Resident Evil and Resident Evil Zero to Sony's new-gen system, the publisher has now announced that Resident Evil 4, Resident Evil 5, and Resident Evil 6...
News DOOM Should Run Like a Bloody Dream on PS4
"The best-looking game at 1080p, 60fps"
Gotta love the team over at id Software, eh? The developer's lead project programmer, Billy Khan, has bigged up DOOM's engine ahead of its release in a few months, stating that it'll run at 60 frames per second in 1080p on PlayStation 4. "We want players to wonder how DOOM and idTech 6 games can be so...
Talking Point Do You Fast Travel in Open World Games?
Quick trip or epic voyage
There are those that fast travel, and those that don't. Raised voices broke out in Push Square Towers this week when Robert Ramsey revealed that he walks everywhere in Fallout 4. This led to Sammy Barker using words that can't be repeated on these hallowed pages. The result: a poll to the death to determine who the real...
News Dead or Alive 5: Last Round Kicks Off Big DLC Plans
A new character, a free stage, and more costumes
Naotora Ii from Samurai Warriors 4 will be joining the cast of Dead or Alive 5: Last Round on the 17th March, Koei Tecmo has revealed. Those of you who have played the hack and slash title will probably already know that Naotora specialises in powerful kicks, so you can probably guess how she's going...
News PS4 Remains the Best Place to Play, Says Sony
Any arguments?
Sony's dropped a new chest-pumping trailer for Spring 2016, reiterating that the PlayStation 4 remains the best place to play. The clip centres on console exclusive games like Street Fighter V, Uncharted 4: A Thief's End, and MLB 16: The Show, before re-iterating that all Call of Duty: Black Ops III map packs can be played on the...

The developer said that more details will follow soon, including who it's partnering with and what content...

Detailing the action role-playing title's...

Wow, March's PlayStation Plus lineup is looking pretty explosive. Alongside the bombastic Broforce, which was voted into the selection by PlayStation 4 users, you'll be getting the rather good Galak-Z on Sony's newest system. As long as you like blowing things up, that's not too bad, right? Meanwhile, PS3 players can look forward...
News So, Uncharted 4 Has Apparently Stolen Some Assassin's Creed Artwork
A thief's end
Hmmmm, what's all this, then? In case you missed it, a new Uncharted 4: A Thief's End trailer was revealed today, and it's really bloody good - so you should go check it out through here. However, good trailer or not, it seems as though developer Naughty Dog may have been, well, a bit naughty. There's a part in the video where the...

New story trailer sizzles
Good god! Just… What the heck do they put in the water at Naughty Dog?

There may be a few spoilers in here if you're eager to remain fresh ahead of the title's April...
News PSN Down For Maintenance Early Next Month
Don't panic
Did you read "PSN Down" in the headline and immediately think "not again"? Well we've got good news for you, as Sony's network hasn't taken another tumble offline - at least, not as far as we're aware. No, this is actually just a quick heads up that the service will be undergoing maintenance early next month. On the 2nd March, the...
News It Hasn't Taken Long for Naughty Dog to Release Another Uncharted 4 Trailer
Whoops
In a rather bizarre story earlier today, some Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag concept art managed to pop up in the latest Uncharted 4: A Thief's End trailer. After it was pointed out by a Ubisoft employee, people began to assume that Naughty Dog may have nicked the picture and been caught red handed. As it turns out, that assumption might...
News PlayStation VR's Price and Release Date May Be Incoming
Save the date
With both the Oculus Rift and HTC Vive already (extortionately) priced, all eyes are on Sony and its PlayStation VR headset. Fortunately, we may be learning a little more about the accessory imminently, as the platform holder is inviting press to a special event on 15th March in San Francisco. The date coincides with the Game...
Book Review Console Wars - A Sony, Nintendo, and SEGA Love Triangle
Serious business
Console wars have a bad name. We're not condoning the craziness that occurs on social media and message boards from time to time, but there's a competitive edge to any industry that can be entertaining when viewed from the inside – and video games are no different. Console Wars, a fly-on-the-wall insight into the skirmish for...
News Japanese Sales Charts: Street Fighter V Falls Short on PS4
Not quite a knockout
We're afraid that it's yet more disappointing news for Street Fighter V, as its opening Japanese sales figures are in. We already know that the brawler hasn't done especially well here in the UK, and it turns out that it hasn't quite set Japan alight, either. Capcom's latest sold through 41,990 copies on PlayStation 4, which...
News Fallout 4's Survival Mode Takes Things Way More Seriously
It's a tough old world
If you haven't already heard, Fallout 4 is getting a survival mode in a free update relatively soon. Much like Fallout: New Vegas' hardcore mode, you'll need to eat, sleep, and keep yourself hydrated in order to survive - but we could have guessed that this would be the case anyway. Nevertheless, Reddit's data mined some more...
News Dark Souls III PS4 Trailer Keeps the Hype Train Moving
True colours
Are we getting no respite today? Hot on the heels of the fantastic Uncharted 4: A Thief's End story trailer, Bandai Namco has deployed this desperately moody Dark Souls III clip, which is backed by a macabre cover of Cyndi Lauper's 'True Colors'. This is a proper miserable little trailer, we've got to be honest. But doesn't it look...
News Sony's Teasing an Uncharted 4 Reveal This Afternoon
More valuable than gold
Get your tickets ready, because the hype train is about to leave the station. Kicking things off over on Twitter, the official PlayStation account has teased some sort of Uncharted 4: A Thief's End reveal that's happening later this afternoon. How exciting. Whatever's coming our way, it'll blast onto the 'net at 14:00PM GMT...

More open maps, co-op, and a new trailer
Going by a load of new information regarding Dragon Quest Heroes II, it's really starting to sound like this'll be a sequel that improves upon just about everything that the first game did right. The info comes direct from a recent Square Enix broadcast, kindly translated by Gematsu. Alongside a rousing new...
News Risk of Rain Finally Forecasted to Fall on PS4 and Vita
Took long enough
With the fourth birthday of the PlayStation Vita as of yesterday, it would have been nice for Sony to have given some presents to owners of the neglected system, but once again, it looks like the indie scene will be picking up the slack once again with Risk of Rain, courtesy of Hopoo Games and Code Mystics. What's interesting is...

Keep on sleuthing
If Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth's 50 hour narrative wasn't enough to satisfy your hunger for digital monsters, then you'll be glad to know that mission packs 2, 3, and 4 are out today on the PlayStation Store. And, like with the first pack that launched last week, they won't cost you a penny. As their names suggest, the add-ons...
Review Hitman Go: Definitive Edition (PS4)
Dio-drama
For a hit to go off successfully, assassins need to work with clockwork efficiency. Hitman Go: Definitive Edition, the PlayStation 4 and Vita port of Square Enix Montreal's mobile spin-off, takes that idea literally, polishing the shiny scalp of cold-blooded killer Agent 47 like it's made of resin – because, well, in this interpretation...
News Weird PS4 RPG The Technomancer Is Starting to Grab Our Attention
Mars attacks
Yes, before you say it, we know that we've been here before. Those of you who remember us banging on about an action role-playing game by the name of Bound by Flame will know that we were quite excited for the BioWare-esque title, but ultimately, it didn't live up to its potential. And we get it: you could easily say the same thing...
News PlayStation VR Will Dominate Space if Less Than $500, Says Pachter
But will it be?
While there are three different high-profile virtual reality headsets scheduled to launch this year, it doesn't feel like they're necessarily in competition.

News PS4 Stealth Sequel Styx: Shards of Darkness Sure Looks Impressive
Unreal Engine 4 life
Styx: Master of Shadows was a pretty decent stealth title that launched on the PlayStation 4 back in 2014, but for many, it crawled straight under the radar and into obscurity. A sequel seems like a good idea, then, and if Styx: Shards of Darkness' first screenshots are anything to go by, it may be a 2016 release that's worth...
News Gritty Modern Shooter Insurgency: Sandstorm Fires Shots on PS4
Sequel to the popular PC game releases in 2017

News Fallout 4 Mods on PS4 May Be Arriving This Summer
A rough estimate from Todd Howard
Mod support for Fallout 4 has been a big talking point - especially when it comes to us console players. How will they work? Will they be limited? How long will we have to wait? All of these questions and more have been spiralling for months, but sadly, we're still no closer to any definitive answers. However,...

Monday22nd Feb 2016
Evolution not revolution
It's easy to imagine that when the team behind Far Cry Primal were deciding what their latest outing should be, they looked back over their previous titles and asked: what do people most enjoy about Far Cry? One of the things that would probably be near the top of that list would be the hunting and crafting that acted as one...

Pot luck
Those of you hoping to swell the size of your Trophy cabinet with another easy Telltale Platinum may be disappointed to learn that mini-series The Walking Dead: Michonne will ship without a silvery-blue pot.

News Get Your Burning Blood Pumping with 4 Minutes of One Piece PS4 Gameplay
Heading for the summit
One Piece: Burning Blood's new trailer shows off a generous amount of story and gameplay - and we reckon that it looks rather rad. Focussing on the Battle of Marineford, in which various powerful pirates take on numerous bigwig Marines, there are some slight spoilers here, but we'll assume that if you're reading this, you...
News So, That Other VR Headset Will Cost You $800
Ouch
This story's not really PlayStation related, but it's relevant to the virtual reality discussion, so we're just putting it out there: HTC's Vive will retail for a cool $799.99 when it starts shipping in April 2016. Assuming that you've got enough kidneys to sell, pre-orders will begin at 10:00AM ET on 29th February. This obviously makes the...
News It Sounds Like Street Fighter V Is Grabbing an Arcade Mode
Ready for another round?
We've seen a lot of complaints about Street Fighter V - heck, we've done plenty of moaning ourselves when we couldn't connect to our friends for a quick duel or two - but easily the most popular complaint that we've heard stems from the fact that the beat-'em-up doesn't have an arcade mode of any kind. Fortunately, Capcom...
Feature Happy 4th Birthday, PlayStation Vita
Yes, it's still here
Four years ago today, on the 22nd February 2012, Sony bestowed upon the Western world its newest handheld gaming system: the PlayStation Vita.

News Ubisoft Really Is Desperate to Break Records with The Division
Like, really desperate
Is this really necessary? Tom Clancy's The Division is riding high on pre-order charts, has a ton of marketing muscle behind it, and is clearly going to be a very popular game, so we're not sure why publisher Ubisoft is desperate for it to break records. Alas, it's had its PR team blast out some big news today: the game's beta...
News Oh Dear, PES 2016's Euro 2016 Update Only Has 15 Licensed Teams
Bad news for all you Romaniacs
After Konami's faffing around with some rather important transfer updates for PES 2016 last year, it promised that all owners would get the upcoming Euro 2016 DLC for free, instead of having to buy it. Still, our friends at Eurogamer have reported that Konami has announced that only 15 out of the 24 teams in Euro 2016...

News UK Sales Charts: Street Fighter V Cowers to the Power of Street Fighter IV
Maybe it should reconsider its fist?
Street Fighter V hasn't got off to a great start in the UK sales charts, failing to KO Street Fighter IV's week one sales record all the way back in 2009. While some will see this as a sharp decline, it's perhaps worth remembering that the game did only release on one system, and will have seen a much larger...

Tactical advantage
"Would you play a Dragon Age Tactics game?" asks series executive producer Mark Darrah over on Twitter. The BioWare veteran even posted a poll on the social media platform, with 49 per cent of voters answering "Yes!" We suppose that means we could be getting a spin-off Dragon Age game in the future, then. Sure, it's a bit of an...

Dead or alive
We'd almost forgotten that The Walking Dead games can literally be boiled down to a spate of trying decisions, but the launch trailer for upcoming mini-series Michonne hammers that point home, showing the titular hero stressed up to the eyeballs as she tries to survive in a harsh post-apocalyptic world. We'd rather feed our brains to...
