Review Attack on Titan: Wings of Freedom (PS4)
Maybe necks time
While it's a common story, Attack on Titan managed to pull this particular scribe into the anime world a couple years ago. How could it not? It has a striking art style with bold lining and subdued colour, a European setting with an intricate culture and inventions, and an irresistible world that draws you in with its mysteries and...
News Resident Evil 7 Sounds More Like Silent Hill Than Ever
Happy ever after?
Here's the sum of everything we know about Resident Evil 7: it's coming out on 24th January. Okay, we know a little bit more about the game than that, but you get the idea – Capcom is really playing its blood splattered cards close to its chest with this one. And that's exciting, because it'll be more of a surprise when you...
Mission Blog Chapter 2 - Systematic
Infinite improbability
I was only my second star system in – now named Coaster, of course – but already it felt like I was in a whole new place. The Gek space station was a silhouette against a vivid burnt orange backdrop, and a couple of freighter ships warped imposingly close, blocking my view of the nearest planet. There were very few planets...
Push Rewind More PS4 Slim Leaks, PlayStation Plus Prices, PlayStation Now
Slim shady
Another week draws to a close, which means that we're now days away from seeing what Sony's got in store at next week's PlayStation Meeting press conference. And of course, the PlayStation 4 Slim has continued to dominate the headlines over the past few days, as the console has continued to filter out into the public. The platform...
Video Watch Us Try to Solve Simple Puzzles in Deus Ex: Mankind Divided on PS4
Up and Adam
Curse you block puzzle! Curse you to the deepest recesses of the Czech Republic! My Deus Ex: Mankind Divided livestream was going swimmingly until I happened upon a three brick brainteaser. Watch me get stumped all over again in the video embedded above.

Ante-hero
There was a point ten years ago when it felt like the popularity of poker had reached fever pitch. You couldn't turn on late night television without it appearing on more than one channel, and there always seemed to be some bloke down the pub who swore he'd made a serious chunk of change online. This rise in gambling websites left poker...
Review AdVenture Capitalist (PS4)
Pass the buck
Oh the sweet, sweet irony, Sammy. You dump on No Man's Sky for being duller than a charity shop's clothing rack, and now you're going to try and act like AdVenture Capitalist is worth the free download from the PlayStation Store. Biased! Bullsh*t! Never visiting this website again! Bet you didn't even play it with a steering wheel, did...
Feature 5 PS4 Exclusives That Are Flying Under the Radar
Double-A
It's around this point in the generation where Sony's lineup really starts to swell, and we saw at E3 2016 earlier in the year that it's making a serious investment into exclusive PlayStation 4 software. With the likes of God of War, Spider-Man, and Horizon: Zero Dawn all on the way, the future looks bright for exclusives in this...
Valleys of the 40s
Every so often, a year will inexplicably become themed around a certain weapon or piece of equipment. 2012 was the year of the bow and arrow, and it appears that 2016 will become synonymous with the grappling hook. Nathan Drake took one into his final adventure in Uncharted 4: A Thief's End, and upcoming games such as Titanfall 2,...
Review Hatsune Miku: Project Diva X (PS4)
It's got the X-Factor
One of the songs in the brand new rhythm game, Hatsune Miku: Project Diva X, is called Holy Lance Explosion Boy, and it's about an unsettlingly young boy accidentally getting someone pregnant, featuring lines like: "This 0.02mm barrier is seriously getting annoying." If the thought of a kawaii, virtual boy's condom splitting...

Video You Really, Really Should Play Inside on PS4
Don't be on the outside
Whatever you think of our review policy here at Push Square Towers – and whether we should invest our biscuit budget into an office steering wheel – there's one thing that we can all agree: 10/10 review scores are rare. In fact, while some sites may use the upper-end of their scale liberally, we like to be a bit more...

Talking Point What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 132
August's almost over
The weekends do come around quick, but given that this is inexplicably a three-day holiday in the UK, you won't hear us complaining. In fact, between the football and the final barbecues of the summer, we'll be squeezing in plenty of gaming. Here's what we're playing. Sammy Barker, Editor: I've been having fun hopping between...

News One UK Retailer Will Happily Sell You a PS4 Slim Today
Er
This is so bizarre: the PlayStation 4 Slim isn't even announced yet, but there are four available from the CEX in Widnes right now. Somehow, the unannounced console has filtered into the retail channel in the UK, with the leaks seemingly centred in the North Western part of the country. So, if you fancy one of the new systems right now, you may...
Poll Are You Still Playing No Man's Sky?
Or have you lost interest?
It's been a weird old ride for No Man's Sky. Hyped up to infinity and beyond by enthusiastic fans, the press, and just about everyone in between, the space survival sim was met with divided opinion when it launched earlier this month, and even now, people still can't seem to decide whether it's good, bad, or just straight...
News PSN Down Just in Time for the Weekend
Typical, eh?
Uh oh, it looks like the PlayStation Network's down. We can't sign into the service here at Push Square Towers, and we're getting buried in reports from unhappy users. Sony's official status website suggests that there's nothing wrong, but clearly, that isn't the case. We're not looking to jump the gun here, but it's at least worth...

Just playing the game, having a BUD
It was perhaps a little surprising to see a sequel to last year's botanical platforming adventure Grow Home, especially one that would release so swiftly. Grow Up released less than 12 months after its predecessor, and we were curious to find out what could've changed in that short space of time. As it turns out,...

News Only the First Half of Final Fantasy XV Is Open World, Apparently
This will go down well
Noct and the gang just can't catch a break, can they? Hot on the heels of questionable downloadable content plans for Final Fantasy XV, director Hajime Tabata has spilled some details on the title's overall structure - and the internet is already awash in knee-jerk reactions. Translated by
News Would You Kindly Watch Over 30 Minutes of BioShock on PS4?
All spliced up
Phwoar! These look good, don't they? 2K Games has released around ten minutes of footage from each game included in BioShock: The Collection, which is set to launch on the PlayStation 4 next month. And it's a reminder of just how unique these games were on the PlayStation 3. All three titles look amazing, but BioShock: Infinite's...
News Final Fantasy XV Will Have Even More DLC Outside of the Season Pass
The saga continues
Good lord, it just never ends, does it? After last week's kerfuffle regarding the fact that Final Fantasy XV's season pass won't be included in the game's poorly named Ultimate Collector's Edition, game director Hajime Tabata has gone and told Famitsu that more downloadable content is planned that the aforementioned season pass...
News Sink Your Teeth into 15 Minutes of Vampyr PS4 Gameplay
Wham Bram
Life Is Strange dev DONTNOD has deployed the first 15 minutes of gameplay from horror role-playing game, Vampyr. While this is all pre-alpha footage, it serves as a short introduction to the seedy streets of London, where a pandemic has sent the English capital into disarray. Dr Jonathan Reid, the protagonist, is a troubled soul – caught...
News PS4 Communities Now Support Up to 100k Members
Everyone's invited
Communities are a cool but underutilised feature on the PlayStation 4, allowing likeminded gamers to unite over certain titles or topics. If you weren't already aware, there's a Push Square group that you can join right now. The problem for bigger communities is that they were previously limited to 10,000 members. Sony's changing...
News The Division DLC Plans Pushed Back as Dev Works on Fixing the Core Game
The will to survive
Developer Ubisoft Massive has taken a step back and reanalysed its current situation following a rocky few months for The Division - its co-op based, loot-heavy shooter. The game launched back in March, and, as we recall, was hyped up to be the next big thing. And, while it did manage to make a splash initially, it quickly...

News People Hate Titanfall 2 So Much That the Dev's Had to Respond
Titan maul
We thought Titanfall 2 was really fun when we tried the Technical Test last weekend, but it's left some fans outraged. Chief among the complaints is the sequel's slower movement speed compared to the original, which Respawn Entertainment claims is designed to prompt more skilful firefights. It has, however, bowed to feedback, and says...
Ass-etto Corsa
With Project CARS already in the wild and Gran Turismo Sport on the way later this year, as well as other realistic and excellent racers of their own kind in DiRT Rally and F1 2016 already out, there's plenty of variation and choice in the racing simulator market on the PlayStation 4 right now. But having garnered a hefty following...
News No Mention of Dynasty Warriors 9 in Koei Tecmo's Tokyo Game Show Line Up
Don't count it out, though
With September's Tokyo Game Show looming, many fans of Koei Tecmo's Dynasty Warriors series have been speculating that Dynasty Warriors 9 may finally be revealed at this year's event - but sadly, the anticipated hack and slash sequel hasn't been named as part of the company's line up. Perhaps that's to be expected,...
Hands On Does PlayStation Now Stream Successfully to PC?
Power of the cloud
PlayStation Now's been misinterpreted by many. The cloud-streaming solution – often incorrectly labelled as Sony's answer to backward compatibility – is clearly an initiative in its infancy; the service that's available today represents the building blocks of a much bigger ambition, where PlayStation hardware is replaced by an...

News Call of Duty: Black Ops III Has Absolutely Lost the Plot
Salvation expansion launches on 6th September for PS4
This is what happens when you don't follow Call of Duty: Black Ops III for a year and wind up watching the trailer for its final expansion pack. Like seriously, what the absolute flying fig is going on here? Treyarch claims that Salvation will conclude an epic journey through space and time, as...

News Secure Your PSN Account with Two-Step Verification Now
Lock down
It's taken an embarrassingly long time to be introduced, but two-step verification is now available in most regions for the PlayStation 4. To set it up, scroll to 'Settings', 'PlayStation Network/Account Management', 'Account Information', 'Security', 'Two-Step Verification'. You'll obviously need a working mobile phone to set everything...
Interview Talking Attack on Titan: Wings of Freedom with Koei Tecmo
Development hurdles, adaptation, and original content
Starting with a hit manga series and since spinning off light novels, a wildly popular anime, several films (both animated and live-action), and a 3DS game, Hajime Isayama's Attack on Titan has enjoyed a level of success that easily matches the colossal stature of its unsettling antagonists. Now...
News New Berserk PS4 Screenshots Show Boss Characters in Bloody Action
The bigger they are
The official Berserk website has been updated with a ton of new screenshots from the PlayStation 4 version of the release, showcasing the game's newly confirmed playable character and a bunch of boss enemies that you'll have to bring down over the course of the title's story. Starting off with the aforementioned newcomer,...
News Battlezone Demonstrates Yet Again Why It's a PlayStation VR Must Own
Tanks very much
There's no question that Battlezone is the best PlayStation VR title that we've tried to date, so we didn't really need another trailer to sell us on the game. This clip does tease at tons of new features, though, including new enemy types, weapons, and even tanks. The cool thing about this game is that it's got a procedurally...
News Meet Your New Waifus in Gravity Rush 2 on PS4
Purrr
Sony's starting to reveal a little more about the plot and cast of Gravity Rush 2, with a new PlayStation Blog post detailing how feisty protagonist Kat and her comrade Syd will be whisked away to the mining settlement of Banga as part of the upcoming game. It's here that the twosome will happen upon the floating shanty's leader Lisa and her...
News Ride in Until Dawn: Rush of Blood's Rollercoaster of Death
Clown head
B*Witched and the Red Hot Chili Peppers may have sang about rollercoasters of love, but PlayStation VR exclusive Until Dawn: Rush of Blood's ghost train is a little rickety for romance. PlayStation Access has uploaded a pretty funny video of them checking out Supermassive Games' rails shooter, which includes ample screaming and...
News Dear Esther Strolls to PS4 on 20th September
One foot in front of the other
Those looking for a fresh dose of strolling simulator in their life may be enthused to learn that Dear Esther will walk 500 miles to the PlayStation 4 on 20th September. This is the acclaimed adventure game by Brighton-based developer The Chinese Room, and preceded Everybody's Gone to the Rapture on the PC. This new...
News Promising Supernatural Thriller Virginia Solves a Mystery on PS4 Next Month
Lynch mob
We're not going to lie to you: we hadn't heard of Virginia until today. But according to every article that we've read, the 505 Games published first-person thriller is one to watch – and it's coming to the PlayStation 4 starting 22nd September. As pointed out by the press release, the game's been inspired by genre-bending 90s shows like...
News Fallout 4's New Nuka World Trailer Shows the Sinister Side of Safety
Bottled
With Nuka World now only days away, Bethesda has saw fit to release a new trailer for Fallout 4's final slice of downloadable content - but don't go expecting a load of new gameplay. Instead, the developer's opted for another comical cartoon much like the title's S.P.E.C.I.A.L. video series. In this particular clip, Nuka World mascots...

News Japanese Sales Charts: Tales of Berseria Plunders the Top Spot on PS4
Another tale to tell
Well would you look at that, a reasonably important PlayStation 4 release has made it to the top of the Japanese software charts - and it's about bloody time. Bandai Namco's Tales of Berseria entered the charts with sales of 173,537 copies on Sony's current-gen console and 76,186 copies on PS3. At first glance, those figures...

The presser will...
News No Man's Sky PS4 Crashes Will Almost Be Eradicated with This Week's Patch
Nice to know
Crashes in video games are never fun. Even when you don't lose too much progress due to a crash, the simple fact that you know a specific title is capable of crashing can be enough to sour the experience. Since its launch, No Man's Sky has suffered from crashing issues on the PlayStation 4 - and we've seen plenty of players across the...
News Your First Look at Dark Souls III's DLC Is Delicious
To die for
Is this winning streak that From Software's on ever going to end? Just when we thought that we were done with Dark Souls III, it's only gone and raked us back in with this Ashes of Ariandel trailer. As is to be expected from the Japanese developer, this looks like a proper expansion, complete with a new frigid environment and fearsome...

Guide 10 Deus Ex: Mankind Divided Hints and Tips for New Agents
Augment your mind
Deus Ex: Mankind Divided can take a while to get used to. It's a complicated title that spreads itself across multiple genres, never quite settling on one specific brand of gameplay. As such, we've put together a list of ten relatively basic but very handy tips to get wannabe Interpol agents up and running. With any luck, these...
Talking Point What September PlayStation Plus Games Do You Want?
A lineup worthy of a price increase
To be brutally honest with you, we're not sure when Sony's going to announce September 2016's batch of free PlayStation Plus games – it could be this week or next. With the news that the service's price will be increasing from 22nd
Opinion Why the Heck Is Sony Making a PS4 Slim?
The not-so little question
So, the PlayStation 4 Slim is real, and Digital Foundry made a video to prove it. Then lawyers got involved, and the hastily recorded clip got removed – you know how it goes. Still, this has all happened rather fast, hasn't it? If you'd have asked us on Sunday morning whether Sony would make a more compact PS4 console,...
News Here's How Resident Evil 4 Looks on the PS4
Leon! Leon!
Resident Evil 4 needs no introduction – it's one of the greatest games ever made, after all. And it's coming to the PlayStation 4 in just about a week's time, so Capcom has released the first ever gameplay footage of that version. Unsurprisingly, it looks a lot like… Well, Resident Evil 4. What were you expecting? At the end of...
News Sony Sends Out Another Wave of PS4 Firmware 4.0 Beta Invites
Second time lucky
Potentially good news if you applied for the PlayStation 4 firmware 4.0 beta and didn't receive an invite, as Sony's sending out a second wave of emails. Maybe you'll get lucky this time around. The beta allows participants to sample the system's next update, which adds folders so that you can organise your games and apps, and...
Soapbox Why Sony Needs to Change Its Refund Policy
Sam Brooke makes a case for more lenient refunds
Sony's refund policy is as follows: "You can cancel a digital content purchase within 14 days of the date of transaction, provided that you have not started downloading or streaming it. Digital content that you have started downloading, streaming are not eligible for a refund unless the content is...
State of clay
Armikrog begins with such promise. Your introduction to this claymation world is a long and wonderfully weird theme song that serves as a prologue of sorts, and it leads into a beautifully animated cutscene that really showcases the talent on board. Many of the minds behind this Kickstarted adventure game are also responsible for The...
News The PS4 Slim Looks Much, Much Nicer Than You Think It Does
Short and sweet
One of the reasons Sony's so keen to shut down leaked images of the PlayStation 4 Slim is because, typically, the amateur snaps aren't especially flattering. Indeed, the platform holder's unannounced console has been deemed ugly from every corner of the web based on the handful of photos released, but it looks much nicer in the...
A bar set high
While Sony may not give the PlayStation Vita much love these days, others have set out to do so over the years to prove the handheld's worth. Digital Dreams was one such developer who exclusively released its debut title Metrico on the neglected platform in 2014. It received both glowing and scathing remarks for varying reasons, but...

Not your usual patch
Bethesda's reportedly fixed a bunch of issues with Fallout 4's Vault-Tec Workshop add-on, but this isn't your usual PlayStation 4 download.

Samurai showdown
Following up on April's alpha, the Nioh beta is out now on PlayStation 4.

Tuesday23rd Aug 2016
Step Inside
Reviewing Inside is a tough proposition. On the one hand, this is a game that is fully deserving of a write-up overflowing with superlatives. On the other hand, to describe practically anything that happens in the game in anything other than the vaguest of terms would be to rob the player of the joy of discovering those moments for...

Review The King of Fighters XIV (PS4)
Royal ruckus
While Capcom is rightly credited as the company which kick-started interest in the one-on-one fighting genre, there's another firm which built up comparable reputation in the field and – some would passionately argue – actually managed to trump the creator of Street Fighter on more than one occasion. SNK would become a household...

This video's going to get swiped pretty quickly if Digital Foundry's clip is anything to go by, but we'll report on it while it's live: the PlayStation 4 Slim comes with an updated DualShock 4 controller. While it looks identical in terms of form factor, there's a light been added to the touchpad. Yeah, we've no idea...
Monday22nd Aug 2016
Wriggly good
Explosions litter the battlefield, reducing soldiers to nothing more than corpses and gravestones. A poisonous gas sneaks around, grasping its enemies and withering them away to a point of no return. A hawk-eyed missile eerily seeks out its victim, locating and dispatching them with mechanical ease. War, you see, has changed. But all...

News Leaked PS4 Slim Console Confirmed to Be Legit
Watch it powering up
We knew that last night's PlayStation 4 Slim leaks were legit – you don't get that many pictures from so many different angles without some level of authenticity. But as a few people have pointed out, in this age of 3D printers you can never be too careful. Digital Foundry decided to visit the person who purchased the console...
Review Hitman: Episode 4 - Bangkok (PS4)
Too many Kooks
Like milk and cookies, fish and chips, and a copy of Ride to Hell: Retribution and the nearest volcano, hotels and Hitman go together very well. There's something about the maze of rooms, the abundance of staff, and the classy yet clandestine nature of these establishments that always make good missions for Agent 47, and the episodic...
News Mafia III's Stunning Sixties Soundtrack Could Be the Best of the Open World Bunch
Rolling Stones, Beach Boys, James Brown, and more
We love a good licensed soundtrack in our games. Sometimes, a fitting selection of tunes can really solidify the feel of a release - the inclusion of Stan Bush's The Touch in Saints Row IV was inspired, for example - and with Mafia III, we've been hoping and praying for a stellar sixties soundtrack...

Spotlighting the English cast, there are clearly some passionate performances on show here, and it's nice to see so many voice actors invested in their characters. Of...
