News From Software Seemingly Recruiting for Dark Fantasy Action RPG
Born of the blood
Sony only really needs to utter two words to steal E3 2017 in a couple of months: Bloodborne 2. The original may not have been the biggest seller ever – it still performed pretty well, of course – but among hardcore gamers the series is an absolute show-stopper for sure. And it's got to be happening, right? Well, the developer...

News In Case You Missed It, Skyrim's Glorious Soundtrack Is Now on Spotify
Shout it louder
Apparently this happened back in March, but it totally passed us by - and as such, it seems like the perfect news story for an especially slow Sunday. The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim's soundtrack is now available on Spotify - the streaming music service that you can download on PlayStation 4. If you're not sure how to steam Spotify on...
News PS5 Could Launch As Early As Next Year, Reckons Analyst
Pretty bloody unlikely, though
One analyst believes that Sony is readying the PlayStation 5 for release in 2018 – but we respectfully disagree.

Guide May 2017 PS4 Games Release Dates
All upcoming PlayStation 4 launches in for May 2017
After the post-fiscal year madness of April 2017, the PlayStation 4 release date slate for May 2017 is much quieter. That's not to say there are an absence of games to pad the time prior to E3 2017, though, with some fairly big titles like Prey, Injustice 2, and RiME due out. In the PlayStation VR...

Syberia 2 was released a mere two years after the original,...

Poll Are You Happy with May 2017's PlayStation Plus Games?
Is it really such a strong month?
With news having slowed to a crawl as the industry preps itself ahead of E3 this summer, it's only fitting that we end the week with a quick and easy poll. It's been a while since we polled you lot on the quality of PlayStation Plus and its 'free' games, but we reckon May's selection is actually one of the more...

News Capcom Is Currently Working on a 'Major' Unannounced Game
Due out this fiscal year
Oh Capcom, you tease. Buried in the company's latest business overview document, the publisher mentions a "major title" that it plans on releasing before the end of this fiscal year - that's before the 31st March 2018, in case you're not one for technical terms. Now, this could be absolutely anything, but the wording at...
News Dragon Quest XI Snags a Right Royal PS4 Bundle
Launching alongside game in Japan
Despite its presence on the Nintendo 3DS as well, Dragon Quest XI is likely to be a gigantic seller for Sony when it releases this summer on the PlayStation 4.

Poll Should Sony Make a PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale Sequel?
And what kind of game should it be?
Thanks to some flaky fakes, PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale is back in the headlines. There's no sign that Sony's going to revive the mascot mash-up on the PlayStation 4, but the renewed interest invites an interesting question: should it? And if your answer to that is a resounding yes, then what direction...
News PS4 Shipments Pass 60 Million as PlayStation Nears Record Profit

News Injustice 2's Joker Is a Hobo with a Happy Face
Why so serious?
While there are some questionable character designs in Injustice 2, we must admit we quite like the title's take on sinister supervillain The Joker. With overgrown green locks and a purple trench coat, the character maintains elements of his comic book counterpart, but is unlike any version of the baddie that we've seen before. He...
News LocoRoco Remastered Goes Full-Tilt on 9th May
About a blob
There was a period during the PlayStation Portable era where Japan Studio was pumping out some brilliant handheld titles, but they never really got the traction that they deserved.

All we know about...
News This Isn't Your First Look at a PlayStation All-Stars Sequel
Rubbish
Whether or not PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale was a good game is up for debate, but should there ever be a successor, it would be fascinating to see what direction Sony took.

Top of the pops
In a year that's continuously exceeded expectations, you weren't going to bet against Puyo Puyo Tetris being anything less than outstanding, were you? SEGA's gaudy puzzle-'em-up is a real joy, blending the breakneck brick building of Tetris with the more methodical splotch popping of the less-popular Puyo Puyo – sometimes on the...
News Holy Crap, Bandai Namco Is Bringing Gundam Versus West on PS4

We were casually browsing YouTube when we stumbled across a brand new video from Bandai Namco - namely a Western announcement trailer for Gundam Versus, which is due out on PlayStation 4 in Japan soon. The latest game in the hit Japanese series, Gundam Versus sees teams of two mobile suits go head-to-head...

Despite selling over 3.5 million units so far
Resident Evil 7: Biohazard has failed to meet the sales expectations of publisher Capcom, the firm's latest financial report has revealed.

Pray for PREY
A quick heads-up for those out of the loop: PREY's demo is out now on the PlayStation 4 – in Europe at least. The opening hour is still planned for release in North America, but it looks like Bethesda has hit a snag that it's trying to rectify as we type. Hopefully that'll be sorted over the next few hours. Still, for those of you...

News Capcom: Street Fighter V Taught Us We Need to Launch a Fully Featured Game
Publisher won't repeat same mistake
Street Fighter V is a great game, there's just nowhere near enough of it.

News Persona 5 Streamers Can Now Go Further Into the Game Without Annoying Atlus
Yay?
Right, so when Persona 5 launched earlier this month, publisher Atlus made it clear that it didn't want anyone spoiling the game's story - whether by screenshot, video, or livestream. The title blocks the PlayStation 4's share button for a start, and in a statement released by the company, it warned that those who share footage past a certain...

Feature Call of Duty: WWII - 5 Things You Need to Know
World at war
Activision really wants you to know that Call of Duty: WWII is going back to its roots. Today's livestream included enough utterances of the phrase "boots on the ground" to sink an aircraft carrier; the double-jumping exo-suits of more recent entries have been completely removed, and replaced by a more – for want of a better word –...

Get hooked
Flinthook is a prime example of how the execution of an idea is often more important than the idea itself. At first glance, it seems like any other modern roguelike, running from one procedurally-generated, 16-bit era inspired room to the next, shooting enemies for cash that you use to buy supplies and power-ups along the way. But under...
News Call of Duty: WWII Official Reveal Trailer Brings a Big Budget

Boots on the ground
It leaked earlier in the year, but there are still so many Call of Duty: WWII questions that need answering.

News You Probably Don't Know What Fate/Extella Is, But There's a New One in the Works
Apologies if you do
Earlier in the year, we reviewed a hack and slash title by the name of Fate/Extella: The Umbral Star - think Dynasty Warriors set in cyberspace and you're kind of on the right track. If that sounds incredibly niche then that's because it is - but that doesn't change the fact that we thought it was a very fun and fast paced action...

Review Sniper: Ghost Warrior 3 (PS4)
Ghost in the hell
After our multiple hours with Sniper: Ghost Warrior 3, we don't see it stalking much besides the bargain bin.

Batsman out of Hell
You'd be right to assume that the title of Episode 4 in Telltale's latest The Walking Dead story A New Frontier is a reference to disgraced baseball star Javier Garcia's biggest decision: family or friends? Thicker Than Water explores whether the everyman would be better off siding with his brood or buddies, and it prompts plenty...

Resident Evil 7's free DLC pack has been pushed back until an undisclosed later date.

Revenue to go towards tournament prize fund
Can we safely say that Capcom is all in on e-sports at this point, and won't be responding to the complaints that single player fans had with Street Fighter V?

Realistically, Final Fantasy VII Remake and Kingdom Hearts III were never going to release in 2017. Heck, at this rate, we'll be lucky to see either of them at E3 this summer. But just in case you're still harbouring some hope that one of them will hit the PlayStation 4 before the year is out, we'd recommend giving this document...
