News Big Yeetus, a Randomly Spawning Hammer, Will Shake Up Fall Guys Levels Soon
Yeet
Fall Guys is great and all, but until Season Two hits next month, we'll be playing all the same levels over and over. That's no real problem, as the game is brilliant fun, but it looks like Mediatonic is about to shake things up a little. In lieu of brand new stages, the developer is putting together a dangerous new hazard that could pop up in...

News PS5 Indie Kena: Bridge of Spirits Fronts Game Informer Magazine
True spirit
One of the best things about gaming in 2020 is that any game can become a breakout hit. We’ve seen Fall Guys become the standout story of the summer, and while it was flanked by juggernauts sequels like Horizon Forbidden West and Gran Turismo 7 at the PlayStation 5’s reveal event, Kena: Bridge of Spirits is arguably one of the most...
News The Marvel's Avengers Beta Was the Most Downloaded Beta in PlayStation History
Heroics
Marvel's Avengers is out right now on PS4 (if you nabbed the Deluxe Edition), and it's reasonably safe to assume that it'll be a big seller.

News For Real This Time, AT&T Won't Be Selling Warner Bros Games
Jokers
AT&T, you may recall, put Warner Bros Games up for sale as it attempts to clear some long-standing debt.

Random Don't Get Doritos Dust on Your DualSense with PlayStation Chip Picker
Other savoury snacks brands are available
A good ol’ gaming session isn’t the same without a big bag of Doritos to hand, but getting all that icky dust encrusted into your controller is never fun. To make matters worse, the PlayStation 5’s luxurious new DualSense pad comes in white by default; that’s going to turn a subtle shade of orange if...
News PS5 Doesn't Have an Optical Audio Port
Sound
Once again we’re relying on second-hand information to better understand the PlayStation 5, because it’s not like Sony to come out and tell us what it’s got planned for the platform, is it? So according to The Verge, the Japanese giant’s next-gen console will not have an optical audio port; it’s hardly surprising given the PS4 Slim...

News Madden NFL 21 Patch Outlined as Fans Urge NFL to Ditch EA Sports
#NFLDropEA
Whether or not you think Madden NFL 21’s gameplay has stagnated, there’s simply no denying that this year’s game lacks polish. Since reviewing the release, the title has hard crashed on us a couple of times, and has also got stuck in infinite loading screens. It’s really buggy, and some fans have simply had enough, leading to the...

Marvel's Avengers is out on PlayStation 4 today via the Deluxe Edition and so you might be wondering where all the reviews, and indeed the Push Square verdict, are.

News Demon's Souls PS5 Will Bring You Straight Back into the Action to Avenge Your Deaths
No time to dwell on your mistakes
No real surprise here, but you’ll be back into the action quicker than you can draw your sword in Demon’s Souls on the PlayStation 5, as Japan Studio and Bluepoint Games will be leveraging the next-gen console’s SSD to load data at “blistering” speeds. “As developers [of Demon’s Souls], we are already...
Mini Review Nexomon: Extinction - With an Update or Two, This Could Be a Solid Pokémon Clone
Nixomon
Nexomon: Extinction is the best Pokémon clone you'll find on PlayStation 4 -- but admittedly, that isn't saying much. The addictive quality of catching and training often cute, sometimes cool looking monsters is here, but the game as a whole is let down by some uneven design. Nexomon doesn't really care that it's a blatant Pokémon...

From the ashes
It's official: Gods & Monsters, the open world action title from the team behind Assassin's Creed Odyssey, is now called Immortals: Fenyx Rising. For now we'll resist the temptation to rant about how terrible that name is. The game was announced at E3 last year, but we've seen next to nothing of the project since. Fortunately,...

News PS5 Won't Play PS3, PS2, or PS1 Games
According to Ubisoft, anyway
In an unpredictable year, this is potentially the most expected article we’ll write in 2020, but the web is losing its collective mind all the same: the PlayStation 5 won’t play PS3, PS2, or PS1 games. The story comes courtesy of a Ubisoft FAQ page, and the information has since been removed. It’s unclear whether...
Review WRC 9 - A Compelling Rally Sim That's Gone from Good to Great
Don't confuse speed with haste
Annual games have a bit of a reputation for rehashing the same old thing year after year with only minor improvements. Some say it’s a license to print money. Rally is hardly in the mainstream, however, and neither is developer Kylotonn’s approach to the FIA World Rally Championship. With significant strides made...

The hazy fairy tale...
Review Madden NFL 21 - Football Brings All the Boys to the Yard
Fumble
Madden NFL 21 finds itself in a particularly peculiar position this year. The football simulation’s launching less than three months prior to the PlayStation 5, and while there will be a free upgrade to the next-gen console, it really shows. Despite bundling in a potential series cornerstone in the Yard, this is a relatively low-effort...
