News UK Sales Charts: WipEout Omega Collection Earns an Elite Pass
First ever number one for franchise
We’re going to blow your mind a bit here: WipEout Omega Collection has scored the first ever UK sales charts number one in the iconic series’ history. Yes, that’s really true – it’s the first WipEout game ever to top the British sales charts. Has your mind been blown? We’re pretty bloody shocked...
Talking Point What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 172
The calm before the storm
E3 2017 begins in earnest this weekend with a handful of media briefings, but there’s plenty of time for gaming while you wait for all of the shows to get underway. The question is: what games will be part of your pre-presser warm-up? You know the drill by now. Graham Banas, Reviewer: With all sorts of E3 conferences to...
News Japanese Sales Charts: Tekken 7 Juggles Its Way to Number 1
Tekken it higher
Well, there's only one worthwhile story to extract from the latest Japanese sales charts. Soaring straight to the top of the software list, Tekken 7 shifted 58,736 copies on PlayStation 4 during its debut. Certainly not an amount worth shouting about, but it's worth remembering that the series has traditionally moved more units in...
Store Update 6th June 2017 (Europe)
Checkered flag
If racing games are your thing, then you’re in for a treat this week. Both remaster WipEout Omega Collection and sequel DiRT 4 are headliners on the European PlayStation Store this time.

Want something new to play? Look no further than the PlayStation Store, where June 2017’s roster of free PlayStation Plus games are available now – in Europe at least.

News UK Sales Charts: Tekken 7 Lands Series' First Number One in 20 Years
83 per cent of copies sold on PS4
Tekken 7 has become the first entry in Bandai Namco’s iconic brawler brand to top the UK sales charts in almost two decades. The previous entry to achieve such a feat was Tekken 3 all the way back in 1998, which is frankly incredible. A whopping 83 per cent of retail copies were sold on the PlayStation 4 – one...
Talking Point What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 171
Almost forgot to ask
Guess who forgot about WAYP this week? In your humble host’s defence, the Bank Holiday has messed up our perception of time – and, like, E3 2017 is approaching so… Anyhoo, we have an amazing team of scribes here who dropped everything at a moment’s notice to shoot their itinerary over. That or they just so happened to be...
Game of the Month Top 4 PlayStation Games of May 2017
Whimsy, Batman, shadow things, and exploding eyeballs
Yikes, it's the summer of 2017 already. The year seems to be flying by, but at least we've had more than our fair share of gaming goodness so far - and May wasn't found lacking for quality titles, either. As always, we got our team of writers together in order to vote for the best game of last...
News Quantic Dream's Heavy Rain Has Been a Huge Success
Exceeds 4.5 million sales globally
Heavy Rain hasn’t aged especially well, but the game was ground-breaking when it first released in 2010, delivering a grounded interactive adventure that would go on to influence the likes of Telltale and beyond. And Parisian developer Quantic Dream has announced that as of 31st March, the release has sold...

News June 2017 PlayStation Plus Games Announced
A nice bit of variety
Sony has revealed your PlayStation Plus titles for June 2017, and as it turns out, the recent leak was correct. Indeed, PlayStation 4's looking at a strong offering with Life Is Strange and Killing Floor 2 leading the way. That's not bad at all, is it? Both are quite highly rated, and they each present something completely...
News Japanese Sales Charts: Ys VIII Dashes Straight to Number 1 as PS4 Stays Quiet
Guilty Gear also rocks into top 5
We'd still classify this as a pretty boring instalment of the Japanese sales charts, but at least we've got a few things to write about this time around. First off, the latest Ys game, Ys VIII: Lacrimosa of Dana, shot straight to the top of the software charts, selling a kind-of-okay-but-actually-pretty-low 27,741...
Store Update 30th May 2017 (Europe)
Tekken the mick
We’re almost in June, and the first of a trifecta of PSone franchises is scheduled to release in a matter of days. Tekken 7 is due out this Friday, but if you can’t wait that long, then there’s Danger Zone, Star Trek: Bridge Crew, and the final episode in The Walking Dead: A New Frontier to look forward to. What are you...
News UK Sales Charts: Injustice 2 Slaps Down Overwatch
NetherRealm's brawler on top
Injustice 2 juggled its way to a second flawless victory this week, beating away strong competition from a resurgent Overwatch – itself enjoying its first anniversary event. Grand Theft Auto V looted third position, while FIFA 17 and PREY made up the remainder of the top five. Dishonored 2 re-entered the charts in...
Reaction Remembering PS3 - The Console That Wouldn't Quit
Two steps forward, one step back
The PlayStation 3 showed two sides to Sony. At launch, the device was nothing short of a disaster: overpriced, over-engineered, and out-of-touch with consumers’ wants and needs, it was the manifestation of a decade’s worth of hubris – the product of a company who thought that it could do no wrong. But three...
News Sony Says Goodbye to the PS3 After 10 Years on the Market
So long, old friend
Sony has announced that PlayStation 3 production has ended in Japan, which essentially means that the console is done and dusted. Back in March, the company said that the end would soon be coming, and now it's put the final nail in the coffin. The PS3 launched over a decade ago in its homeland; it'll be 11 years old this...
Talking Point What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 170
Warm up
The sun’s been shining for two or three days here in the UK, which means after much yearning for summer, the British people have turned to an age old complaint: “It’s too hot!” And, frankly, it is – so we’ll be hunkering down in our man cave and playing some games. Here’s what’s on the agenda. Sammy Barker, Editor: I’ve...
News Cars 3 Looks Driven to Win in PS4, PS3 Trailer
Grease Lightning
Little known secret: Cars 2 on the PlayStation 3 was actually a pretty decent little arcade racer. Cars 3: Driven to Win looks to follow in its predecessor’s footsteps, and while the Pixar spin-off is clearly not going to win any originality awards, it sure could prove a fun little distraction this summer. This gameplay trailer...
News Japanese Sales Charts: PS4 Steady as Sales Slow Down
Calm before the Dragon Quest?
The post-Golden Week slump in Japan is still very real, with little to shout about in this week’s Media Create report. PREY was the “hottest” new release of the week, selling 7,105 units on the PlayStation 4. Danganronpa 1/2 Reload also charted for Sony’s new-gen system, shifting 3,880 units. You’ve got to...
Store Update 23rd May 2017 (Europe)
Time for RiME
It’s yet another pleasant week on the European PlayStation Store this time. Big name brands may be out, but there’s plenty to look forward to, such as long awaited cel-shaded adventure RiME and psychological horror Get Even. There’s also a new game for the Vita called Plantera, which seems to be parodying the metal band of a...
News UK Sales Charts: PlayStation VR Exclusive Farpoint Shoots Up Second
Injustice served in first
Looks like Sony’s enormous marketing spend paid off, as PlayStation VR first-person shooter Farpoint has entered the UK sales charts in second position this week – an impressive achievement considering the increased cost of the PlayStation VR Aim Controller bundle and the slim install base of the headset itself. It...
Talking Point What Free June 2017 PlayStation Plus Games Do You Want?
Predictions, please
We’re nearing the end of another month, which means that attention must turn away from the current crop of PlayStation Plus goodies and towards June 2017’s lineup. We’re not entirely sure when the roster will be announced – most likely it’s going to be 31st May – but we’re fully expecting the freebies to be...
Talking Point What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 168
Canary wharf
The Premier League comes to a conclusion this weekend, but the season’s far from over, with a series of big finals to follow over the coming week or so. It does mean that our weekends are about to become even free-er, though, with no footie on the telly to distract us from clearing our backlogs. No excuses anymore. Sammy Barker,...
News April 2017 NPD: Persona 5 Proves JRPGs Still Have Pulling Power
Atlus title debuts second in USA charts
You know how these NPD sales charts work by now, right? Typically the uber-mainstream titles all move to the top, while the more core gamer franchises secure a token appearance towards the bottom. Except that hasn’t really happened this time: Persona 5 finished second in April 2017. This is an...
News Japanese Sales Charts: PS4 Suffers Another Sales Dip During Post-Holiday Period
Yawn
Jeeeeez, when will it end? For weeks now we've been struggling to make articles out of the latest Japanese sales charts because... Well, there really hasn't been much to write about from a PlayStation perspective. Unfortunately, that's also the case this week; not a single new PlayStation 4 title entered the top 20. Of course, this was always...
News PES 2018 Plays a Long Ball to PS4, PS3 on 14th September
Konami wants to Pique your attention
There’s no Messi-ng around from Konami this year: PES 2018 has been announced for the PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 3, with a 14th September release date in Europe. Despite the publisher promising the Real deal, it’s Barcelona who will grace the cover of this year’s release – like, pretty much the...
Store Update 16th May 2017 (Europe)
The Surge! Injustice 2! Farpoint!
Corrr, it’s a big’un on the European PlayStation Store – and no, that opening salvo was not supposed to be a quote from a Carry On film. New releases this week include small, insignificant titles like… Oh, er, The Surge, Injustice 2, and Farpoint. We’re being sarcastic by the way – those are all arguably...
News UK Sales Charts: PREY Hunts Down Mario Kart in Second Week
Bethesda's first number one since DOOM
PREY didn’t get off to the best start in the UK sales charts, but it seems word of mouth – and the first proper batch of reviews – has perhaps helped the first-person shooter to fare better, as it’s leapfrogged Mario Kart 8 Deluxe to take the top spot this time. Grand Theft Auto V also climbed above...
News Wait! There's a Flash Sale on the US PlayStation Store Now
Save big on sci-fi titles
Wait, what? There’s a new Flash Sale on the North American PlayStation Store? Well, then. This one’s set to run until 08:00 PT on Monday, 15th May, so you’ve still got a little bit of time to take advantage of it. The theme this time is sci-fi, so highlights on the PlayStation 4 include DOOM for $19.79,...

Dark side
We’re getting perilously close to E3 2017 now, but we’re trying not to think about that. Instead, it’s actually surprisingly busy here at Push Square Towers for May, with the release calendar showing no signs of slowing down really. Much of the team is on review duty, with several big games being worked on as we write. Sammy Barker,...
News Japanese Sales Charts: Golden Week Winds Up Weak
Nothing to see here
Golden Week did little to propel hardware or software sales in Japan, as Mario Kart 8 Deluxe once again ruled the roost. PlayStation 4 hardware enjoyed a small bump, but it was the Xbox One that scored the biggest increase – even if its numbers are little more than a statistical error at this point. NieR: Automata prevented...
News May Sale Plunges PS4 Prices on EU PlayStation Store
Summer time
Summer is nearing, which means that the release calendar is ever so slightly clearing. Don’t let that stop you from taking a trip to the PlayStation Store, though, as Sony has rolled out a brand new batch of savings in Europe to keep you indoors while the sun shines outside. These new May savings span a scattershot of titles, many of...
Store Update 9th May 2017 (Europe)
Livin' la vida LocoRoco
It’s a niche week on the European PlayStation Store, but don’t let that turn you away. LocoRoco Remastered is clearly the headline new arrival, but it’s joined by NBA Playgrounds, Resident Evil Code Veronica X, Lethal League, Polybius, Strafe, and much more – all worth checking out. Do let us know what you’re...
Video The History of the PlayStation Store
A decade of digital
A little over ten years ago, Sony cut the ribbon on a new virtual shopping plaza: the PlayStation Store. Opening for business alongside the PlayStation 3, the inaugural digital storefront was as rudimentary as these things get: it was essentially a web page with a couple of games for sale and some trailers. Who could have...
News Japanese Sales Charts: PS4 Numbers Enjoy a Nice Boost Despite Lack of New Games
PS4 jumps above 20k once again
Here at Push Square we like to have a bit of meat on our articles - just relaying the facts gets a little boring after a while. However, there are times when there simply isn't much that we can add to a topic - and that's definitely the case with the latest Japanese sales charts. With no new PlayStation 4 titles...
News UK Sales Charts: Mario Kart Eats PREY Alive
Bethesda's latest falls 600 units short
PREY hunted down Mario Kart 8 Deluxe in the latest UK sales charts, but it couldn’t topple the Nintendo Switch exclusive. Word is that Bethesda’s reboot fell just 600 units short of the kart racer, though the Blue Shell flingin’ favourite was itself 71 per cent down week-over-week. While we’re not...
Soapbox The Persona Series and Difficulty: Is Easier Always Better?
Charlotte Cutts on Persona 5 and its relative easiness
WARNING: This article contains heavy spoilers for Persona 3/Persona 5 and mild spoilers for Persona 4. On finishing Persona 5 at the weekend, I felt what I always feel at the end of a gruelling 80-hour role-playing game-fest: equal parts sad and relieved. I’d played the game on...

A little PREY
If you include all of the special editions, we’re well on our way to 200 issues of WAYP now, which is frankly incredible.

News Sony Celebrates Golden Week with PS4 Game Sale on NA PlayStation Store
PS3 and Vita also well represented
Golden Week is a national holiday in Japan, so it seems only fair to acknowledge it with a bunch of discounts on the North American PlayStation Store. The platform holder's knocking up to 80 per cent off a bunch of popular Eastern titles through 09:00 PT on 9th May – and that extends to some anime in the movies...

Japanese Tetris, sexy masks, cursed families, and phantom thieves
Wow, we're really rocketing towards the summer now aren't we? A little while back it felt like 2017 had only just begun, but here we are five months in and we're buried beneath a mountain of PlayStation 4 goodness. Sony's console has smashed it out of the park so far this year, and...

PS4 sales continue to drop, though
Dark Souls III: The Fire Fades Edition - which includes all the game's downloadable content - has dodge rolled its way into the Japanese software charts, shifting 33,088 copies and landing in third place. Not too shabby for a re-release, but then, there's not much else to write about this time around. Yep, it's...

Ubisoft triumphs in slow week
In a week with very few changes in the UK sales charts, Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon: Wildlands has once again proven that hardcore gamers don't have their finger on the casual market's pulse, hugging the summit like a friendly bear. Grand Theft Auto V, FIFA 17, LEGO Worlds, and Rocket League all rounded out the top five,...

Talking Point What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 164
Post-Easter play sessions
We're entering the quiet build-up to E3 2017 now, where genuine news slows and teases increase. The number of big new titles also takes a tumble, although there's never any shortage of software on the PlayStation 4, is there? We suspect that the next half-dozen issues of WAYP are going to be more about backlogs, but with...
News So How Does Persona 5 Compare Between PS4 and PS3?
Let's find out
Digital Foundry is back with yet another graphical comparison video, this time taking a look at Persona 5 on PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 3.

News Japanese Sales Charts: PS4 Numbers Continue to Drop as Software Dries Up
Yawn
The Japanese sales charts haven't made for especially interesting reading in weeks - at least as far as PlayStation goes. Since the launch of the Nintendo Switch last month, the PlayStation 4 has been pushed out of focus due to a lack of notable software releases. Naturally, this also means that hardware figures are in a gradual decline, with...
News Scheduled PlayStation Network Maintenance Returns Next Week
But it shouldn't really affect you
People like to complain, but there's no doubt that the PlayStation Network has improved a lot these past couple of years. There hasn't been a proper outage in months, and things generally feel much more stable these days than they did at the start of the generation. Still, maintenance is required if an online...

Atlus JRPG drops out of the Top 40 entirely

Poll Should Sony Be Looking to Add Refunds to PSN?
Cash back
This is an article that we've had on the backburner for a while now, but Microsoft has somewhat forced our hand.

News Japanese Sales Charts: Switch Steady As All Other Systems Slump
A slow week in the East
There's really not much to say in what was comfortably one of the slowest weeks for the Japanese games industry in some time.

Well deserved, too
What the heck is this? A Japanese role-playing game not named 'Final Fantasy' at number one? Surely not?

Spring time
We're into April now, which means that Easter is right around the corner and summer looms temptingly on the horizon.

Persona 5 is a certified hit for Atlus, as the company has announced that over 1.5 million copies have been shipped worldwide.

News Japanese Sales Charts: Musou Stars Barely Shines as PS4 Has a Quiet Week
Slow and steady
There's no point in trying to sugarcoat it: these latest Japanese sales charts really aren't all that interesting.
