News Sword Art Online: Fatal Bullet Looks Like Good Co-Op Fun in New Boss Gameplay
Team attack
We've been saying for a while now that Sword Art Online: Fatal Bullet looks like a step up over its predecessors. In particular, this new co-op gameplay from Japanese publication Dengeki looks like good fun as teams take on big boss enemies. Obviously we'll have to wait and see how well the gunplay and various other elements...
Guide Best PS4 Music of October 2017
Push it to the limit
As we start getting into the holiday season, the releases of big name games are ratcheting up as they do every year, which also means some major soundtracks are going to accompany these games. October offered a lot of quality music, most of it courtesy of the big budget stuff, but on any given month, if you dig deep enough, you...
News Destiny 2's Long Overdue HDR Patch Will Deploy Next Month
Look at those colours
A HDR patch for Destiny 2 has been promised for quite some time now, and thanks to the latest post over on Bungie's website, we now know when that will hit.

Dealer's choice
A mysterious dealer sits in a rickety wagon, casting your fate across the table in an ominous game of cards. He offers cryptic insight into the game itself while dictating your destiny as if it were preordained. This is the basic premise of Hand Of Fate, Defiant Development’s brawler cum tabletop RPG. The dealer presents your...
News PS4 Pro Owners Are More Likely to Own PlayStation VR
Headset's attach rate is quite high
According to London Studio’s Stuart Whyte, speaking at Develop: VR earlier today, PlayStation 4 Pro owners are more likely to own a PlayStation VR headset than anyone else. This makes sense for a couple of reasons: virtual reality is actually improved quite profoundly on Sony’s supercharged hardware – and...
News Sony Surveying Gamers on the DualShock 4
But to what end?
There’s a really interesting survey that Sony’s sent out regarding the DualShock 4, asking all sorts of specific questions about the controller. We can confirm that (select) UK gamers have been invited to complete the questionnaire, but we’ve been unable to confirm whether the form has been shared with players in other...

Moving on
It’s a strange world sometimes. It felt like Microsoft’s Kinect won the not-so memorable battle of the motion controllers, but as Xbox discontinues its clunky camera, the PlayStation Move is still trucking along. Originally released for the PlayStation 3 in 2010, the illuminating wands have found a new lease of life as part of...

News L.A. Noire Remaster Does Away with Its Often Confusing Trust, Doubt, Lie System
Chill out, Cole
There's a new trailer out for L.A. Noire's remaster, and it reveals a rather important change to one of the game's core gameplay systems. And yes, we know this is a Switch-specific video, but we don't see why this alteration would't be implemented in the PlayStation 4 version as well. Okay, so in the original L.A. Noire, you...
Game of the Month Top 4 PlayStation Games of October 2017
Nazis, orcs, farts, and sand
October was a pretty darn good month for PlayStation gaming. We gave out a bunch of high review scores, but as always, only one game can take home our coveted Game of the Month award. Without filling this opening paragraph with anymore fluff, let's get stuck right into it. Bronze Trophy: Middle-earth: Shadow of...
Rumour Ni no Kuni II Delayed into March on PS4
Nay no Kuni
Damn and blast and bugger, it looks like Ni no Kuni II: Revenant Kingdom may be delayed again. At the time of writing, the gorgeous looking role-playing game is due out on the 19th January in both North America and Europe, but according to a handful of posters on ResetEra, retailer Best Buy is sending out emails to inform customers...
News Monster Hunter: World Has a Full Clan System for Up to 50 Players
Squad goals
So it's already been established that Monster Hunter: World is the real deal. It ain't no watered down Western version of Capcom's creature-culling series, as was the worry of many. With that squared away, the publisher seems keen to point out what improvements the home console release is bringing to the Monster Hunter formula. One key...
News Yes! Great PS3, Vita JRPGs Trails of Cold Steel 1 and 2 are Coming to PS4 in 2018
Class act
This particular story has been bubbling away for a while now, but we've finally got official confirmation: Falcom is bringing The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel and The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel II to PlayStation 4 in 2018. The company made the announcement during its latest financial briefing. For those out of the...
News Assassin's Creed Origins Has Been Graphically Downgraded Since Launch on PS4, Say Some Players
Broken fixes?
A week ago, Assassin's Creed Origins got a huge post-launch patch. Update 1.03 added loads of stuff across the board while also fixing a whole list of smaller issues. Unfortunately, the patch seems to have had a negative impact on the game's overall presentation. At least, according to some eagle-eyed posters over on the official...
News Red Dead Redemption 2 Will Likely Be Rife with Microtransactions
Take-Two aiming to add additional purchases to all its games
You know how we all complain about microtransactions on forums and social media? Take-Two (the company that controls labels like Rockstar and 2K) literally doesn’t give a crap, as it’s cashing in big time on titles like Grand Theft Auto Online and NBA 2K18. In fact, “recurrent...
News Warframe's Big Open World Update Lands on PS4 Next Week for Free
Breathing space
If you really want to get stuck into it, Warframe can eat away hours upon hours of your time -- and the overall experience is about to get even bigger.

Hands On The Inpatient Shares Until Dawn's Penchant for Jump Scares
Boo
Yes, yours truly screamed. Are you happy now Simon Fitzgerald? Here your humble host was, sat in a partially empty room surrounded by kindly Sony temps, with cries muffled only by the cover of a PlayStation VR headset. Much like Until Dawn before it, The Inpatient cheats with its jump scares – but goddamn is it effective. (Everyone was too...
Review League of War: VR Arena (PS4)
Basic combat training
If there’s one thing League of War: VR Arena will be remembered for, it’s that utterly atrocious name. Seriously, it’s like a clueless investor looked at what’s popular right now and took a few buzzwords from that to form something slightly coherent. But alas, that’s not what we’re here to judge. The question...
News Portkey Games Is Likely to Bring Harry Potter to PS4
Harry Potter RPG incoming?
Here at Push Square Towers, we've been wanting a Harry Potter game on PS4 for quite some time.

The new developer is set to create new mobile and console games based in the Potter universe, with familiar...
News We Gave ELEX a 4/10, But We'll Admit That Its Accolades Trailer Is Pretty Great
ELEXellent
You know what's really cool about opinions? You don't necessarily have to share them with other people. Sadly, this is a fact of life that the internet gets wrong all too often, so it's actually quite refreshing to see THQ Nordic having a laugh with its accolades trailer for ELEX. The open world role-playing game launched last month on...
Hands On Detroit: Become Human's Escalating Tension Is Unparalleled
White knuckle ride
We’ve played Detroit: Become Human a handful of times now and our takeaway has always been the same: this is tense. Like, it’s really freakin’ tense. We’re, of course, referring to the hostage demo (again), where android detective Connor is tasked with defusing a rooftop situation that sees a small girl inches from the...
Review .hack//G.U. Last Recode (PS4)
Hacker’s paradise
It’s hard to believe that it’s been 15 years since the .hack franchise began. It was a franchise with a really unique setting – you were put in the shoes of someone playing a fictional MMORPG (Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game) called The World. As well as being able to play in The World, you could also log out...
Hands On Bravo Team Is Straight-Faced Co-Op Time Crisis for PlayStation VR
Guns up
There are nameless terrorists to slaughter and you’ve got an ally to help you get the job done: PlayStation VR first-person shooter Bravo Team doesn’t really need much introduction. Built with Sony’s underused but excellent PlayStation VR Aim Controller in mind, our hands on demo is set against the backdrop of a Golden Gate-esque...
News Assassin's Creed 'Officially Back' as Origins Doubles Syndicate's Sales
Did very well digitally
Assassin's Creed Origins is a very good game, and it seems to be reaping the rewards. Ubisoft has revealed that the latest open world stab-'em-up doubled previous title Assassin's Creed Syndicate's launch sales, which is obviously a big improvement, and exactly the kind of result that the publisher wants to see. There are a...
News Oh FFS, There's a Loot Cave in Destiny 2
The return
If you're a veteran Destiny player, then you probably know of -- or you've at least heard of -- the infamous loot cave that players farmed for precious engrams in the first game. Back in the early days of the original Destiny, the loot system wasn't exactly rewarding, and in order to bypass the grind, many players took to standing in...
News IO Interactive Hints at New Hitman Sequel
"We're making great progress"
The newly independent IO Interactive is working on a new Hitman game, which it seems won’t be a second season for its already successful reboot but instead an entirely new title. As part of a blog post celebrating the release of its recent Game of the Year edition, boss Hakan Abrak said that it’s making “great...
News Japanese Sales Charts: Call of Duty: WWII Guns Its Way to the Top
.hack also makes its way into top 5
The latest Japanese charts are in, and guess what? Call of Duty: WWII has done pretty well for itself. The very brown and grey shooter has topped the software list with an impressive 168,234 copies on PlayStation 4. The series has always done quite well in Japan, and these numbers further solidify its standing as...
Hands On DOOM VFR Cleverly Keeps You on the Move in PlayStation VR
Welcome to your DOOM
DOOM is not a stop and pop shooter. In last year’s franchise reboot, developer id Software transformed the kinetic nature of the original games into a game mechanic, with Glory Kills forcing you to get up close and personal with your demonic adversaries in order to recover ammunition and health. It was a genius system, forcing...
News Grand Theft Auto V Is Officially the Best Selling Game Ever
Finally beats out Wii Sports
At the rate that Grand Theft Auto V still sells, this news was inevitable. Rockstar's open world tale of crime and crazies is now the best selling game of all time, moving 85 million copies both physically and digitally. In other words, the title has finally leapfrogged Wii Sports, which sits at around 83 million...
News Free PlayStation VR Demo Disc Includes Unreleased Games
Moss! Star Child! The Persistence!
Remember when demo discs were a thing? There was a time many, many years ago when purchasing Official PlayStation Magazine felt like buying a new game, purely because you got a couple of demos to try. They were happier days. Anyway. Sony’s updated the demo disc that comes with all new PlayStation VR bundles, but...
Round Up Sonic Forces PS4 Reviews Strip Blue Blur's Rings
Could be worse
There’s no need for catty remarks from yours truly anymore, as it’s time for Sonic Forces (and its fanbase) to put up or shut up where critics are concerned. Hopefully the game’s good, but we can tell you that SEGA has decided not to send us code until after launch – and it seems like we’re not the only outlet in that boat...
Hands On Moss Is a Divine Demonstration of What PlayStation VR Can Do
Mice one
If you’re still not convinced by PlayStation VR then you simply have to play Moss, a cutesy puzzle platformer by Polyarc. We’ve previewed this a couple of times already on Push Square, but it’s the first time that yours truly has got some hands-on time. And it really is the revelation that everyone says it is: this is why virtual...
News Sony Bundles PS4 Pro with Five Games and Matches Xbox One X's Price
But it's sold out
There’s a good deal going around if you’re in the market for a spangly PlayStation 4 Pro: it includes five games. Well, technically Sony’s stretching that description a little bit as the package is padded by the addition of Horizon: Zero Dawn’s brand new
News Yankees Hero Aaron Judge Fronts MLB The Show 18
Releasing 27th March in a billion different forms
He hit a homerun with his very first at bat and is a hero among New York Yankees fans, so it’s no surprise to see Aaron Judge front up MLB The Show 18 – even if someone from World Series incumbents the Houston Astros may have been a more appropriate fit. Set to release on 27th March, Judge will...
Guide Assassin's Creed Origins Anubis Event - Where to Find Anubis and How to Beat Him

Guide PS4 Pro vs Xbox One X - Which One Should You Buy?
All the differences between Xbox One X and PS4 Pro
The introduction of the Xbox One X brings a new wrinkle to the ceaseless console war: a brand new mid-gen console upgrade vying for your cold-hard cash in the shadow of the more affordable Xbox One S and PlayStation 4 Slim. But with the PS4 Pro already approaching its first birthday, there are fresh...
News BioWare Celebrates Ten Years of Mass Effect with N7 Day 2017
Making history
Today's the 7th November, also known as N7 Day, if you happen to be a massive Mass Effect nerd. For a decade now, BioWare has been using N7 Day to celebrate its sci-fi series, wheeling out announcements or reveals as well as spotlighting community efforts. Sadly, there don't appear to be any big announcements happening today -- where...
News Assassin's Creed Origins' First Big In-Game Event Starts Today, Beat a Super Boss and Get Loot
Fight for your life
These days, every game absolutely, unquestionably needs online functionality, and Assassin's Creed Origins is no different. Alongside its microtransactions, revenge missions, and daily quests, Ubisoft is also bringing big events to the release that'll put your skills to the test. To be fair, these so called Trials of the Gods...
News November's PlayStation Plus Games are Out Now
Add to library, baby
November's PlayStation Plus games have hit the PlayStation Store, meaning that subscribers can go ahead and add them to their digital library.

PlayStation Store Sales Charts FIFA 18, Gran Turismo Lead the Way
Front of the pack
There are no upsets in the October 2017 PlayStation Store sales charts, with FIFA 18 pulling away from the pack like Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City [Grumble – Ed] in both Europe and North America. Over in the Old World, the divisive Gran Turismo Sport finished up in second, while it was forced to settle for fifth place in the...
News A NieR: Automata Sequel Is Looking More and More Likely
NieR enough
NieR: Automata has been a surprise hit. Back in September, Square Enix announced that the action role-playing game had shifted over two million copies, so it's clear that the publisher is paying attention. As such, we wouldn't be at all shocked to see a sequel get revealed at some point over the next year or so.
News Assassin's Creed Origins Drops Another Hint that Watch Dogs Is Set in the Same Universe
If you even care
It's no secret that we think Ubisoft should take the modern day portion of Assassin's Creed and launch it into the sun. Once again, the modern day segments in the recently released Assassin's Creed Origins are easily the weakest parts of the entire package, but they do at least hide one semi-interesting detail this time around...
News Media Molecule Will Light Up PSX 2017 with Dreams Re-Reveal
Sleep easy
It’s been a long time since we learned anything about Dreams, the madcap imagination simulation from Media Molecule. But as alluded overnight, the Guildford-based developer will return at PSX 2017 next month to tell us more about the game. While it sounds like Sony will have a very low-key presentation instead of a press conference...
Review Spintires: Mudrunner (PS4)
There will be mud
Games are great because they let you do anything or be anyone. You can be Aloy, an adventurous warrior adept at killing robotic animals in a far-flung future. You can explore entire planets and travel through a vast galaxy in No Man’s Sky. In Everything, you can be, well, anything. In Spintires: Mudrunner, your goal is to move...
News Sengoku Basara Producer Hints at Series' Return in 2018
Hopefully it heads West
Hands up if you know Sengoku Basara. Just a few of you? The people with the anime avatars? Okay, so it's not the most popular action series ever, but the property has pumped out some enjoyable hack and slashers over the years. Sadly, the Japanese series hasn't made it overseas in quite some time. The last instalment we got...
Round Up Need for Speed: Payback PS4 Reviews Are Neither Fast Nor Furious
Car crash
Surprise! Need for Speed: Payback is out this week on the PlayStation 4. You may not have realised because EA has seemingly completely forgotten about the racer as well. And early reviews aren’t looking stellar at the time of typing. In a unique twist that never ever happens during the holiday period, we’re still waiting for our review...
News PSX 2017 May Not Have a Proper Press Conference This Year
Expect updates on Ghost of Tsushima and Dreams, though
PlayStation Experience has become known for its pre-show press conference in the early weeks of December, but it’s starting to sound more and more like this year’s event may not have a media briefing on the scale that many are expecting. We’ll try to clarify with Sony, but there was...
Guide The Best PS4 Open World Games
Out and about
There are a lot of good open world games on PlayStation 4. The genre may not be universally praised these days, but a great open world game can really pull you into an experience like few other genres can. Typically boasting huge sandbox environments for you to explore, open world titles roared onto the mainstream scene during the last...
News Skyrim VR Loots a New PlayStation VR Bundle
Dragonborn again
One of the biggest criticisms pointed at PlayStation VR is that it lacks big games, and while there’s a discussion to be had about whether lengthy releases are the right fit for virtual reality, titles don’t come much bigger than The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim VR. Thus, Sony has announced a new bundle for North America, which comes...
News Microsoft May Bring First-Party Franchises to PlayStation in the Future
Halo, goodbye?
Microsoft already publishes multiformat games with Minecraft, but as the organisation increasingly looks to expand the reach of its services and subscriptions, there could come a time when it releases franchises like Halo and Gears of War on PlayStation platforms. That’s according to boss Phil Spencer, who’s revealed in an...
News It Looks Like God Eater 3 Will Gobble Up PS4
Of course
God Eater 3 is in the works -- we've known that since last month -- but publisher Bandai Namco is yet to announce which platforms it's coming to. In a completely unsurprising twist, it looks like the monster-slaying sequel will be arriving on PlayStation 4. The Korean arm of the company has the game listed for Sony's system, so we reckon...
News Final Fantasy XV: Comrades Fights Back Against the Darkness Next Week
Delayed expansion gets a date
Square Enix has slapped a confirmed release date on Final Fantasy XV: Comrades -- the game's multiplayer co-op expansion. It was originally set to launch at the end of last month, but add-on was delayed so that the developer could apply a little more polish. Fortunately it seems as though everything's now going as...
News UK Sales Charts: Call of Duty's Return to WWII Prompts Resurgence
Back in black
Remember how virtually every retail release has been down this year in the UK due to growing digital sales? It hasn’t affected Call of Duty: WWII, which has absolutely smashed predecessor Infinite Warfare’s launch by a whopping 57 per cent. That should put the historical shooter just short of Black Ops III’s first week figures...
Review Slayaway Camp: Butcher's Cut (PS4)
Slayer
Slayaway Camp: Butcher's Cut is a sliding puzzle game, very similar in style to Hitman Go and Lara Croft Go. A bunch of kids have set up camp upon an old burial ground, making for your typical spooky story setting. Playing as a killer you must rid the camp of all its innocent children in the most brutally murderous way possible. The...
News Sony Reckons Next Year Can Top Its Impressive 2017
High bar
This has been the best year for PlayStation in a long time – arguably over a decade, in fact. Sony came out swinging with Gravity Rush 2 and the PlayStation VR-powered Resident Evil 7: Biohazard in January, and it’s yet to really pump the brakes. Despite all of that, Worldwide Studios president Shuhei Yoshida believes that 2018 could be...
News Party Brawler Gang Beasts May Finally Be Coming to PS4
Double finally
Announcement of an announcement alert! Almost three years after a PlayStation 4 port was announced at PSX 2014, former Internet darling Gang Beasts may finally be coming to the console. The Double Fine published game has had a somewhat troubled development over the years, still stuck in Steam Early Access and yet to have a concrete...
News EA Sports UFC 3 Submits to PS4 on 2nd February
Fight night
EA Sports quietly announced UFC 3 this week, KOing any hopes of a new Fight Night for the time being. The sequel, due out worldwide on 2nd February, will feature Irish gobshite Conor McGregor on the cover – but don’t tell him we said that as he could probably murder us with his little finger. The headline new feature in this latest...
Talking Point What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 193

News Trophies Can Finally Earn You Cold Hard Cash
As long as you live in America
Remember Sony Rewards, the US-only loyalty programme introduced in 2010? Probably not, but a new update now adds Trophy functionaility, allowing members of the service to earn PSN credits by earning Trophies. The bad news? Rewards aren't retroactive, so no matter how many games you've tirelessly Platinumed, you'll only...
News You May Be Interested in These New Overwatch Announcements
Meet Moira
Overwatch, in case you hadn’t noticed, has become one of the biggest games in the world. It’s always big news, then, when new announcements are made – particularly when they include new heroes and maps. And that’s exactly what’s powered its way out of BlizzCon 2017 like a Simon Fitzgerald summoned Hanzo ultimate. Firstly, the...
Poll What Are Your Thoughts on Call of Duty as a Whole?
War never changes?
With Call of Duty: WWII out today on PlayStation 4, we were wondering: what are your thoughts on Call of Duty as a whole? Activision's franchise is still a commercial juggernaut, doing numbers that most games can only dream of, but we remember a time when the series was so big and so impactful that every annual release sent...
Review Bubsy: The Woolies Strike Back (PS4)
What could possibly go wrong?
Oh, Bubsy. Where to even start? The first couple of 16-bit titles were actually fairly enjoyable, but everything unravelled for the maligned mascot with the arrival of Bubsy 3D, certainly one of the worst games to grace a PlayStation console. To answer his catchphrase, everything did go wrong, and with his name in...
Review Assassin's Creed Origins (PS4)
Welcome Bayek
Assassin's Creed Origins has exceeded our expectations by some distance. After the disaster that was Assassin's Creed Unity and the solid but unremarkable Assassin's Creed Syndicate, it was clear that Ubisoft needed to take a step back and reassess its sandbox property. Fortunately, the company made the right call when it decided to...

In the meantime, here are some early impressions from gaming media’s biggest guns – and a...
News Gran Turismo Sport Grabs a PlayStation VR Bundle for the Holidays
Speed freak
Gran Turismo Sport is one of the biggest PlayStation VR compatible brands available right now, so it makes sense for Sony to bundle the simulation racer with the hardware. Unfortunately, the functionality is so disappointingly limited that this kinda feels like a bad pack-in – hopefully Polyphony Digital has been paying attention to...
News Maybe Don't Buy Star Wars Battlefront 2 at Launch
EA planning big discounts
EA’s said that it will “most likely” discount Star Wars Battlefront 2 around the release of The Last Jedi, which is due out on 15th December.

Ace of bass
What in the name of Nemo is this? Nussoft has announced open world, aquatic action game Ace of Seafood for the PlayStation 4, which... Well, we don’t even know where to start with this one.

"We want people to have the experience"
It doesn't really come as a surprise, but Monster Hunter: World won't have loot boxes or microtransactions. Yay!

Feature Assassin's Creed Origins' Open World Is One of the Best We've Ever Seen
The magic of Egypt

News PS4 Exclusive Ghost of Tsushima's Trailer Is Way Better in Japanese
はい
Y’know, it’s been such a busy week that we haven’t really had time to process Ghost of Tsushima yet. Like, we all expected Sucker Punch to announce something soon-ish, but how many of you anticipated a bloody samurai-based feudal ninja thing? You would have gotten pretty crazy odds on that a week ago, we suspect. Anyway, the game...
