The Easter sale has now ended, which means that it's time for another PlayStation Store sale in Europe. Sony's knocking up to 60 per cent off some of the PlayStation 4's biggest games, like Destiny: The Collection, Rocket League, Titanfall 2, and Star Wars Battlefront. There are a bunch of LEGO games up for grabs at low...
News Everyone Is Talking About Alien Isolation 2
And how it does or doesn't exist
There's a column in Official PlayStation Magazine called Rumour Machine, and we always thought it was common knowledge that its contents were either completely fabricated or based upon Internet speculation. But in the latest issue it hinted that Creative Assembly is working on Alien Isolation 2, which resulted in a...
News Middle-earth: Shadow of War Is Really Upping Its Loot Game
Precious gear
IGN is back with another trailer - we mean, er, Gameplay Reveal for Middle-earth: Shadow of War. This time we're getting a look at the game's expanded loot system, which sees protagonist Talion stumble across an entirely new range of equipment as he slaughters orcs of all shapes and sizes. In addition to new swords and daggers, you'll...
News Good Lord, We Can't Wait to Play Final Fantasy XII Again on PS4
Remaster gets a new story trailer
Final Fantasy XII: The Zodiac Age has a brand new story trailer, and upon giving it a watch, we've realised just how much we'd like to play the sprawling role-playing release all over again. In other words, the hype train has well and truly left the station. Fortunately we don't have to wait that long to get our...
Video What Remains of Edith Finch Makes a Strong First Impression
Watch the first 15 minutes
Ah, this is awesome. Being a so-called walking simulator, What Remains of Edith Finch is sure to split opinion, but first impressions don't get much better than this. You play as the titular teenager who's returned to her family home for reasons not entirely known. The twist is that the house is a do-it-yourself castle...
News SEGA CD Classic Night Trap Is Partying to PS4
And there'll be a retail release
Jiminy cricket, this came out of nowhere, didn't it? Cult SEGA CD (or Mega CD to us Europeans) classic Night Trap is making a return on the PlayStation 4 – and it's getting a retail run courtesy of Limited Run Games. The frankly ludicrous full-motion video title coveted controversy upon its original release in...
Subscribe to Push Square on YouTube148k Watch on YouTube Review The Walking Dead: A New Frontier - Episode 4: Thicker Than Water (PS4)
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...
Guide Dragon Quest Heroes II Tips and Tricks For Rookie Knights
Listen up, cadet
Dragon Quest Heroes II may be full of cute and colourful monsters, but you should never take them lightly. Indeed, the hack and slash sequel can be pretty darn tough at times, offering up some really tricky boss fights and foes that just don't know when to quit. As such, we've put together seven tips and tricks for rookie knights to...
News Street Fighter V Scores Capcom Cup 2017 Content As Single Player Wilts
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? Probably, because the game continues to bloat in content, but virtually all of it seems aimed at the more competitive players enjoying it online...
News Sniper: Ghost Warrior 3's Bad Press Continues as Multiplayer Is Nowhere to Be Seen at Launch
Missing the mark
It's not going well for Sniper: Ghost Warrior 3, is it? The open world shooter launched today in North America in Europe, but it already seems unable to catch a break. Following the news that its loading times can creep above the five minute mark on PlayStation 4, the title was met with mostly middling reviews. Indeed, we gave it a...
News Sonic Forces' Classic Gameplay Doesn't Exactly Inspire Confidence
And the Sonic Cycle starts anew
The problem with Sonic Mania looking and playing so good is that this Classic Sonic gameplay – one of the three gameplay pillars in the upcoming Sonic Forces – seems redundant in comparison. Not only does it look like a fan project built with Unity assets, but the physics appear to follow in the footsteps of the...
News Marvel vs Capcom: Infinite Adds Hulk, Rocket Raccoon, Chris Redfield, More
Mash-up due out 19th September
The ultimate battle between comic books and Capcom will reignite once more from 19th September, as Marvel vs Capcom: Infinite has been dated.

News Call of Duty: WWII Will Fight on the Beaches from 3rd November
Release date outed by London art
Call of Duty: WWII will make a beach landing on your PlayStation 4 this coming 3rd November, if a massive promotional poster in London is to be believed. The image shows key art from the forthcoming World War II first-person shooter, but crucially includes the aforementioned date. It was then tweeted by Sledgehammer...
News Resident Evil 7's Free DLC Goes into Hiding Until Later Date
Go tell Aunt Rhody
Resident Evil 7's free DLC pack has been pushed back until an undisclosed later date. Not a Hero – which is set to feature series veteran Chris Redfield – had been set to release this Spring, but in an overly apologetic video, the expansion's producers have admitted that they need more time to hit the standards expected of the...
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. Obviously this property has no relation to the sniper games created by Rebellion (Sniper Elite and Nazi Zombie Army), and after just a few minutes anyone can realise it definitely doesn't deserve to be riding the coattails...
Interview Samuel Laflamme on Scoring Outlast II's Scares
Sounding off
Outlast II from Red Barrels is one of the most anticipated titles of the year. A follow-up to one of the best horror games we've had the chance to play, we got the chance to ask composer, Samuel Laflamme – who also scored Outlast, as well as the expansion, Whistleblower – a few questions about his process, how the soundscape for the...
Review Dragon Quest Heroes II (PS4)
Royal rumble
It's time to dust off those slime-smacking weapons, because Dynasty Warriors developer Omega Force is back for another stab at Square Enix's beloved Dragon Quest franchise. Once again, the Japanese studio offers up a colourful action role-playing game stuffed with charm and content. And as is usually the case with an Omega Force sequel,...
News Square Enix Running Life Is Strange Focus Groups in London and New York
We're totally cereal
It looks like the sun hasn't set on Life Is Strange, as Square Enix has invited fans to focus groups in London and New York next month. Scheduled to take place on 3rd May and 5th May respectively, the sessions will presumably be used to pitch fans on potential sequel ideas – or at least get some feedback on where followers see...

The game's being billed as a successor to PlayStation...
News Nope, Final Fantasy VII Remake and Kingdom Hearts III Aren't Releasing This Year
Yet more evidence
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...
News Cities: Skylines Will Build Foundations on PS4 Soon It Seems
Game already rated for Sony's system in Brazil
Much to this author's chagrin, Cities: Skylines launched as an Xbox One console exclusive this week – at least, that's what we assumed. However, it seems that's only temporary, as the title's already been rated for release on the PlayStation 4 in Brazil. If this deal turns out to be anything like...
Round Up What Remains of Edith Finch PS4 Reviews Prolong Year of Dreams
Letters to you
The Unfinished Swan is the rare recipient of a 10/10 score here at Push Square, so we've been eyeballing the imaginative What Remains of Edith Finch with intrigue ever since.

A quick update on NieR: Automata's first piece of DLC: it'll deploy on 2nd May in North America and Europe, the same day as the content – named 3C3C1D119440927 – is set to release in Japan. The add-on pack includes new colloseums, quests, and costumes – including 2B's rather lovely looking backless dress...
Deer God
A 2.5D platformer set in a mysterious forest, The Deer God sees you playing as the titular majestic mammal - among other animals - which you have been reincarnated as after getting mauled by wolves on a hunting trip. Despite the interesting setting and background, however, developer Cinopt Games' first foray onto console is an...
News Final Fantasy XV Is Getting a Sword that Looks Like a DJ Deck
What even is this game?
You know, it's really easy to make fun of Final Fantasy XV these days, but we're going to do it anyway. Square Enix has revealed that the game's next update will add in a special sword that looks like a disc jockey deck. It's being implemented in honour of Dutch DJ Afrojack, who already has a track featured in the title's...
News Days Gone Dev Sony Bend Moving to New Digs After Rapid Expansion
Studio has more than doubled in size
As work on Days Gone continues, Sony Bend is growing at a rapid pace. A report published by Oregon newspaper The Bulletin notes that the infamously low-profile firm is to occupy a new office this fall, as it begins to outgrow its current digs. Apparently, the studio has expanded from 45 to 103 employees recently,...
News UK Sales Charts: There's No Taming Ghost Recon: Wildlands
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 Free May 2017 PlayStation Plus Games Are You After?
Gimme the goods
T'is that time of the month yet again where we ask you to ponder which PlayStation Plus freebies you want in May 2017. We're expecting the lineup to be revealed this coming Wednesday (26th April) ahead of a 2nd May roll out. Unfortunately the release schedule's currently looking quite barren on that day, so your guess is as good as...
News New Middle-earth: Shadow of War Gameplay Is All About the Kill
Let's get stabby
Middle-earth: Shadow of War is only a few months away from release, which means that we're starting to see gameplay footage drop on a regular basis. This latest video from IGN puts a load of different kills on display, with combat looking just as brutal as it did in Shadow of Mordor. We're looking forward to seeing how this sequel...
News A New Yakuza Game Is In Development, May Not Star Kazuma Kiryu
Sleeping dragon
The Yakuza series isn't one to take a break, and although protagonist Kazuma Kiryu's story comes to an end in Yakuza 6 - due out over here in 2018 - series general director Toshihiro Nagoshi has confirmed that another game is currently in the works. According to a translation of Nagoshi's comments by Gematsu, the eccentric developer...
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...
Hands On It's All About That Bass in Euro Fishing on PS4
Hook, line, and stinker?
Y'know we're all about that bass, 'bout that bass, no tetra. Euro Fishing launched recently on the PlayStation 4, and we've been reel-y excited to talk about its angling action. This is a simulation akin to your Farming Simulators, so it means that all of the intricacies of lake lovin' are represented here; don't expect a...

Voorhees a jolly good fellow

News Call of Duty: WWII's Map Packs Will Deploy 30 Days Early on PS4
Guns and glory
It shouldn't come as a massive surprise, but Call of Duty: WWII's map packs will launch 30 days early on the PlayStation 4, as has been the case for a couple of entries already. Sony is the primary marketing partner for Activision's first-person franchise, and it doesn't look like that relationship will be ending anytime soon, so look...
News Call of Duty: WWII Confirmed with Countdown Clock
Announcement of announcement
Call of Duty: WWII has been announced by Activision, which would be a surprise if it hadn't already leaked months ago. Rather than actually showcase the title, the publisher has instead plumped up for a countdown clock on the franchise's official website. All will be revealed proper at 18:00 BST on 26th April. The...
Round Up Little Nightmares PS4 Reviews Are a Dream Come True
Wake me up inside
Little Nightmares, the gritty puzzle platformer from LittleBigPlanet Vita developer Tarsier Studios, has turned in a dream performance, with reviews universally recommending the harrowing release.

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. It's safe to say that the vast majority of players will have bought the game on Sony's latest home console, but it's still interesting to see how the last-gen version shapes up - especially...
News Portal Knights Is Minecraft with More RPG, and You Can Try It For Free Right Now on PS4
Step right in
A colourful action role-playing game with crafting elements, Portal Knights promises to be a fun alternative to the likes of Minecraft on PlayStation 4. It's got all of the usual bells and whistles: co-op for up to four players, randomised worlds to explore, and dungeons full of loot, but it's the RPG side of things that interests us...

Everything you need to know
Narrative-driven spin-off Samurai Warriors: Spirit of Sanada has a new trailer which briefly goes over just about everything that you can expect from the game.

Features a new PS4 Pro mode
Final Fantasy XV will be getting another hefty update later this month, Square Enix has revealed.

'Stable Mode' will allow Pro users to prioritise a stable frame rate, essentially making up for the...
Review Full Throttle Remastered (PS4)
Asphalt and trouble
Never has the fallibility of memory been clearer than when revisiting video games from the past. It can be surprising just how big the gulf between recollection and reality can be, leaving you to wonder if your brain just might be responsible for some of the greatest video game remasters of all time. As with last year's...
News March 2017 NPD: Two PS4 Exclusives in Top Five Spots
Horizon: Zero Dawn and MLB The Show 17 start strong

News Everybody's Golf Ditches Hot Shots Moniker for Western Release
Clap your hands
Thank heavens for that! The Hot Shots series has always been a nightmare from a database perspective because rarely do its games ever have the same name across regions. It would appear that Sony's realised that's not the best approach for search engine optimisation, though, as it's decided to name the new PlayStation 4 entry...
News The Walking Dead: Season Three Proves That Blood Is Thicker Than Water
New episode out 25th April
The fourth episode of The Walking Dead: A New Frontier will prove that blood is thicker than water from 25th April on the PlayStation 4. Considering the previous episode dropped a matter of weeks ago, this is a much quicker turnaround, which is welcome given that Above the Law felt like it stopped halfway through. There's...
News AereA Is Diablo with Instruments on PS4
Sound idea
We had a different kind of game in mind when we heard the elevator pitch "music-themed action role-playing game", anticipating some kind of rhythm-based release. Instead, the upcoming AereA is quite literally Diablo with instruments. You'll be able to pick from a variety of composers, each of which use their chosen musical apparatus to...
News New Hot Shots Golf Putts Out Closed Beta on 26th May
A links in time
New Hot Shots Golf's online game world seems like the sort of thing that could collapse on launch day, so it's a good thing that developer Clap Hanz is planning a closed beta for the arcade golfing release. Set to run between 26th May and 28th May in Japan only, you'll need to download a "ticket" from the PlayStation Store in order...
News Bandai Namco's Gruelling Action RPG Code Vein Scores Screens
Blood lust
Sadly it's not leveraging the same art style as its teaser trailer, but the new action role-playing game from Bandai Namco named Code Vein is still looking pretty cool. We described it as Anime Souls in our previous article, and that's honestly shaping up to be the case. You play as a vampirical Revenant who must feast on the blood of...
Video VR Invaders Arms You with a Shooter and a Shield
Offence to defence
PlayStation VR developers seem to be going in one of two directions right now: cockpit shooters or stationary arcade shooters. VR Invaders: Complete Edition falls into the latter camp, seeing you dive into the shoes of a dude who has to destroy rogue viruses in a virtual reality computer or something. It's proper meta. There is a...
News Fancy a Better Look at 2B's Backless Costume in NieR: Automata?
Oh, you're actually here for the new gameplay?
NieR: Automata's getting new DLC which will add additional Colosseum battles to the game, alongside a fresh batch of threads for each of the title's primary protagonists. These outfits are based upon the origina—oh what the heck, here's 2B's backless dress in all of its glory: The add-on pack –...
News Ex-Quantic Dream Employees Reference Unannounced PS4 Project
Prior to Detroit's announcement
Oh FFS! There's a strong rumour doing the rounds that Quantic Dream is busy beavering away on a second PlayStation 4 project in addition to Detroit: Become Human – except it's the flakiest piece of reporting we've seen in some time. While it wouldn't exactly be shocking to learn that the French outfit is prototyping...
News This Crash Bandicoot PS4 Special Edition Isn't Official, But It's Cool
Retailer commissions exclusive Aku-Aku case
Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy's special edition has leaked – except it hasn't. Once again the games media finds itself unable to perform even the slightest atom of research, as the pictured Aku-Aku case spotted at Italian retailer Show Game is something that the store has commissioned itself...

Spin to win
Sony has revealed that if you pre-order Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy on the PlayStation Store, you'll nab yourself the 'Sunset Vista Pack', which features a bonus dynamic theme and avatar set.

News Watch Dogs 2's Biggest Ever Update Drops This Month
Adds PvP, online races, more
Watch Dogs 2 garnered a decent amount of praise when it launched late last year, but its arrival didn't really set the world alight. Although it's commonly considered to be a sequel that improves upon just about everything that its predecessor got right, it released in a crowded period and was unfortunately overlooked by...
News Marvel Heroes Omega Enters Closed Beta on PS4 This Week
Here's how you can get in
Marvel Heroes Omega, the free-to-play PlayStation 4 action role-playing game, is entering closed beta from Friday, 21st April – and you'll be able to pay for access.

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...
News So, You Can Become a Character in Drawn to Death
Sony launches new competition
It seems a lot of people loathe Drawn to Death, but we really like it – or at least, this author did anyway. If you're one of those that doesn't enjoy the hand-sketched third-person shooter, then you may want to quietly toodle out of this thread before tediously reminding us how "terrible" it is in the comments...
News Ghost Recon: Wildlands' Expansion Trailer Hits the Road
Ghost busters
Ghost Recon: Wildlands' first expansion, Narco Road, sees the rough and ready agents infiltrate a fresh part of the Santa Blanca cartel as they attempt to put a stop to an infamous drug smuggler. Pretty standard stuff for America's best, then. The downloadable content promises a suite of new missions, vehicles, and weaponry. The core...
News PlayStation VR Exclusive Farpoint Travels to a Mad, Mad World
Sony's sci-fi shooter seems much deeper than expected
We've played Farpoint a fair few times now and really enjoyed the PlayStation VR exclusive shooter, but we never really expected it to have much in the way of story. This new trailer has exceeded our expectations, then, as it sets the scene on a dangerous journey to a different planet. It's…...
News UK Sales Charts: Ghost Recon Returns As Persona 5 Disappears
Atlus JRPG drops out of the Top 40 entirely
Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon: Wildlands reclaimed its place at the top of the UK sales charts this week, as stock issues caused Persona 5 to fall from the summit to outside the Top 40 entirely, which is the first time we've ever seen that happen. Talk about front-loaded! The top five was dominated by some...
News The Warden Brings a Bloody Big Bear to Battle in The Elder Scrolls Online's New Trailer
That's roar like it
The Warden is The Elder Scrolls Online's first additional player class, and the range of abilities that they offer should make them an interesting choice in terms of gameplay. Of course, the headline act here is that they're able to summon a bunch of different beasts to aid them in combat, so expect to see Morrowind flooded with...
Outside help
The Inner World is a fun and charming experience set in an imaginative world, but it's held back by a number of all too common flaws of the adventure game genre. You play as the naive Robert, an apprentice who has spent his whole life living in a castle under the watchful eye of Conroy, a wind monk in charge of ensuring wind continues...
News Sony XDev Europe's Been Showing Shuhei Yoshida Secret Stuff
And some things we know about
It's around this time of the year that work likely starts in earnest for the impending E3 2017, and Worldwide Studios president Shuhei Yoshida is currently in the UK visiting some of the European studios. And according to Twitter scuttlebutt, he's spent the day at Sony XDev Europe, checking out some of the conduit...
News Horizon: Zero Dawn Patch 1.13 Cleans Up Remaining Complaints
Background music support incorporated
One thing that's perhaps gone unmentioned with regards to Horizon: Zero Dawn is just how polished the experience was at launch. We reviewed the game using unpatched pre-release code – a rarity these days – and we didn't encounter any bugs, glitches, or meaningful gripes. When you consider that the open world...
News Bandai Namco Reveals New Action RPG from God Eater Team
Prepare to dine
You may have seen Bandai Namco released a teaser trailer for a new title last week, and now it's been officially announced as an action role-playing game named Code Vein, which is set to release on as of yet unspecified platforms. It's probably safe to assume that the PlayStation 4 will be one of the consoles that the title comes to...
News Sony's Bringing the 1TB PS4 Slim to the United States
Small chassis, huge HDD
It's been available in Europe for quite some time now, but Sony's announced that the 1TB PlayStation 4 Slim is launching in the United States this month. Obviously this is identical to the system already available in the US, it just comes with a bigger internal HDD and carries an MSRP of $299.99. There's more information on...
Review Guardians of the Galaxy: Episode One - Tangled Up in Blue (PS4)
Marvel?
Telltale's Guardians of the Galaxy seems to assume that you're already familiar with the titular team of loveable rogues after the success of the 2014 smash-hit movie of the same name, as there is very little in the way of introduction for any of the characters involved. This is simultaneously Episode One's greatest strength and greatness...
Minimum wage
Towards the back end of last year, we were pleasantly surprised by a full-motion video game named The Bunker. The first of its kind on PlayStation 4, its story, characters, and acting performances were the driving factors in what was a short but sweet experience. Publisher Wales Interactive is now back with a second foray into the FMV...
Review Shiness: The Lightning Kingdom (PS4)
Shiny happy people
Life can sometimes feel like waiting for the proverbial bus. While everyone has been patiently anticipating Yooka-Laylee, it actually isn't the only colourful Kickstarter game to make its way to the PlayStation 4 this month: somewhat lesser known is Shiness: The Lightning Kingdom. This is an action role-playing game, but it's not...
Review The Disney Afternoon Collection (PS4)
The collection that flaps in the night
The early-to-late nineties were a renaissance for Disney: the company was not only producing some of the most memorable and innovative films it would ever produce but also releasing spectacular original animated television series. Ducktales, Goof Troop, TaleSpin, Gargoyles, and Darkwing Duck were just some of...
News Travel Upstream with Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy PS4 Gameplay
Crash bash
Activision's slowly pumping out plenty of Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy gameplay footage, and it tends to look better with each new clip. This video focuses on the original's fifth level Upstream, and delves into some of the visual tells Vicarious Visions has implemented to help make the stage's platforming that bit more intuitive...
Review Wonder Boy: The Dragon's Trap (PS4)
High above the mucky muck
The Wonder Boy series was one of the Master System's most beloved franchises, though its cult-classic status hasn't prevented it from falling by the wayside. A convoluted history, including a tangle of complications regarding the rights to the series, meant a comeback would be virtually impossible. In spite of this, a tiny...
Hands On Behind the Wheel of Gran Turismo Sport
On track?
Are we allowed to write about this? Gran Turismo Sport's closed beta agreement terms specifically stipulate that the server stress test can't be talked about, but video platforms are filled with footage and public forums are chatting pretty openly about the racer. Hmm, for the purposes of this hands on preview, let's just pretend that...

News Sony to Shut Kill Strain Servers Less Than a Year After Launch
Sports Champions, ModNation Racers, and more to also get the chop
Call it a hunch, but we don't think Sony San Diego's asymmetric MOBA Kill Strain quite worked out as intended. You may recall the platform holder laying off the portion of the team that worked on the free-to-play foray last September, and now it's announced its intention to close the...
