Fore the players
Clap Hanz's long overdue persistent online arcade golf title New Hot Shots Golf will finally tee off on 31st August in Japan, publisher Sony has announced.

News It's Hard to Believe Final Fantasy XII Is a PS2 Remaster
Not Basch
We recently put together a list of 41 PlayStation 2 Classics that must come to the PlayStation 4, but we excluded a handful of titles on the basis that they're already getting the remaster treatment. One such title is Final Fantasy XII: The Zodiac Age, which originally released in 2006 – not that these screenshots suggest as much. To...
News Job Simulator Creates Work for Store Clerks with Retail Release
Stack those shelves
Shortlived it may be, but Job Simulator's still one of the best virtual reality experiences you can buy on PlayStation VR. Not only does the title take full advantage of the medium, but its tongue-in-cheek humour is on-point from start-to-finish, and it's a must-own if you happen to pick up Sony's futuristic facemask. And...
News Hour-Long Dutch Documentary Explores the Making of Horizon: Zero Dawn
Watch it now
Horizon: Zero Dawn has obviously been a big deal for PlayStation, but it's perhaps easy to overlook just how important the release is for Holland as well. Guerrilla Games is far and away the largest studio in the Netherlands, and not only does the PlayStation 4 exclusive's critical and commercial success reflect well on the company, but...
News Star Wars Battlefront 2 Leaves Season Pass in a Galaxy Far, Far Away
DICE doesn't want to fragment community
With games like Overwatch keeping their communities engaged through free content updates and paid cosmetics, the Season Pass is starting to sound old hat these days. And another big budget blockbuster has ditched the divisive DLC model, with Star Wars Battlefront 2 deciding to do away with the paid content...

Spans three eras of lore starting 17th November

Kill 'em all
It's the long Easter weekend for many of you, but work continues on The Last of Us: Part II in Los Angeles.

News PS4's Run Halted by Nintendo Switch Launch in March NPD
But Sony's system stays strong
As expected, the launch of the Nintendo Switch has (temporarily?) dethroned the PlayStation 4 from the top of the United States hardware charts. Sony's system had been sitting pretty for several months in a row, but it was never going to overcome the release of its rival's new handheld-cum-console, which performed...
News Horizon: Zero Dawn Is Free with the PS4 Pro This Easter
In the UK at least
Sony's looking to shift some hardware this Easter weekend, as it's announced that at select retailers in the UK you'll be able to get a free copy of Horizon: Zero Dawn with the PlayStation 4 Pro. This is a time limited deal – with the offer set to expire on 23rd April stock withstanding – so you may want to get a move on if...
Soapbox Sony Should Pinch the Nintendo Direct Format
Sammy reckons there's mileage in Nintendo's marketing
I did something I rarely do this week: I watched a Nintendo Direct. To be honest, I have a weird relationship with the Big N's pre-recorded events: I've watched the E3 ones before and I've always felt that, for everything they gain in pacing and structure, they lack the kind of energy that you...
Video Snow Moto Racing Freedom Is Snow Joke
The big freeze
Racing games – particularly those of the arcade variety – are on a real decline, so it's refreshing to see something like Snow Moto Racing Freedom arrive on the PlayStation 4. The title may be low-budget, but it's got a nice hook to it: snowmobiles as opposed to automobiles. And the game modes reflect this, one focusing on...
News Horizon: Zero Dawn Battles to Top of PlayStation Store Charts
But only in Europe
You can be sure it's a slow news day when we report on the PlayStation Store charts, but maybe this is something you'd like to see us cover more regularly? After all, we're pretty thorough when it comes to the UK, Japan, and USA sales charts, and the PlayStation Store is becoming an increasingly important part of the game...
Weirdness Finally You Can 3D Print Your Own PlayStation Trophies
Trophy unlocked
What's this nonsense about Trophies being meaningless, virtual awards?

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. One of the big features on Steam for quite a while has been its ability to allow you to get a refund on digital purchases. The terms of service state that, as long as you don't abuse the system, you're eligible to request a...
News Watch As Two of PlayStation's Most Prominent Names Chat Candidly
Neil Druckmann and Hermen Hulst get together
This is actually a brilliant little video: Sony put Guerrilla Games' managing director Hermen Hulst and Naughty Dog's creative director Neil Druckmann in an up-market coffee shop and filmed them chatting for 25 minutes. The conversation mostly centres around Horizon: Zero Dawn, but it does deviate to...
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. A steady supply of Switch stock has helped Nintendo's new hardware to hold strong, but all other systems – the PlayStation 4 Pro excluded – saw their sales numbers decline this week. LEGO Worlds...
News Star Wars Battlefront 2 Leak Leads to EA Clamp Down
Will span all Star Wars eras
Update (17:15 BST): EA is pulling the trailer from every channel it possibly can, so honestly your best bet right now is to just wait until Saturday to watch the official thing. We'll obviously post it here as soon as we have it. Original Article: Star Wars Battlefront 2's debut trailer has leaked ahead of this...
News Play the Opening Hour of PREY Free Before It Launches on PS4
No strings
There's an argument that PREY is flying a little too fancifully under-the-radar – especially seeing as it looks like the new-gen BioShock we've all been twiddling our thumbs waiting for. The best way to rectify that problem is by letting people play the game, however, and thus you can look forward to testing out the opening hour for...
News Yakuza Kiwami Goes Back to the Beginning on 29th August
Pre-order for a steelbook case
We're all massive Yakuza fanboys here at Push Square Towers, and we're not ashamed to admit it. The good news is that, with the release of Yakuza 0, there are now a lot more followers of Kazuma Kiryu and crew than there used to be, which means you may be excited to learn that Yakuza Kiwami is launching on 29th August...
News The Order: 1886 Dev's Deformers Rolls Out 21st April
It's got balls
Deformers is the next game from The Order: 1886 developer Ready at Dawn. No, really – it actually is. Look, sometimes you need a change of scenery, and after investing years into the whole cinematic shooter thing, we're not surprised that the studio has turned its attention to rolling ball… Things. And if that sounds like it's up...
Video Unmask An Hour of The Sexy Brutale Gameplay
Groundhog day
We slapped a humongous score on The Sexy Brutale this week, but we have a confession to make: several of us at Push Square Towers had never even heard of the title prior to reviewer Simon Fitzgerald's ravings. We're sure that secretly applies to many of you, too, so we recorded a live stream which should help you to learn what the...
News Warriors All-Stars Is a Musou Mash-Up for PS4
And it's coming to the West
Better known as Robert Ramsey: The Video Game, oft-niche publisher Koei Tecmo has announced Warriors All-Stars for the West, which is essentially Japanese entry Musou Stars with a new name slapped on it. The mash-up sees "famous" faces like… Sophie Neuenmuller and Zhao Yun mowing down millions of minions all at once...
News Mince Through Minas Ithil in Middle-earth: Shadow of War Gameplay
Monolith's sequel doesn't make a great first impression
Warner Bros has released four minutes of gameplay footage from the fast-approaching Middle-earth: Shadow of War in 4K resolution – but it looks kinda rough from where we're sitting. The game – which is due out in August – introduces a scenario in Minas Ithil in this video, and while it...

News Gran Turismo Sport Adds Porsches As EA License Expires
And the beta comes to Europe this weekend

News JRPG Classics Come Together for Cosmic Star Heroine
Final Phantasy
It may have been delayed a week in Europe, but that's not stopping Cosmic Star Heroine from looking super interesting. The upcoming PlayStation 4 indie – inspired by the JRPG classics of old – appears pretty faithful to its inspirations in this PlayStation Underground video, which includes a good 10 minutes plus of gameplay from...
Weirdness Dragon Quest XI's Slime DualShock 4 Is PS4's Craziest Controller Yet
He slimed me
Much like with the PlayStation 2 back in the day, Hori has announced a Slime DualShock 4 for a new generation. The rotund peripheral – designed to tie-in to the release of Dragon Quest XI on the PlayStation 4 – includes all of the features that you'd expect, including (incredibly) a touchpad, mono speaker, gyroscope, and headphone...

Will release next game on Sony's system

Store Update 11th April 2017 (Europe)
Karma chameleon
It's a much quieter week on the European PlayStation Store this time, though there are still the likes of Yooka-Laylee and The Sexy Brutale to look forward to, proving yet again that the PlayStation Store rarely ever sleeps. PlayStation VR fans can also pick up StarBlood Arena, though we're yet to be convinced by the cockpit affair...

News PS4 Firmware Update 4.55 Puts in Shock Appearance
But what does it do?
It's a PlayStation 4 firmware update day – but not one of the good ones. Sony's sneakily launched system software v4.55 today, which improves the stability of your console. In other words, it's bringing some behind-the-scenes bug fixes and not a lot else. The patch weighs in at just 339.9MB so shouldn't take long to...
Deals The Best External Hard Drives for PS4
Increase your console's capacity with a USB HDD
Sony added external hard drive (HDD) support to the PlayStation 4 recently, meaning that you can now easily increase the capacity of your console without needing to open it and replace its internal hard drive. The system supports drives of up to 8TB, but you do need to ensure that you plump up for a...
Hands On StarBlood Arena Brings Loot Boxes to PlayStation VR
Overwatch in virtual reality?
There's nothing really wrong with StarBlood Arena, but ever since its announcement at PSX 2016, we haven't been able to resist the urge to roll our eyes. It's just one of those games that doesn't appear to have any identity of its own – and that's despite its likeable space cowboy façade. Cockpit shooters are dime a...
News Unlike Atlus, Square Enix Sees the Value in Streams
Imagine being outsmarted by Square Enix
Square Enix may act like the stupidest organisation on Earth sometimes, but it's not quite as dumb as Atlus when it comes to gameplay videos and streams. You may remember the latter causing something of a stir recently when it decided to block the share button in Persona 5 on the premise of spoilers. It then...
News Good God, WipEout Omega Collection Is Looking Glorious on PS4 Pro
Gotta go fast
German channel Inside PlayStation's got a little more pre-release footage for you to feast your eyes on, this time from WipEout Omega Collection. This was playable at a recent convention so it does appear that Sony's plumped up for one of the title's slower speeds to make the experience more comfortable for attendees – but that...
News Horizon: Zero Dawn 2 Will Likely Have Way, Way More Machines
And will enhance your bond with Aloy
Guerrilla Games seems pretty open that more Horizon: Zero Dawn is on the way, and while it sounds like an expansion pack is in the works, it's also been chatting with Game Informer about a full-blown sequel. Firstly, narrative director John Gonzalez hinted that we can expect the bond between players and...
News Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy Looks Ace in 4K on PS4 Pro
Oodibigah
There were some complaints when the gameplay was first revealed at PSX 2016 last year that Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy looked a little flat and washed out, but the presentation has come a long way since then. It looks like Vicarious Visions has been busy tweaking the title's lighting, colouring, and even textures as the 32-bit love-in...
News Everyone's Saying Uncharted: The Lost Legacy Is 10 Hours Long
But it's a bit misleading
Bloody hell, the standard of games websites gets worse, doesn't it? Over the weekend, an interview with Naughty Dog's Arne Meyer got picked up by dozens of bigger sites, all because reporters without reading comprehension assumed spin-off Uncharted: The Lost Legacy will be 10 hours or longer. Ironically, the director of...
Welcome to the house of fun

Talking Point Is It Time for Sony to Take PS4 Pro Seriously?
Mid-gen battlegrounds
Sony released the PlayStation 4 Pro last year, and it's a good iterative console. Designed to take existing PS4 games and push them to the next level, the system has generally achieved its aims by bumping resolutions, effects, and other features depending on the developer's decision. The manufacturer's goal was never to change...
News The Last of Us Dev Naughty Dog's on a Real Hiring Spree
Fresh blood
We assume Naughty Dog's really starting to ramp up production on The Last of Us: Part II right now, as it's on a huge hiring spree. The Californian developer is trying to fill a wide gamut of positions, including everything from gameplay animators right the way through to visual effects artists. The studio's got a lot on its plate right...

First up there's Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm Legacy, a beefy set...
News UK Sales Charts: Persona 5 Smashes Series Records to Top
Well deserved, too
What the heck is this? A Japanese role-playing game not named 'Final Fantasy' at number one? Surely not? It's true: Persona 5 has robbed the rest of the UK sales charts blind this week, climbing to the summit and securing Atlus' best ever launch in Britain by some margin. Not bad at all, eh? The title sold 97 per cent of its...
News Swing Your Sword at NieR: Automata's MoCap Artist
Not like that
NieR: Automata isn't exactly an oil painting, but one of its best assets is its animation. And as has been going nuclear on Reddit over the weekend, here's star Kaori Kawabuchi doing her 2B thang: Hypnotising, right?
Hands On 10 of Our Indie Favourites from EGX Rezzed 2017
From rhythmic blasting to cartoon giraffes
The breadth of experiences available to play at this year's EGX Rezzed was frankly staggering. We couldn't move for the number of games on display, and we often found ourselves unsure where to turn next. We managed to play dozens of titles of all shapes and sizes nonetheless, and there were countless fresh...

Here's what it looks like in all of its retweet baiting glory: The coolest thing about the steelbook box art is...
Hands On Battalion 1944 Turns Back the Clock on Multiplayer Shooters
This means war
EGX Rezzed, as a general rule, is far less busy than its Birmingham-based big brother. Lines are significantly smaller if they exist at all, and people seem to be more willing to try out a wider variety of games, rather than crowding around the bigger titles. However, Battalion 1944 was one game that enjoyed a consistently busy queue,...
Hands On The Occupation Offers an Intriguing Political Playground
The show must go on
The Occupation is the new project from White Paper Games, creators of Ether One. It's another first-person, narrative-driven game, this time with a politically tinged story about the oppressive Union Act. It was formed in response to a terrorist attack in the 1980s England setting, and threatens to rob the British public of their...
Review Vikings - Wolves of Midgard (PS4)
Howling for you
Vikings - Wolves of Midgard is an action role-playing game stuffed with blood, beards, and loot. It's immediately comparable to other dungeon-crawling hack and slashers like Diablo, right down to the near identical radial equipment menu. Vikings certainly doesn't shy away from its inspirations, but it's so by-the-numbers that you do...
Talking Point What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 163
Spring time
We're into April now, which means that Easter is right around the corner and summer looms temptingly on the horizon. It also means that, while most of the big blockbusters have been pushed out ahead of the new fiscal year, there's a colourful array of smaller content for you to sink your teeth into. The question is: what are you playing?...
News The Last of Us: Part II Recruits Westworld Actress Shannon Woodward
But who will she play?
While the bulk of Naughty Dog is either busy collecting awards or polishing off spin-off Uncharted: The Lost Legacy, it does seem like a large part of the team is also making progress on The Last of Us: Part II. And while updates on the title have been few and far between, Twitter has revealed today that Westworld
Poll Has Persona 5 Been Worth the Hype?
Now it's personal
Persona 5 launched just a few days ago, so naturally, we want to know what you lot think of it so far. Atlus' role-playing game is currently the third highest rated PlayStation 4 release ever on Metacritic, sitting at a supremely impressive metascore of 94. According to the press, the years upon years of waiting have been well...
News Digimon Story: Hacker's Memory Downloads a Slick New Trailer
Shows a load of new monsters
Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth - Hacker's Memory may have an overly long and awkward name, but it's looking like another great role-playing game for fans of Japan's digital monsters. The title's scheduled for a 2018 release here in the West, which gives us plenty of time to devour Japanese teaser trailers like the one we've...
News A Brand New Naruto Game Is in the Works on PS4
Back for more
Apparently leaked ahead of its official announcement, a brand new Naruto game is in the works titled Naruto to Boruto: Shinobi Striker. Judging by the trailer that we've embedded above, it'll centre around 4-on-4 multiplayer battles in arena-like maps. The project looks reasonably far along as far as development goes, so we wouldn't be...
News Shiness: The Lightning Kingdom Looks Better Every Time We See It
Surprise hit?
Shiness: The Lightning Kingdom is an action role-playing game that we've had our eye on for quite some time. Crafted by French indie studio Enigami, it certainly looks like an ambitious project for such a relatively small studio to take on - but with risk comes opportunity and all that. Hopefully the title turns out to be a surprise...
News Uncharted 4 Brings Home the BAFTA for Best Game
The Last Guardian also wins award
It's time to stop. We're approaching mid-April and Uncharted 4: A Thief's End has been winning awards for what feels like an eternity now.

Guide Persona 5: Tips and Tricks For Phantom Thieves of All Skill Levels
Let us start the game
Persona 5 is probably the most accessible game in Atlus' series thus far. It's got plenty of small tutorials that ease you into each system, and a range of difficulty options cater to players of all skill levels. Having said that, though, Persona 5 can still seem rather daunting at times. The fact that the game runs on a...
Guide Persona 5: Best Ending Walkthrough - Good, Bad, and Other Endings
How to get the true ending in Persona 5
Does Persona 5 have a bad ending? Yes, yes it does. It's actually got multiple bad endings, one questionable ending, and one good ending - at least, as far as we know. In this guide, we'll be showing you how to avoid the bad endings and end the game on a relatively happy note. We've split this Persona 5...
Draw some
Drawn to Death plays like Twisted Metal, Quake, and Street Fighter all had a big violent orgy in Screech from Saved by the Bell's ring-bound high school jotter. This raucous online-only third-person shooter is bulging with so much personality that many won't be able to see beyond the d*ck jokes and crude art direction, but what lies behind...
News There's One Xbox Scorpio Feature PS4 Pro Needs to Steal Soon
Universal supersampling
Sony's decision to allow developers to do whatever they want to with the PlayStation 4 Pro certainly has its benefits: it puts less pressure on already taxed teams and it gives studios more freedom to explore what they feel is best for their game. But there is a catch: with so many different approaches, a few games don't take...
Feature Have Mass Effect: Andromeda's Weird Eyes Been Fixed?
Everyone's face is a lot less tired
A new patch is out for Mass Effect: Andromeda on the PlayStation 4 which promises to improve the game's weird eyes. As was demonstrated by the slew of GIFs around launch, the title had some dodgy shaders on characters' optics which caused them to look… Well, a bit half-soaked, shall we say? But the latest patch...
News Mass Effect: Andromeda PS4 Patch 1.05 Is Out Now, Features Loads of Improvements
Eye eye captain
Mass Effect: Andromeda's first big update is now available on PlayStation 4. Patch 1.05 promises a slew of improvements to BioWare's recently released title, which launched in a rough state.

Reaction Will Sony Be Scared of the Xbox Scorpio?
Sting in the tail
Xbox's premium console Project Scorpio has been a source of conversation ever since a 90 second trailer outed the device at E3 2016 almost 12 months ago. With manufacturer Microsoft saying very little about the system since, it's become a bit of a fan's fancy – there's been so much speculation on enthusiast forums like NeoGAF...
Review LEGO City Undercover (PS4)
Prison break
The LEGO games are famous for their humorous adaptations of popular movie properties and comic book characters, but in more recent times developers TT Games and TT Fusion have begun creating their own LEGO adventures. This year's LEGO Worlds saw the franchise's detailed take on Minecraft, and only a month later the distinguished brick's...
News Meet Dragon Quest Heroes II's Troublesome Twins in New Gameplay Trailer
Sibling rivalry
Dragon Quest IV twins Meena and Maya are casting and dancing their way into Dragon Quest Heroes II, respectively. The game's latest trailer shows the siblings in action against a range of different foes, and it's nice to see such distinct fighting styles on show. We're especially liking Maya's ability to transform into a dragon and...
News It Seems Musou Stars Is Almost Certainly Heading West
Koei Tecmo files a trademark
Never a company to shy away from shipping its latest games overseas, Koei Tecmo has trademarked 'Warriors All-Stars' in Europe. We're 99.9 per cent sure that this will end up being the localised name for Musou Stars - the crossover action title that features a bunch of Koei Tecmo characters from various properties...
Hands On Formula Fusion Is a Frenetic and Fun Futuristic Racer
Who said WipEout?
The futuristic, anti-gravity sub-genre of racing games is going through a resurgence right now. Just two years ago, the only two names in the conversation were F-Zero and WipEout, and both series sadly faded away into obscurity. The latter is obviously making its overdue return in June, but beyond that, this particular breed of...
News Persona 5 Is a Commercial Smash for Atlus
Over 1.5 million copies shipped
Persona 5 is a certified hit for Atlus, as the company has announced that over 1.5 million copies have been shipped worldwide. We know that around 550,000 units were sold in Japan when it released last year, so that means roughly one million copies have been distributed around the rest of the globe. Given that the...
