News Push Square to Doubt These L.A. Noire PS4 Remaster Rumours
WTF?
There are rumours that Rockstar's readying a remaster of… Well, er, L.A. Noire. It all started with a notorious Grand Theft Auto fansite contributor, who claimed that Team Bondi's crime drama was coming to the Nintendo Switch of all systems. Then another Twitter source – with less than 1,000 followers, we'll note ??
Review Tales of Berseria (PS4)
Velvet not cut from the same cloth
You can always count on the Tales series to keep to its roots. While the latest Final Fantasy might have divided opinion with its more Westernised open world direction, Tales of Berseria is a far more typical Japanese role-playing game that continues – and develops, in some meaningful ways – the genre's...
News PS4 Pro Is a 'Half-Assed Upgrade' Compared to Scorpio, Says Xbox Dev
Here we go
Nothing like a good bit of drama, eh? A good bit of banter with the NeoGAF boys, something to rile people up on an otherwise quiet Wednesday night. In a post on the aforementioned forum, Thomas Mahler, CEO of Moon Studios, jumps into the fray to spew the virtues of the upcoming Xbox Scorpio project. The developer, best known for Xbox One...
News Horizon: Zero Dawn Assembles a Metric Ton of Merchandising Tat
How much crap can you hold?
How hard is Sony going to shove Horizon: Zero Dawn down your throat? Harder than a well-endowed man with a moustache it seems. Hot on the heels of yesterday's bundle announcement, the platform holder has announced… Well, a frankly staggering amount of merchandise. If this doesn't prove just how much the manufacturer is...

News We're Blasting Off with a New Mass Effect: Andromeda Trailer Tomorrow
Into the void
This industry just loves to build things up, doesn't it? Announcements of announcements, teaser trailers teasing actual trailers... The hype peddling just never stops, and BioWare's as guilty as anyone. The Canadian developer's been puffing its chest regarding Mass Effect: Andromeda for years now - long before we actually saw the game...
Guide Where to Find All 18 Antique Coins in Resident Evil 7
Pelicans in your pocket
Resident Evil 7's upgrade system is, quite frankly, genius. In order to maintain consistency with the grounded nature of the campaign, Capcom has done away with Australian accented merchants and complicated mission complete screens. Instead, it's incorporated Antique Coins: collectibles located around the Baker plantation...
News Square Enix Teases 'Exciting Announcement' Coming Tomorrow, Probably Final Fantasy XII
Cheeky Baschtards
Those scamps over at Square Enix think that they're clever, but we're onto them... Or so we think. Earlier today, it was brought to our attention that Trophies for upcoming PlayStation 4 remaster Final Fantasy XII: The Zodiac Age are live on Sony's servers, and now Square Enix is saying that it has an "exciting announcement"...
News Pray for Prey from 5th May on PS4
Talos all you know
It's been flying under the radar since it was re-announced, but there's a small chance Prey could scratch that BioShock itch you've been desperately trying to ignore. Bethesda has announced that the first-person shooter – created by Dishonored developer Arkane – will face-off against an extraterrestrial threat starting 5th...
News Dance to the Sound of Akiba's Beat on PS4, Vita This Spring
Electric town
Akiba's Beat has been delayed into the nebulous Spring 2017 window in Europe, but publisher PQube has announced a Limited Edition to make up for it. The game – which still looks set for a 14th March release in North America – is a successor to the Akiba's Trip titles, but instead of pervy brawling instead has a more role-playing...
News Final Fantasy XII: The Zodiac Age's Trophies Tease Imminent Release
Trinkets already on Sony's servers
There's no date attached to role-playing remaster Final Fantasy XII: The Zodiac Age just yet, but it looks like the game is ready to go. Trophies for the title have appeared on tracking websites overnight, and this usually doesn't occur until a title has gone gold and its trinkets have been added to Sony's servers...
News Japanese Sales Charts: Gravity Rush Goes Top as Valkyria Revolution Flops
PS4 still the hardware king
Gravity Rush 2 has floated straight to the top of the latest Japanese software charts, shifting 74,361 copies. Certainly not an amazing number, but it's not quite terrible either, and it's an improvement over the sales of the original Gravity Rush. In any case, it's nice to see Kat at least make it to the summit - even if...
News PlayStation VR Scores an Officially Licensed Headstand
Tête-à-tête
Add this to the list of weirdest PlayStation accessories: PlayStation VR is getting its own official headstand.

It comes with a sturdy chrome base, an...
News VR Ping Pong Bats a Path to PlayStation VR
Smash hit
For all of the amazing games on the PlayStation 3, some of your humble host's fondest memories are of playing table tennis in Sports Champions. The controls and physics in that particular minigame were just brilliant, and while the package as a whole was quite soulless, this author lost many an hour to it, batting balls back at plain faced...
News Eliza's Back for Blood in New Tekken 7 Trailer
Drink up
Eliza caused a bit of a stir when she was originally plopped into free-to-play PlayStation 3 title Tekken Revolution. A vampire who has access to a few long-range attacks and a series of not-typically-Tekken moves, many players thought that she was just a touch too anime for the property - and to be fair, she does sort of stand out, even as...
Review Kingdom Hearts HD 2.8 Final Chapter Prologue (PS4)
A sight for Sora eyes
It's baffling to consider that a new Kingdom Hearts hasn't been released on consoles in over a decade. The series' sappy emotion, bizarre juxtaposition of characters, and overly convoluted story may drive many away, but there's a stirring magic and innocence to it all that has never waned on us. Kingdom Hearts HD 2.8 Final...
News Overwatch Celebrates the Chinese New Year with Rooster Update
Cock-a-doodle-doo
Overwatch has already piggybacked several real-world celebrations, and now it's cock-a-doodle-dooing to the tune of the Chinese New Year.

News Stock Up on PS4 Must Haves with NA PlayStation Essentials Sale
Caught on the way down
Another week, another chance to bulk up on cheap and cheerful PlayStation 4 games. Sony's launched the PlayStation Essentials sale on the North American PlayStation Store, and this one is chock full of must own releases. In truth, it's missing a number of games that you'd expect with that kind of name, but deals like Batman:...
News Boy Wonder Battles Batman in Injustice 2 Robin Trailer
Reliant Robin
NetherRealm releases are impressive beasts. On sites like this it always feels like fighting genre stalwarts Street Fighter and Tekken have the upper-hand, and it's true that they'll command most of the attention in the competitive scene. But still, games like Mortal Kombat X garner ridiculous traction among the mainstream, and looking...
Talking Point Should Sony Really Curate the PlayStation Store More?
X Factor
There's been a suggestion from some parts of the media that Sony should curate the PlayStation Store more heavily. It's a topic that's likely risen to prominence as we're in a quiet period right now, but everyone's having a say about it, from high-profile YouTubers all the way through to big-name publications. But is it really something...
Guide Which Difficulty Should You Play Resident Evil 7 On?
Madhouse
There are three different difficulty settings for you to choose from in Resident Evil 7, but which one should you pick? Unlike in most games, the options do more than tweak health settings, so we figured that we'd break down all of the differences for you so that you can choose which one is for you. We should stress straight away that...
Hands On Final Fantasy XV's Moogle Chocobo Carnival Is Fun for All of Five Minutes
At least you can get in for free
We didn't have high hopes for Final Fantasy XV's first real slice of additional content, and to be brutally honest, it feels like we've wasted an hour of our life just giving it a try. The Moogle Chocobo Carnival, which is only available for a limited amount of time, redecorates the city of Altissia with colourful...
News Sony Announces Horizon: Zero Dawn PS4 Bundle, But It's Not a PS4 Pro
Box clever
Sony's strategy with the PlayStation 4 Pro is strange to say the least. The optional iterative console which launched last year makes a sizeable difference to standard PS4 releases, but the platform holder almost seems scared to promote it. And while we assumed that was merely a consequence of it keeping the spotlight on the PS4 Slim over...
News The Banner Saga's Third and Final Chapter Kicks Off Its Crowdfunding Campaign
Begin the march
The final chapter in The Banner Saga is supposedly launching in late 2018, but before developer Stoic can start thinking about pushing The Banner Saga 3 onto the PlayStation Store, it's going to need a bit of help from its fans. As with the studio's previous games, it's taken to Kickstarter in order to help fund its project. Stoic...
News Toukiden 2 Butchers Demons This March on PS4, Vita
Off with their limbs
Toukiden 2 is setting itself up to be a pretty interesting sequel, boasting much more open environments and a whole cast of new characters to interact with. The action role-playing title released in Japan last year, and as far as we're aware, it was well received. Of course, the first game and its enhanced re-release Toukiden:...
News Resident Evil 7's First DLC Launches Next Week on PS4
Cut content?
Hmmm. While we're champing at the bit for more of the excellent Resident Evil 7, we're not sure how we feel about the first pack being released so early. Nevertheless, Banned Footage Vol. 1 – which is available as part of the game's Season Pass or on its own for $9.99 – will deploy next week (31st January) on the PlayStation Store,...

Turing point
Most of us use a computer at least once a day. If we want to know the weather, we ask our phone. If we want to check our schedule, we scroll through our tablet. If we want to know what the traffic is like, we search it on our laptop. The Turing Test asks us to think about the implications of that ecosystem. It wants us to examine the...
News Yakuza 0 Grabs Free DLC and a Launch Trailer
Showtime
Hey, Yakuza 0 is out today, and we highly recommend it. The PlayStation 4 exclusive has seemingly pushed the niche series into the corner of the mainstream eye for the first time in forever, and as far as we're concerned, any success that it finds is well deserved. The game's launch trailer is short but sweet, showing off all the stuff that...
Store Update 24th January 2017 (Europe)
A crazy week
There can be no question that 2017 has started strongly on the PlayStation 4, but this week's selection of new software is particularly insane. You'll need to select between Yakuza 0, Kingdom Hearts: We're Not Typing the Full Title Here, and Resident Evil 7: Biohazard – a frightening array of impressive wares. Plus there are some...
News Final Fantasy XV Will Be Geeking Out with a Monster Encyclopedia Update
Beastly
Final Fantasy XV has some brilliant monster designs. From herds of wild animals to raging demons, the game's got beasts to cover every base, and they're all great to look at. If you like studying strange creatures as much as we do then you're in luck, as director Hajime Tabata has said a patch is in the works that adds a monster...
News Don't Forget the Glacier White PS4 Slim Drops Today in Europe
Very ice
Just a subtle reminder: the Glacier White PlayStation 4 Slim releases today across Europe. Sony announced the snowy console right back at the start of the year, and the dreamy device is finally ready to deploy. While it will set you back a bit (it's selling for £259.99 on Amazon UK), we reckon that the slimmer system looks downright smexy...
Guide Four Resident Evil 7 Tips Which May Save Your Ass
Baker foil
Resident Evil 7 is a ruthless game. The antagonistic Bakers ain't messing about, and they will take you down. The good news is that you'll have the opportunity to fight back, you just need to know how. While we didn't want to put up a guide riddled with spoilers showing you exactly what to do in each scenario – where's the fun in that...
Feature Tales of Berseria Goes For a Darker Kind of RPG Party
Not your usual group of teenagers
The Tales series has always taken its main cast of characters pretty seriously, and Tales of Berseria is no different. The upcoming action role-playing game takes a slightly different path to its predecessors, opting to focus on a more mature story that's pushed to the forefront by a somewhat troubled playable...
News Resident Evil 7 Sharpens Up the Scares on PS4 Pro
Sony's new hardware leveraged to great effect
Resident Evil 7 is a stunning game. Running at a near locked 60 frames-per-second, the release has some ridiculously good lighting, which makes its Louisiana setting sing on the PlayStation 4. But the title's also making use of the PS4 Pro in some pretty positive ways, as this comparison between the two...
News Tekken 7 Fights Back with Exclusive PS4 Content
PlayStation VR support also re-confirmed
We're not the biggest fans of exclusive content, but let's get real for a minute here: the market for Tekken 7 is absolutely on the PlayStation 4. And publisher Bandai Namco seems to have recognised that, confirming that there will be a bunch of exclusive extras in the Sony SKU of the game. These include...
Live Final Fantasy XV Stream Invites You to the Moogle Chocobo Carnival
Chocobo-a-go-go
Want to know more about Final Fantasy XV's Moogle Chocobo Carnival?

Thankfully, the publisher's hosting a livesteam tonight at 18:00 GMT that should answer most of our...
Feature Is Resident Evil 7 Any Good with PlayStation VR?
Back to the Kitchen
Resident Evil 7 is something of a rarity: it's a major PlayStation 4 title which can be played in virtual reality from start-to-finish using PlayStation VR. There are very few cut corners here – aside from the pre-rendered cut-scenes which annoyingly play in Cinematic Mode – and Capcom deserves credit for that; at a time when...
News Resident Evil 7's Meaty 806.1MB Day One PS4 Patch Fleshes Out Survival Horror

You'll need to wring your hands a little longer before getting stuck into Resident Evil 7 on the PlayStation 4 this week, as the game has been updated with an 806.1MB day one patch. The update – which adds additional Trophies and support for upcoming expansion packs – is available to download right now, a day ahead of launch...
Review Resident Evil 7: Biohazard (PS4)
Bayou hazard
Ever since BSAA beefcake Chris Redfield exacted grievous bodily harm on a boulder, the Resident Evil franchise has been on a bit of a downward spiral. Sure, the Revelations side-stories delivered disposable enough entertainment, but numbered entry Resident Evil 6 was a rotter through and through. Resident Evil 7: Biohazard aims to drag...
Video Should You Buy Resident Evil 7 on PS4?
The great bloody Baker off
Resident Evil 7 starts strong and then flunks the home straight a little bit, but it's still the best Biohazard in a long time. If you're looking for a video review to go along with our written report, then you'll find exactly that above. In addition to commentary on the game itself, this clip includes tons of spoiler-free...

News Tekken 7 Delayed to Avoid Mistakes of Games Like Street Fighter V
Whiff punish
The good news is that Tekken 7 has a confirmed PlayStation 4 release date - the bad news is that the game is no longer launching in early 2017. Now pegged for release on the 2nd June, the delay is admittedly a little hard to stomach since we've been waiting so long to begin with, but it's all for a good cause, according to director...
News Dark Souls III: The Ringed City Prepares to Die on 28th March
Praise the sun
We weren't overly enamoured with Dark Souls III's first expansion pack, but hopefully The Ringed City can rectify things. The second major add-on is set to release on 28th March for the PlayStation 4, and is packed with familiar imagery of faraway castles and colossal beasts. Will you be psyching yourself up for this date with death?...

News Final Fantasy XV Original Soundtrack Is Getting a Worldwide Release
Score
Although Final Fantasy XV's soundtrack doesn't quite measure up to the classics - as far as we're concerned, anyway - it's still a darn good listen, especially with that boss theme thrown into the mix. Yeah, you know the one. Anyway, a physical edition of the soundtrack, spread across four discs, has been available to buy in Japan since last...
Rumour Tekken 7 Launches Early June on PS4
Summer slugfest
Jeez, the Tekken 7 rumour train has really left the station today. Hot on the heels of a supposed deluxe edition that features the return of vampire fighter Eliza, Amazon may have just leaked the game's release date, which is being officially announced at some point this week. The retailer currently has a page for the title's...

News Tekken 7 Gameplay Shows the Latest PS4 Build in Action
Excellent
We haven't seen all that much of Tekken 7 running on a PlayStation 4 - or anything outside of an arcade unit for that matter - but thanks to the power of YouTube, we're able to share the latest build of the game running on Sony's console. The footage, posted by TrueTekken, is taken from the title's recent Nordic Tour. Featuring Miguel and...
News PS4 Exclusive Horizon: Zero Dawn Skips Bothersome Microtransactions
Pure and simple
We've played Horizon: Zero Dawn, and let us be clear: you can practically feel money pouring out of the screen. Sony's not been shy in stating that Guerrilla Games' open world adventure is one of its highest budget projects to date, but the platform holder won't be slyly recouping those costs by incorporating bothersome...
Rumour Vampire Fighter Eliza Returns in Tekken 7's Deluxe Edition
Along with an extra game mode
Okay, who remembers Eliza, the very-anime vampire from free-to-play title Tekken Revolution? Boasting projectile attacks and a crazy look, she was something of a divisive addition to the character roster, but despite her odd nature, it looks like she's returning in Tekken 7 - but only if you nab the so-called deluxe...
News Dead or Alive Xtreme 3 Brings Eye Candy to PlayStation VR This Week
Girl power
PlayStation VR's killer app will finally release this week – and no, we're not talking about Resident Evil 7.

News UK Sales Charts: Gravity Rush 2 Slinks Outside Top Ten
Me-oh
Gravity Rush 2, for all of its critical acclaim, was always going to be an impossible sell, and unfortunately the superhero sequel has failed to break the UK sales charts top ten.

News Of Course You Can Fish in NieR Automata on PS4
Rod action
There's a law in Japan that states if you're making an open world title you must include a fishing minigame; Final Fantasy XV, New Hot Shots Golf (!!!), and now NieR Automata are evidence of that. Of course, the original release was famous for its rubbish rod action, so we've been eager to see if 2B falls into the same trap – hookline...
News Resident Evil 7 Custom PS4 Controller Has Dummy Fingers for Triggers
You are dead
Vulpe Andrei is a dab hand at console and controller mods, having been behind some of our favourites in the past. But this custom Resident Evil 7 DualShock 4 is a cut above his usual work; the attention to detail is insane. While the pad's ugly by design, we absolutely love some of the touches, like the use of dummy fingers for the...

News Ghost Recon: Wildlands Resurfaces with 21 Minutes of Single-Player PS4 Gameplay
Getting the job done
Up until this point, we've seen a decent amount of Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon: Wildlands, but mostly from a co-op perspective.

Well, Ubisoft's released a 21 minute demo in which...

Following Destiny's The Dawning event, which took place over much of December and early January, it feels like the social shooter has once again fallen off to the side.

Video Sony Must Not Allow PlayStation VR to Wilt
Time to talk
So, here's the thing: PlayStation VR's not for everyone and that's fine.
