News Dragon Ball XenoVerse 2 Open Beta Is Live on PS4
Super
Up for some over-the-top anime style action? You're in luck if so, because the Dragon Ball XenoVerse 2 open beta is now live on PlayStation 4 - all you have to do is grab it from the PlayStation Store. We were lucky enough to gain access to the closed beta last week, and we enjoyed what we played, even if it did feel a little too familiar at...

News PS4 Slumps to Third Successive NPD Defeat
Choppy waters
Batten the hatches, spit in Shawn Layden's face, and curse Kaz Hirai's complacency: Sony failed to defeat the Xbox One in the September NPD, meaning that's three times in a row now that the PlayStation 4 has not been the best-selling system in the United States. We suppose after three straight years on top, it had to give everyone else...
News PlayStation VR Can Be Used with Wii U, Xbox One, PC
Well, kinda
You can use PlayStation VR's spiffy Cinematic Mode to enjoy non-virtual reality PlayStation 4 games using your expensive new purchase – but did you know that it also works with a PC, Xbox One, or Wii U? The setup itself is simple: replace the HDMI cord coming out of your PS4 and into the Processing Unit with your console or computer of...
Review NOW That's What I Call Sing 2 (PS4)
Come and get it if you really want it
NOW That's What I Call Sing 2 is really only a game for people who like modern pop music. Only one or two of the 30 songs on the soundtrack were made before 2016, and even then they're five years old at their oldest; the fact that one of these songs is 'Sexy and I Know It' by LMFAO is enough to mark this game...
News Sword Art Online: Hollow Realization's Main Story Will Take Around 40 Hours to Finish
70 to 100 if you're maxing out
We remember reviewing Sword Art Online Re: Hollow Fragment and being left slightly surprised by just how long the game took to finish. Even at around 40 to 50 hours in, we felt as though there was still so much to see and do - and we suppose that's exactly what a lot of people want from their role-playing adventures...
An existential acid trip
Rez may have started life on the Dreamcast all the way back in 2001, but veteran Tetsuya Mizuguchi's synaesthesia shooter has finally found its true home on PlayStation VR. Despite being released on dozens of platforms over the past decade-and-a-half – including, of course, the PlayStation 2 – it feels like those...

Waifu simulator
If this turns out to be the last article that you ever read from your disgraced editor, then you'll know that Interpol raided Push Square Towers shortly after going to press.

News Sony Forecasting 'Hundreds of Thousands' of PlayStation VR Sales
Platform holder increasing production capacity
Sony's said that it expects to sell "hundreds of thousands" of PlayStation VR headsets at launch, which may make the company the de facto virtual reality market leader by the end of the day.

Weirdness Inside's Soundtrack was Created Using a Human Skull
Seriously
What the heck? According to a very detailed and informative article over on Gamasutra, brilliant PlayStation 4 indie Inside's soundtrack was created using an actual human skull. No, you read that right - composer and sound designer Martin Stig used a real human skull and jawbone to help make the game's music. "Early on, as we were working...
Talking Point What's Your PlayStation VR Launch Experience Been Like?
It's a virtual reality
PlayStation VR is out now around the world, which means that we're able to stop telling you how amazing it is, while you experience it for yourself. We've reviewed the hardware, given our verdict on a half-dozen or so games, and even discussed stuff such as Cinematic Mode – but now it's your t
News Sony Launches New PS4 Area for PlayStation VR Experiences
Non-games
As we've already explained on various occasions, PlayStation VR is about much more than games. Alongside the launch of Sony's headset today, the platform holder has assembled a series of "experiences", which will help you to get more out of your virtual reality device. And it's added an icon to the PlayStation 4's interface in order to...
News Final Fantasy VII Remake Battle System Will Be Detailed Next Time the Game's Shown
The good fight
It's been quite a while since we heard anything regarding Final Fantasy VII Remake, much to the disappointment of many an eager fan. The PlayStation 4 title was originally shown during Sony's utterly incredible E3 2015 press conference, and then we got a look at some gameplay later that year at the PlayStation Experience. We're hoping...
News Japan Lines Up for PlayStation VR Ahead of Launch
As stocks start to sell out worldwide
You can always judge the interest in a product in Japan by the size of its lines, and it looks like PlayStation VR has captured the attention of the tech enthusiasts in the East. The Wall Street Journal is reporting that many stores have been sold out of the headset since as early as June, with one man from...
News PS4 Pro Will Be Compatible with SATA 3 Hard Drives
That's a SATA of fact
Sony hasn't said much about the PlayStation 4 Pro since it was revealed, with much of its attention being focused on PlayStation VR over the past few weeks. But one thing it has clarified following an interview with Japanese website 4Gamer.net is that the new system will support SATA 3 hard drives, unlike its predecessor. For...
Video Rez Infinite Is PlayStation VR's Killer App
A masterpiece
Rez may have been kicking around since late 2001 on the Dreamcast, but despite launching on several platforms since – including the PlayStation 2 – it finally feels at home on PlayStation VR. While you can play this modernised version of the cult classic without Sony's spiffy headset, the fact of the matter is that Rez Infinite was...
News PS4 Controller Scoring Full Native Steam Support
Turn the Valve
The DualShock 4 has become a popular controller option for PC players, and so Valve is adding native compatibility for the PlayStation 4 peripheral on its Steam platform. "Believe it or not, when you use the PS4 controller through the Steam API, it's exactly the same as a Steam controller," Jeff Bellinghausen said during a panel at...
News Robinson: The Journey Roams to PlayStation VR on 8th November
Dino Crysis
Crytek will take you on a tour of a dinosaur-infested otherworld from 8th November in North America and 9th November in Europe, as that's when PlayStation VR exclusive Robinson: The Journey will release. It's a terrible name, we agree – but what we've seen of the game has been decent enough. You can hear some of our early impressions...
Opinion Which PlayStation VR Launch Games Should You Buy?
RIGS? DriveClub? Batman!
PlayStation VR has a gigantic launch lineup, and you're probably wondering which titles to buy right about now. While we still haven't sampled everything – the selection really is that big – we have played a pretty large selection, so we feel like we're pretty well placed to point you in the right direction. But which...
News Japanese Sales Charts: PS4 Enjoys Another Week at the Top
Holding steady
Unless you really like Monster Hunter spin-offs, there's not really much to talk about when it comes to the latest Japanese sales charts. Capcom's new Nintendo 3DS title unsurprisingly topped the software list, while the only fresh PlayStation release to make the top 20 was BlazBlue: Central Fiction. The stylish fighting game sequel...
News World of Final Fantasy's Opening Movie Features Familiar Faces
Heroic effort
Even though it's just a bit too cheery for our jaded tastes here at Push Square, we must admit that World of Final Fantasy's opening movie is actually pretty cool - particularly when it goes all anime with Cloud and the gang. Well worth a watch if you're looking forward to the charming little role-playing release, which launches on the...

Only muggles allowed

In case you're not keeping up, Sony has erected a giant replica inside the train station, which doubles as a swish demo...
Hands On Dragon Ball XenoVerse 2 Seeks to Be a Safe But Solid Sequel
History repeats
Dragon Ball XenoVerse is a good game in itself, but it's one of those titles that's begging for a sequel. For a first attempt, XenoVerse gets a heck of a lot right, but as is the case with many licensed Japanese titles, it's really just laying the foundations for something bigger and better. Enter Dragon Ball XenoVerse 2 - a sequel...
News Hitman Heads to Hokkaido at the End of the Month
A hit, man
We're a cynical bunch here in the games media, and we like to have a grumble when things don't work out exactly like we want them to. Hitman was one such game that received the full pelt of the industry's ire, with its complicated episodic format being the source of irritation. But, y'know what? Credit where it's due: IO Interactive and...
Video Unlock Your Inner-Alan Shearer with Headmaster on PS4
Back of the net
Alan Shearer knew how to head a football, and you can learn too if you play Headmaster for PlayStation VR. Much like Job Simulator, this game has a sharp sense of humour, essentially seeing you assume the role of a down-on-his-luck footballer who's been sent back to heading school after squandering some gilt-edged chances. It's a...
Video Racing Around the Bend in DriveClub VR on PS4
Need for speed
There can be few better fits for virtual reality than sitting inside the cockpit of a supercar and racing around scenic settings. DriveClub VR attempts to repurpose the core gameplay of its popular PlayStation 4 forebear for PlayStation VR, stripping it of its visual fidelity but adding all-important head tracking in the process. In...
Video Does PlayStation VR Put the Ultra in Super Stardust?
Making its (House)marque
It's becoming tradition for a version of Super Stardust to launch alongside new Sony hardware, and PlayStation VR is no different. While Super Stardust Ultra VR is, for all intents and purposes, the same version of the game that released on the PlayStation 4 last year, it has been furnished with a new mode which sees you...
Video A Close Match in RIGS: Mechanized Combat League on PS4
To the wire
RIGS: Mechanized Combat League doesn't exactly bloom in single player, but we did manage to capture gameplay footage of a match that went to the wire while penning our review. This was a cup game, and was against a particularly tough opponent, so we reckon that our team – the Valkyries – held their own pretty well. In addition to an...
Eyes on the road
One day, the veterans of Evolution Studios will tell their great grandchildren the tale of DriveClub, and it'll make for entertaining listening. The first-party, selected as one of the teams to help launch the PlayStation 4, missed its deadline by a country mile – and then delivered a product that ultimately didn't work. But the...
Video Red Dead Revolver PS4 Readies Us for Redemption 2
Straight to the Wild Wild West
This author's last-last-gen Western of choice was Activision's cult classic GUN, so Red Dead Revolver kinda got lost in our boots. But Rockstar wasn't peddling snake oil back in 2004 – this game was clearly ahead of its time. Turning back the clocks with this PlayStation 4 port, the control scheme feels almost...
News Titanfall 2 Is Really Pushing Its Single Player Campaign
Mech it happen
Respawn Entertainment really wants to you to care about Titanfall 2's single player offering, to the point there it's released a another trailer dedicated to the futuristic shooter's campaign.

News PlayStation's Adventure Icons United in UK PS4 Bundle

News Rise of the Tomb Raider's Retro Press Kit Is the Best You'll Ever See
A whole Lara love
Sony always makes the best press kits – but it may have been beaten by Square Enix here. In order to celebrate the launch of Rise of the Tomb Raider on the PlayStation 4, the publisher's really playing up the property's origins – and it's been sending press copies of the game in a classic PSone case. It just feels right,...
Round Up Mafia III Takes a Bullet or Two in First Reviews
Fed to the alligators?
Mafia III's off to a bit of a rough start in the reviews department, it would seem. The sandbox mob-'em-up launched last week on PlayStation 4, but critic reviews are only just beginning to roll in due to the fact that publisher 2K Games didn't want to send pre-release review code to anyone that isn't a YouTuber. Some of the...
A Shu-in
Recent years have seen the resurgence of a genre largely swept under the carpet: the 2D platformer. Perhaps encouraged by the triumphant return of Rayman in Origins and Legends, indie developers have been working hard to bring back the simple thrills of running, jumping, and then running some more. With even Sega bringing us Sonic Mania...
Store Update 11th October 2016 (Europe)
The biggest ever?
This must be some kind of record! Sony's dropped the European PlayStation Store update, and between PlayStation VR and a slew of holiday heavy hitters, this has to be the largest refresh ever. This author's been writing about PlayStation for eons now, but can't ever remember this many titles dropping in the same week. PS4 Games:...
Out Today Lara Croft Returns to PS4 in Rise of the Tomb Raider
Home at last
Just a heads up: Rise of the Tomb Raider has finally released on the PlayStation 4 today. To be fair, Square Enix has done a decent job rekindling hype for Ms. Croft's latest expedition – even if it is over a year late. But with PlayStation VR out this week and other major titles on the horizon, you could be forgiven for forgetting...
News 100ft Robot Golf's Launch Trailer Totally Nails It
Gun-dam it

Will the...
News Hallowe'en Loot Boxes Say Boo to Overwatch
Reaper's ready
It's probably the worst kept secret in history, but Overwatch is getting Hallowe'en loot boxes. Hurrah! You may or may not have seen these leaking all over the web over the past few weeks, with the title's Taiwanese website now going live with a front-page splash, showing Australian double-act Junkrat and Roadhog in their...

Video Does PlayStation VR Work with Wireless Headphones?
Gold standard
While it was Cinematic Mode that many of you were asking about in our PlayStation VR review, we received a lot of queries about wireless headphones, too.

We've fallen in love with it on the occasions that we've...
Review Dragon Quest Builders (PS4)
New kid on the block
As far as world-building block-'em-ups go, Dragon Quest Builders has to be the most charming example of the genre that we've played. Perhaps that's to be expected of the long running property – which, throughout its many incarnations, has always been a delight to experience – but the Dragon Quest skin lends itself...
News The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim - Special Edition Goes Gold on PS4
Enhanced re-release is out later this month
October is well and truly packed with new PlayStation 4 releases, but we reckon that there's still just enough room for notable remasters - especially when one of the most successful role-playing games of all time is being brought forward to the current generation. The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim - Special...
News Has Mass Effect Andromeda's PS4 Release Date Fallen into Focus?
Geth a load of this
Mass Effect Andromeda is never coming out – at this juncture, we're convinced that BioWare employees are merely going to continue tweeting about how amazing it is until the end of time. Still, we suppose the title did put in an appearance during Sony's big PlayStation 4 Pro press conference, and there's also N7 Day [Grumble –...
News PlayStation VR Freebie The Playroom VR Has a Platinum
Bot's your lot

News UK Sales Charts: Mafia III Crushes Predecessor's Sales Record Like Candy
An offer you couldn't refuse
Perhaps the Vinnie Jones promotion paid off after all, as Mafia III has soared to near the top of the UK sales charts, registering a 58.7 per cent improvement over its predecessor. Unsurprisingly with that kind of stat, the open world crime title secured the biggest launch week in the series' history thus far – and...
Push Rewind PlayStation VR Reviews, Modern Warfare Remastered, Mafia III
Virtually ridiculous
Look at that list of features! We were absolutely swamped here at Push Square this week, but we put out a mammoth amount of content, with a ton of PlayStation VR coverage. And this only represented week one of our virtual reality blow-out – expect another wealth of coverage over the coming days. Reviews: PlayStation VR...
All work and no pay
As short-lived girl group The Saturdays once warbled, put your boots on baby and get to work. Some reviewers like to start their reviews by recycling the words of Charles Dickens; here at Push Square we prefer to borrow from the surprisingly short range of Ms. Mollie King. It's the kind of irreverence that we like to think Job...
Video Job Simulator's Some of the Dumbest Fun You'll Find on PS4
Working out
The simulator gag has gotten stale, but Job Simulator brings enough laughs to the novelty genre to land a new punchline. This bonkers work-'em-up is set in the future, where robots simulate the menial tasks of today with a disregard for details. This means that, while you'll be carrying out tedious tasks such as making soup and fixing...
Hands On Does PlayStation VR Really Have Tracking Issues?
Dreaded drift
In some ways, it's a shame that the PlayStation VR embargo had to lift. We'd encountered problems with the headset prior to this week's verdicts, which we outlined in our review: the resolution of the screen, the number of cables, and the flawed nature of the PlayStation Move controllers. But we hadn't encountered any tracking issues...
News PlayStation VR Will Play Host to More Than Just Games
Sony outlines full roster of experiences, too
PlayStation VR may be all about the games, but the reality is that virtual reality has a greater role to play than that. Fortunately, platform holder Sony seems to recognise this, and it'll be launching a variety of "experiences" and "video services" alongside the headset from launch through into 2017...
Hands On Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Remastered Is Far More Than Its Title Suggests
Shock and awe
What is a "remaster"? The moniker implies an older game that has been updated to adequately match the technological standards of the present day in numerous ways, such as with polished assets, minor alterations to gameplay, and so forth. Uncharted: The Nathan Drake Collection and Twilight Princess HD are excellent examples, but what...
Video Should You Buy Mafia III for Your PS4?
Mob job
As is widely known already, 2K Games didn't send out advance review code for Mafia III, so we're only just digging into the New Bordeaux-based drama. But should you buy it? Well, we've streamed over an hour of gameplay footage so that you can get a feel for the crime caper – and you can watch the archived footage above. Are you planning...

His rage knows no bounds
Spanish brawler Miguel is back for another round in Tekken 7, a lovely new character trailer confirms.

Boy racer
One of your most loyal companions in Final Fantasy XV is actually the party's main mode of transportation: the Regalia.

The Regalia has always been a treat for the eyes - even editor Sammy Barker reckons it looks...
Hands On Dragon Quest Builders Is One of the Most Addictive Games of 2016
Can't stop the block
We can't stop playing Dragon Quest Builders on PlayStation 4 - it's as simple as that.

Like, properly huge
Y'know that feeling when you wake up in the morning and all of your troubles have melted away, only for them to come crashing back into your conscious like a nuclear bomb?

Hands On Playing Non-VR PS4 Games on PlayStation VR
Putting the Cinematic Mode through its paces

But what features can you use in this mode –...
Hands On Playing Our Own Way in Dishonored 2 on PS4
Corvo, blimey?
It's been 15 years since the events of Dishonored, and we've left the city of Dunwall behind for the vast streets of Karnaca.

"Doesn't happen without them"

News PS4 Exclusive Gravity Rush 2 Tumbles into 2017
Another one bites the dust
Well, this is becoming an unfortunate reoccurrence, isn't it? There's not one game that Sony hasn't delayed this year, and Gravity Rush 2 is the latest to join the "pushed back" party. To be fair to the Japan Studio developed title, this very much appears to be a marketing move rather than a production problem – but that...

Review Batman: Arkham VR (PS4)
Behind the mask
Rocksteady's never been shy depicting Batman as the mentally deranged individual that he so clearly is, and with the British studio back on development duties for this short virtual reality story, it's Bruce Wayne's busted psyche that once again takes centre stage. Batman: Arkham VR may only take you about an hour to see through, but...
News For Honor Spilt-Screen Co-Op Cut Completely, Not Just From Online Play
Cleaved in two
Earlier today, news broke that upcoming medieval brawler For Honor has dropped support for split-screen play, although comments made by producer Stephane Cardin made unclear whether he was referring to online co-op only. Sadly, as it turns out, the worst-case scenario is upon us, in that split-screen is being cut from the game...
