News Darkest Dungeon Crawls onto PS4, Vita on 27th September
Don't forget your torch
We've been waiting a while for Darkest Dungeon to make its way to PlayStation 4 and PlayStation Vita, but developer Red Hook Studios has announced that we can finally get our hands on it on 27th September. The roguelike dungeon crawler gives players control of a band of heroes in a Gothic setting five hundred feet below the...
News Japanese Sales Charts: Toukiden 2 Slays Its Way Into Top 5 on PS4, Vita
Demon hunting sequel has a decent start
Would you believe it - we've actually got something worth writing about when it comes to the latest Japanese sales charts. Toukiden 2 entered the software charts in fourth and fifth place on Vita and PlayStation 4 respectively, but neither version sold especially well, racking up around 100,000 units between...
News Inside Comes Out to Playdead on 23rd August
Sooner than expected
Following its Trophies leaking on Exophase a few days ago, Sony has now confirmed that the critically acclaimed Inside will launch on PlayStation 4 on 23rd August. Playdead's second title hit PC and Xbox One two months ago in June, and released to widespread praise from both critics and players. Its sudden arrival on...
Hands On Overwatch's Olympian PS4 Update Scores with Rocket League Mode
Blast ball
It was only a matter of time before Rocket League's herculean impact extended to other games, with Overwatch seemingly the first to "borrow" from Psyonix's sporting smash. Nintendo fans will probably expect mention of Blast Ball from Metroid Prime Federation Force, but seeing as that's not technically out for another couple of weeks, our...
News No Man's Sky PS4 Reviews Reportedly On Hold as Dev Finalises Day One Patch
No man's score
If you've been holding out for reviews of No Man's Sky before the game launches in less than a week, you may want to rethink your plans. In short, it's looking increasingly likely that publications aren't going to be sent review code before the space sim releases. Why this appears to be the case is up for debate, however. Usually,...
News Right, Here's What Final Fantasy XV's Season Pass Gets You
Now we know, kind of
In case you didn't know, Final Fantasy XV's getting a season pass, because, well, it's 2016 and this is video games. The pass was spotted on the North American PlayStation Store last night, but Square Enix hasn't revealed anything about the content that it includes, meaning that, as far as we're concerned, the whole thing's...

Limited edition loot boxes and a new football mode added
With the Rio OIympics just around the corner, Blizzard has announced on the US PlayStation Blog a new set of Summer Games content for Overwatch, lasting until 22nd August. Loot Boxes now have a new lick of Summer Games paint, and each box guarantees at least one limited edition Olympics-themed...
Video Does PS4 Dungeon Crawler Brut@l Kick ASCII?
"(◕‿◕)"
Throwback dungeon crawler Brut@l isn't set to launch on the PlayStation 4 until next week, but aware that a certain space sim is right around the corner, Scottish developer Stormcloud Games has allowed us to go live with our coverage a little earlier. Fortunately, the title stacks up nicely – a smart artstyle and some neat systems...
Store Update 2nd August 2016 (North America)
Serving up some smash hits
It's free PlayStation Plus week, which means everyone's getting Tricky Towers, regardless of whether you want it or not. Other highlights this time include Abzu and Overcooked, as well as Ape Escape 2 and the first episode in Telltale's new Batman series. PS4 Games: ABZÚ $19.99 APE ESCAPE 2 (PS2) $9.99 CANNON...
Review Batman: The Telltale Series - Episode 1: Realm of Shadows (PS4)
Gotham pity
Bruce Wayne's parents were murdered, y'know? You'd think that Telltale would be able to gloss over the most iconic origin story in superhero history, but the haughty Alfred Pennyworth takes an almost perverse pleasure in reminding you about the unfortunate fate of your mother and father at every opportunity. It's, as is always the case...
News Final Fantasy XV Gets its Inevitable Season Pass Reveal
No series is safe
Not even your most beloved franchises are safe from the season pass it would seem. The Digital Premium Edition of Final Fantasy XV, which is available to pre-order on the North American PlayStation Store for $84.99, comes with the aforementioned pass, while regular digital pre-orders can be upgraded to include it. So, what does...
News Destiny: Rise of Iron Details Creep Out of the Darkness
Light levels rising
And so it begins. It was only a matter of time before we started getting flooded with information regarding Destiny's upcoming September expansion, and Game Informer's got the scoop on a load of new details. For starters, the light level cap is getting raised beyond what we had initially thought. Right now, the light level...
News Diablo III Patch 1.14 Is Out Now on PS4
More Torment for your trouble
Diablo III's latest patch is out now on PlayStation 4. Detailed last week, update 1.14 adds three new difficulty levels: Torment XI, XII, and XIII. It also updates a bunch of legendary items and makes slight changes to various character classes. Blizzard's loot based role-playing game has been knocking about on Sony's...
Store Update 2nd August 2016 (Europe)
Water lot of great content
Too many games, too little time: the PlayStation 4 is awash with exciting additions this week, with Batman and Abzu being the highlights. We must spare a moment for multiplayer favourites Tricky Towers and Overcooked, too – the former of which is free with PlayStation Plus. PS4 Games: Dead Island Retro Revenge 1st...
News You Can Download August's Free PlayStation Plus Games Now
Stay positive
August's PlayStation Plus games are now available to download in Europe, so get signed in and add those bad boys to your library of backlog despair.

Rogue leg@cy
Anybody remember those dungeon crawlers from the eighties, the ones based on Dungeons & Dragons and made entirely in ASCII characters? Well, for those not versed in the storied history of tabletop and its transition onto the home computer, these titles were the earliest example of the roguelike. Classics like Moria, Angband, and...
News DOOM, Fallout 4 Lead Big Bethesda PSN Sale in North America
Fallout 4's season pass is going cheaper, too
There's a sale on Bethesda titles and downloadable content happening right now on the North American PlayStation Store, covering the company's catalogue on both PlayStation 3 and PlayStation 4. Obvious standouts include discounts on current-gen games like DOOM, Fallout 4, Wolfenstein: The New Order, and...
Feature 5 Things Berserk Needs to Get Right on PS4, Vita
Glory on the battlefield
Berserk is a superb manga series from Japanese artist Kentaro Miura. It's dark fantasy with a capital D, and it's more than deserving of a video game adaptation that does the original work justice. Fortunately, prolific publisher Koei Tecmo is on the case, and it's got Dynasty Warriors developer Omega Force doing the heavy...
Round Up Batman PS4 Reviews Reveal the Telltale Title We Deserve
Much ado about Bruce
There was a time when a new Telltale title was an event, but given how prolific the publisher's been with its episodic output of late, its Batman series has been met by murmurs rather than fervour. That said, we love the studio's style of game, and a tale that promises to spotlight Bruce Wayne as much as the Caped Crusader...
News Blizzard Sounds the Klaxon on Overwatch Olympics Outfits
Ready, steady, go
We wondered when the Rio 2016 Olympic Games were going to cameo in a game – and we're not referring to a certain potty-mouthed Wii U release. Overwatch looks like it's going to be the first, however, as Blizzard's sent a bunch of YouTubers and Twitch streamers packages featuring the shooter's cast of characters in sports gear. A...
News The Demon with the Greatest Name Is Playable in Berserk on PS4, Vita
Enter Nosferatu Zodd
Now we're talking! Nosferatu Zodd, one of Berserk's central characters, is going to be playable in the PlayStation 4 and Vita adaptation. The supremely powerful demon, who can alternate between humanoid and beast forms, will surely be a blast to use in Koei Tecmo's upcoming hack and slasher. We imagine that it won't be long...
News PS2 Classic Ape Escape 2 Does the Monkey on PS4
B-A-N-A-N-A-S
As the great Gwen Stefani once sang: "This s*it is bananas. B-A-N-A-N-A-S." And we suppose that Ape Escape 2 is a bit bananas, seeing as it sees you attempt to scoop up monkeys with a futuristic fishing net. The second game in the series launched on the PlayStation 4 last night as part of Sony's PS2 Classics initiative, where it will...
Video Dive Deep with 10 Minutes of ABZÛ PS4 Gameplay
Under the sea
We're never getting another Aquanaut's Holiday – more's the pity – but the beautiful ABZÛ should sate your deep sea diving appetite for the time being. The first game by Giant Squid – founded by Matt Nava of Journey and Flower fame – is a presentational tour-de-force, and it controls pretty darn nicely, too. There's some...
Wintory is coming
It's easy to take ABZÛ's swimming controls for granted. They are, after all, your only means of traversal in the game – it's natural to disregard something so close to home. But if Giant Squid's debut teaches us anything, it's that we should always take time to reflect on things which seem insignificant at first. The secret of...
News Bethesda Still Working with Sony to Get Fallout 4 Mods on PS4
It clearly isn't going smoothly
In case you hadn't noticed, mod support for Fallout 4 still hasn't arrived on Sony's system. Mods were originally intended to launch on PlayStation 4 back near the start of summer, but after hitting some sort of snag, the functionality was put on hold. However, after about a month of silence, Bethesda has revealed...
Love hurts
Heart&Slash is a very peculiar game, crossing roguelike gameplay with a brawler combat system to create an interesting idea. Set in a post-apocalyptic world where humans no longer exist and robots have taken over, you assume the role of Heart, a kind-hearted but brutally murderous machine with sword in hand, that's trying to escape...
News SEGA Wants All Numbered Yakuza Games on PS4
But no firm plans right now
Are you eager to get into the Yakuza franchise but not sure where to get started? Series creator Toshihiro Nagoshi has hinted that SEGA wants to bring all numbered entries to the PlayStation 4 following the success of the first game's remake, Yakuza Kiwami. This means that the publisher wants to find a way to port Yakuza...
News UK Sales Charts: Uncharted 4 Sales Increase 94 Per Cent
Up and at 'em
With the school holidays underway, Sony's pumped a ton more cash into Uncharted 4: A Thief's End here in the UK, widely advertising a special price promotion. The game dropped to £34.99 temporarily – though you could get it even cheaper at some stores – and that prompted a 94 per cent surge in sales. It still wasn't enough to...
News Playdead's Inside Steps Outside on PS4 This Month
In-'n'-out
Trophies for Playdead's critically acclaimed Inside leaked earlier today, suggesting that it won't be in Limbo on Sony's new-gen system for long. And now VG247 has cited trusted sources who claim that the title will release this month on the PlayStation 4. The title launched on the Xbox One in late June, but that's a win
News PS4's Interplanetary Sim No Man's Sky Won't Take Hundreds of Hours to Finish
As first person reaches the centre of the galaxy
Good news for people who lead busy lives: it won't take you hundreds of hours to reach the centre of the galaxy in No Man's Sky, as the person who purchased a pre-release copy for $1,300 achieved it in some 30 hours instead. Sean Murray had said in previous interviews that you could expect to be...
News No Man's Sky's PS4 Platinum Looks Perfectly Attainable
Space odyssey
The Trophies for PlayStation 4 console exclusive No Man's Sky have leaked online – and they look perfectly attainable, if you ask us. While the trinkets could have been laden with spoilers, they actually only reveal one thing: that your status will increase the more that you engage in various activities. For example, as you scavenge...
News Acclaimed Indie Darling Inside Poised for PS4 Release
Get in-side
Playdead's critically acclaimed Inside garnered much acclaim when it released on the Xbox One and PC earlier this year, prompting us to quiz the Danish developer about the possibility of a PlayStation 4 release. We were told that the studio wants to put the title on as many platforms as possible, and it looks like it's not hanging around...

Push Rewind August's PS Plus Games, PS4 Firmware Update, Great Indie Titles
Highs and lows
This week was dominated by two big announcements from Sony: the PlayStation Plus lineup for August and PlayStation 4 firmware update v4.00. While we're still waiting for full details on the latter, the former has caused a bit of a commotion. In brighter news, there's been no shortage of great games lately, as both Headlander and Hyper...
Talking Point Should Sony Ditch PS3, Vita Support for PlayStation Plus?
Moving on
Like it or not, the PlayStation 3 and Vita are nearing the end of their lives. That's not to say that either system is irrelevant – this author's been playing the addictive Steamworld Heist on the latter lately – but they're not in their heyday anymore. Sony knows this: it's ceased talking about the PS3 almost entirely, and while it...
Video Take a Look at Free PlayStation Plus Game Tricky Towers
Stack attack
Tricky Towers will be free on PlayStation Plus next week – but is it any good? You've read Sam Brooke's excellent review – or at least we hope you have – but if you're looking for a bit of gameplay action, the video embedded above includes both single player and multiplayer footage. And yours truly couldn't resist throwing a quick...
News Holy Trophies, Batman! Telltale's New Series Has a Platinum
No Joker
Telltale are a little erratic when it comes to Trophies; The Walking Dead: Season One had a Platinum, but its successor didn't for some reason. As such you never quite know what you're going to get from the company, but fortunately, its all-new Batman series will ship with a silvery-blue gong. You won't need to do a fat lot to collect it...
News Shenmue Sub-Director Searches for More Sailors in Shenmue III
Back on the bike
Yu Suzuki's name will forever be tied to Shenmue – it was his magnum opus, after all. But as is the case with so many projects, he had a team around him to realise his vision, and one such person was Keiji Okayasu. He served as a sub-director on the SEGA Dreamcast original, and also contributed to its sequel massively. And now...
News The Time Has Come for PlayStation VR Sizzle Trailers
Game face
We're in that weird period in the weeks leading up to a new peripheral launch where the hardware's getting manufactured, the software's getting polished up, and there's not a whole lot else to say. Just to remind you that PlayStation VR is due out on 13th October, though, Sony's produced a new sizzle trailer complete with exaggerated...
Talking Point What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 128
And relax
The one problem with WAYP is that it comes around too quickly. Your humble host took a glance at the calendar this morning and realised that it's already almost August – we'll be going Christmas shopping in the blink of an eye. Anyway, you know the drill – here's what we're playing this weekend. Sammy Barker, Editor: I've signed up...
News Deus Ex: Mankind Divided Is Done and Dusted
Augmented for launch
Hurrah! It's always good news to hear that a game's development has been polished off, and this time around, Eidos Montreal is the studio that's celebrating.

News No Man's Sky Maker Urges Fans to Avoid Spoilers as $1,300 Copy Leaks Online
Turbulent times ahead
As the release of No Man's Sky nears, Hello Games boss Sean Murray has urged fans to be vigilant and avoid spoilers. Earlier today, one rather rich gamer admitted on Reddit that he'd spent a whopping $1,300 for a pre-release copy on eBay, which he had expedited to him via FedEx today. H
Review Hyper Light Drifter (PS4)
Hyper greatness
Games are released all of the time – every week without fail, as a matter of fact. A very large percentage of these are either forgettable or downright terrible. Sure some are okay, but the real joy stems from discovering a game so good that it couldn't be called anything other than a masterpiece. Enter Heart Machine's Hyper Light...
Interview Uncovering the Soul and Giant Aspirations Behind Death’s Gambit on PS4
Go big or go die
When it comes to the deluge of indie titles that Sony promotes, it gets hard to keep track of what's going on with this side of video game releases. However, sometimes there are particular projects that simply catch our eye more than others, such as Rime or Yooka-Laylee. Death's Gambit is another fine example of this with gorgeous...
News Does PlayStation VR Require 60-Square-Feet of Space?
Space race
Reports around the web suggest that PlayStation VR won't function unless you have 60-square-feet of space to spare – but are they accurate? While we're still awaiting confirmation from Sony, we've looked at the documentation which the articles are based upon closely, and reckon that some outlets may be jumping the gun. The brochure –...
News DriveClub VR Will Send Off Evolution Studios with New Tracks, More
Developed by original team
DriveClub never made the PlayStation 4's launch as intended, but DriveClub VR will be ready in time for the release of PlayStation VR on 13th October. The date was accidentally announced on the Japanese PlayStation Blog today, but the post has since been pulled – presumably because Sony intended to reveal this...
News Destiny's Challenge of the Elders Won't Be the Same Starting Next Week
So random
Bungie's bringing a big change to Challenge of the Elders starting next week. The Destiny activity, which sees a fireteam of up to three Guardians take on an assortment of enemies while dealing with various gameplay modifiers, is being randomised from the 2nd August. In other words, the developer will no longer be setting the rules and...
Stellar
If a time traveller journeyed through time and told us that a 2D Metroidvania title would be one of the best games Double Fine ever released, we'd both scoff in disbelief and question why said time lord didn't tell us something more important, like who wins the US Election – or whether Paul Blart: Mall Cop 3 is ever made. See, on paper,...
Balls to the wall
Welcome to the future of electronic sport. Sure, Videoball may not look like a cutting edge PlayStation 4 game, with simple visuals of friendly-looking triangles (which you control) and circles (the titular videoballs themselves) – but thanks to a cunningly refined game engine and simple controls, this is pure addictive fun...
News Marvel Ultimate Alliance PS4 Isn't a Particularly Heroic Port
Doesn't improve massively upon 2006 original
Marvel Ultimate Alliance and its sequel was excreted onto the PlayStation Store this week, presumably as Activision scrambles to fulfil its contractually obliged quota of comic book-themed releases. And lo and behold, the port kinda sucks. Digital Foundry's dug out its ol' framerate ticker yet again and...
Poll Are You Happy with August's PlayStation Plus Games?
Remain calm
It's safe to say that August's PlayStation Plus reveal didn't go down too well - we haven't seen such online rage regarding Sony's service in quite some time, but is next month's offering really that bad? We're going to let you answer that one. In case you're out of the loop, August's selection includes Tetris-like block puzzler Tricky...
News Sony Profits as PS4 Sales Continue to Surge
PlayStation offsets earthquake disaster
Sony is still in the black, though it can thank PlayStation for offsetting the costs inflicted by Japan's recent earthquake disaster. Profits plunged 42 per cent year-over-year in the three month period ending 30th June, with the company racking up ¥56.2 billion ($542 million) in operating income. The...
News You'll Be Able To Catch Ape Escape 2 on PS4 Soon
Bananarama
Here's another game that has all but been confirmed to be releasing in the near future thanks to its Trophies leaking: Ape Escape 2 is coming to PlayStation 4 as part of the PS2 on PS4 program, which has recently brought the likes of Psychonauts and The Warriors to the system. Taking a look at the Trophies on Exophase, you'll be a
News Rollercoaster Dreams Is Theme Park without the Charm
Wheee
An amusement park management sim for the PlayStation 4 and PlayStation VR? It should be a match made in heaven – but Bimboosoft's in-development Rollercoaster Dreams definitely has a ways to go. The title – which is clearly targeting the Theme Park market – seems to have all of the pieces in place, but lacks the charm of Bullfrog's...
Full moon
Kitfox Games has created something quite unique with Moon Hunters. At first it appears to be quite a standard action role-playing game with the option to play with up to four players. However, playing the game for just a couple minutes shows you that there are plenty of unique and fresh ideas on display. The most obvious idea on display...
News Four Years Later and Blizzard Is Still Working on Updates for Diablo III
A new patch is incoming
Blizzard's currently working on yet another update for Diablo III, which is set to launch in the relatively near future. Patch 2.4.2 will introduce three new difficulty levels - namely Torment XI, XII, and XIII - and naturally, you'll be able to nab better and better loot as long as you're strong enough to tackle them. The...
News Burnout Makers Begin Work on New Racing Game
Burn rubber
Three Fields Entertainment recently released Dangerous Golf, a kind of twist on Burnout's very popular Crash mode. But while the title offered a nice warm-up for the UK-based studio, we've all been waiting for it to begin work on a racing title really. Fortunately, the outfit announced yesterday that work has begun on a "driving game"...
News Corn, Blimey! Catch a Glimpse of Farming Simulator 17 PS4 Gameplay
Hay maker
Farming equipment is genuinely bad ass, as this Farming Simulator 17 gameplay trailer should demonstrate. It shows a lady farmer tending to one of her plots, using various pieces of licensed equipment to plough, sow, fertilise, and harvest some crops. This is a simple growth cycle – but look at that New Holland self-propelled sprayer...
Feature Here's What You Do in No Man's Sky on PS4
Guide to the galaxy
If life's most common question is "Why would anyone support Liverpool?" then "What do you actually do in No Man's Sky?" must be a pretty close second. A query that's got more mileage than your uncle's fudged Ford Focus, it's been adopted by both fans and haters alike. Perhaps recognising that Hello Games hasn't done an especially...
News Destiny: The Collection Is Supposedly Coming to PS4 in August
One month before Rise of Iron
With big expansion Rise of Iron out in September, we were betting on Activision releasing a new all-in-one Destiny package, much like it did when The Taken King launched last year, but as it turns out, the publisher may have other plans. Indeed, Destiny: The Collection has been spotted on Amazon, and it's supposedly...
News Dragon Ball XenoVerse 2 Has Giant Namekians
Big green
Good news if you're planning on playing as a Namekian in Dragon Ball XenoVerse 2, as it looks like the fighter's going to feature giant transformations. The title's latest gameplay trailer shows off a load of fresh footage, and if you watch closely enough, you'll be able to pick out a custom Namekian character ballooning in size before...
News Ninja Theory's Really Innovating with Hellblade on PS4
Real-time cinematography will blow your mind
Ninja Theory, much like Naughty Dog and Quantic Dream, has always been at the forefront of motion capture – but some of the stuff that it's doing with Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice is frankly insane. In this video detailing its Siggraph 2016 award-winning real-time cinematography technique, it...
News Oh No! Darksiders' PS4 Remaster Has the Worst Subtitle in History
Gamers can't believe this crazy name
Darksiders II: Deathinitive Edition was a terrible name, but we could appreciate the attempt at wordplay. Darksiders: Warmastered Edition is just plain terrible – though we have the sneaking suspicion that someone at Nordic Games is having a laugh. Warmastered Edition – seriously? C'mon! The game was...
News Free Suicide Squad Theme Raids the PS4
No Joker
Those of you eagerly anticipating the release of Suicide Squad next week may want to download the free theme that's available on the European PlayStation Store right now – and will presumably roll out imminently worldwide. It's a dynamic theme which fuses comic book panels with photographs of the flick's cast. While any theme featuring...
News RIME Is Still in Development, More News Coming at Gamescom
Studio has also expanded
The last time we heard from Tequila Works' RIME, things weren't looking up. Sony cut their ties with the game earlier this year after the developer re-acquired the rights to the IP, which threw the question of the title actually releasing into even further mystery. Backed up by the fact that we hadn't seen anything since its...
News People Really Aren't Happy with August's PlayStation Plus Games
Remember to turn caps lock on
PlayStation Plus announcement day is always good for a laugh, but we doubt that anyone who has to handle Sony's social media accounts is smiling right now. Following today's Plus reveal - you can see the full list of August's games through here - PlayStation fans have grabbed their pitchforks and taken a good old stab...
News Are You Cereal? Life Is Strange Is Getting a Live-Action Series
No emoji
For as much as we adore Life Is Strange, the episodic adventure had some hella cringe writing. That said, the title's angst-driven drama makes it a perfect fit for a live-action adaptation – and that's exactly what Square Enix, Dontnod, and Legendary Digital Studios have announced. The latter is no stranger to video game conversions,...
News Your Free PlayStation Plus Games for August Have Been Revealed
Rebel Galaxy, Tricky Towers headline PS4
Sony has just announced the games coming to PlayStation Plus next month, with the space-based Rebel Galaxy and physics-based puzzler Tricky Towers leading the charge on the PlayStation 4. You can check out our review for Tricky Towers here. PlayStation 3 users can also look forward to Yakuza 5 and...
All along the botched tower
Good couch multiplayer games are in vogue on the PlayStation 4, which means more tantrum throwing, "accidental" elbow incidents, and debates over who gets the "good" controller than ever before. Tricky Towers, a physics-based tower-builder in which up to four players can compete both offline and online, may not be a...
News Metal Gear Solid V: Definitive Ex Emerges on Amazon
We need intel
What do we have here then, Boss? Metal Gear Solid V: Definitive Ex has popped up on Amazon.co.uk, which, we assume, is some sort of Game of the Year edition. There's no information to be gleaned from the listing whatsoever, other than it's a product from Konami. So, what would a definitive edition of Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom...
News Yakuza 0 Parties Exclusively on PS4 from 24th January
Acceptable in the eighties
If confirmation of Yakuza 6's release date in Japan has left you battling the green-eyed monster, then we come with good news: Yakuza 0, the series' 80s spin-off, will deploy on 24th January exclusively on the PlayStation 4 in North America and Europe. Just so we're clear, that's not a pager vibrating in your pocket –...
Talking Point What PS4 Firmware Update 4.0 Features Do You Want?
Folders? PSone Classics? External HDD support?
Sony sprung the smallest slither of PlayStation 4 firmware update v4.00 news this week, confirming that a beta for the big update will commence next month – but stopping short of announcing any features. It's been quite a while since we last got a major system software refresh for the Japanese giant's...

Survival of the fittest
With so many variables at its core, you're bound to stumble across trouble in No Man's Sky at some point.

And what do you know, the title's latest trailer...
News Japanese Sales Charts: The PS4 Software Drought Continues
At least a new Vita game's in the top 20
We're starting to feel bad about asking you lot to give these Japanese charts articles a click - there's just nothing particularly interesting happening in the Land of the Rising Sun when it comes to Sony's systems, and it's probably going to stay that way until the PlayStation 4 gets a few new blockbusters...
Review Fallout 4: Vault-Tec Workshop (PS4)
Digging not-so deep
Fallout 4's penultimate slice of downloadable content comes in the form of the Vault-Tec Workshop - another settlement-based add-on in which you follow a series of short, simple quests while building your own underground vault. This certainly isn't your typically large expansion - as you can probably tell from the price tag - but...
News PS4 Sizzles This Summer with Hot EU PlayStation Store Deals
Lots of low prices
Sony's been doing pretty well with PlayStation Store discounts this year, and this four week European Summer Sale is decent. It spans all three PlayStation platforms, of course, but it's the PlayStation 4 offers that you'll probably be most interested in – and FIFA 16 at £15.99, Bloodborne at £19.99, and Mortal Kombat X at...
