Dentists tell you not to indulge in too many delicacies, but when Hyper Light Drifter and Headlander are on the menu, you'd be a fool to look the other way.

Cool
PlayStation 2 classic Fahrenheit – known as Indigo Prophecy in North America – was supposed to be out on the PlayStation 4 by now, but it hit a last-minute hitch.

News Peel Back the Layers of Fear with Inheritance DLC
Child's slay
We liked psychological walking sim Layers of Fear, so we're up for a few more hours poking around the protagonist's painterly house from the viewpoint of his daughter. Perspective was the key theme in this game, so it should be interesting to see how the eyes of a child twist and contort things even more. The expansion's out on 2nd...
News PS4 Sequel Yakuza 6 Rips Off Its Shirt on 8th December in Japan
Feel the Heat

News Fallout 4 Vault-Tec Workshop Is Missing on PS4 in Europe, Bethesda's Investigating
Going underground
As with previous additional content for Fallout 4, the Vault-Tec Workshop was supposed to launch at midnight on PlayStation 4 here in Europe, but that apparently hasn't been the case. It's now the early hours of the morning here in the UK - at the time of writing - and as far as we can tell, there's still no sign of the add-on...
News Promising Kickstarter Prey for the Gods Confirms PS4 Version
No stretch goals
Prey for the Gods, the Shadow of the Colossus-inspired indie from No Matter Studios, had no hope of meeting its $600,000 console stretch goal on Kickstarter – and this was putting potential backers off. The studio had originally intended to outsource the PlayStation 4 version, but seeing the way that its campaign was progressing,...
News Now You Can Play Super Nintendo Games with a PS4 Controller
Playing with power
We've always thought that the Super Nintendo's controller was one of the industry's better ones, but if you don't fancy using the iconic pad, then why not switch to the DualShock 4 instead? Not content with creating a NES wireless receiver, peripheral makers Analogue and 8BitDo have now joined forces on a SNES one, too. Obviously...

Weirdness Beardy Ryu Is Now Officially Hot Ryu in Street Fighter V, According to Capcom
You had me at Hadoken
Bearded Ryu, previously known as Battle Costume Ryu, apparently, is now officially called Hot Ryu, according to Capcom.

Roll the dice
A massively multiplayer online game based on the fiction of Dungeons & Dragons, Neverwinter is out now on PlayStation 4 - and it's totally free to download and play.

Crofty
Square Enix will debut the PlayStation 4 version of Rise of the Tomb Raider at Gamescom next month, where German convention attendees will get to go hands-on with Lara Croft's latest on Sony's new-gen system. The packed port's headlining a pretty stacked show for the Japanese publisher, with Final Fantasy XV, Dragon Quest Builders, Final...
News Here's Your First Look at Dead Rising on PS4
Alive and kicking
The original Dead Rising's never released on a PlayStation platform – despite it proving popular on the Xbox 360, and even receiving a paired back Nintendo Wii port. However, publisher Capcom recently confirmed that it's bringing the 2006 undead-'em-up to Sony's new-gen system – and here's your first look at some promo shots...
News Horizon: Zero Dawn's Collector's Edition Statue Looks Tasty
Aloy-oy
There wasn't a massive amount at this year's San Diego Comic-Con to entertain PlayStation 4 fans, but IGN did shoot a quick video with this tasty looking Aloy statue inspired by Horizon: Zero Dawn. This is, of course, the model that you get with the Collector's Edition of the game, which can be pre-ordered for around £104.99/$119.99. In...
News Darksiders Will Trot to the PS4 This Year, Apparently
War never changes

According to the publication, the port was announced by Nordic Games at Gamepolis 2016 in Malaga this weekend. The European publisher purchased the rights to the...
News UK Sales Charts: There's Very Little to See Here
As you were
There's very little to talk about in this week's UK sales charts, we're afraid; LEGO Star Wars: The Force Awakens topped the best sellers list for a fourth consecutive week – the fourth is clearly with it. Elsewhere, the top ten is packed with typical titles, like FIFA 16, Overwatch, and Grand Theft Auto V. Uncharted 4: A Thief's End...
Push Rewind Rise of the Tomb Raider, Sonic Mania, 20 Best Games on PS4
Normal service resumed
After over a month of E3 2016 hangover, the industry finally decided to pick itself back up and get to work this week, with an absolute ton of news breaking over the past seven days. The biggest headline perhaps pertained to Rise of the Tomb Raider's PlayStation 4 version, but equally exciting was confirmation that Gravity...
Review Carmageddon: Max Damage (PS4)
Max boredom
Lock up your children and ready your moral outrage as Camageddon is back, bringing with it a not so healthy dose of 90s vehicular mayhem. With original developer Stainless Games once again behind the wheel of the franchise that helped make its name, the biggest question that comes to mind is that now we're close to 20 years down the road...
News Oh Right, Sonic the Hedgehog's Spin-Dashing LEGO Dimensions
Put a ring on it
Considerably less exciting than the upcoming Sonic Mania, it's been confirmed after months of rumours and teasing that Sonic the Hedgehog will be joining the roster of Warner Bros' increasingly weird licensed love-in, LEGO Dimensions. The blue blur will be available as part of a level pack which will allow you to speed through some...
News Dead Rising's PS4 Remasters May Ravage You in September
The best of West
We already know that three Dead Rising games are set to rot the PlayStation 4 in the near future, but an Xbox Store listing may have dated the last-gen titles for September. Trophies for the original game in Capcom's undead series leaked earlier in the month, of course, but the publisher then confirmed that it would be joined by...
News Kojima Productions' Logo Now Has Action Figures As Well
Of course
If you thought that the so-called "logo movie" was self-indulgent, then get a load of this: Ludens, the skeletal space-explorer said to represent Kojima Productions' "frontier spirit", is getting a slew of action figures. A reminder: this character has nothing to do with Death Stranding or any other game – it's lit
News Fallout 4's Vault-Tec Workshop DLC Augments New Quests Next Week
Synth-ly the best
Fallout 4's newest add-on pack Vault-Tec Workshop will arrive next week and will bring with it new quests for you to complete.

You'll be able to buy them individually or as part of a bundle, with Activision promising that the remasters will include performance improvements, as well as user interface and...
News Me Grimlock May Replay Transformers: Fall of Cybertron on PS4
He's no bozo
Once upon a time, before High Moon Studios was relegated to Call of Duty map pack purgatory, Activision gave the developer both the budget and the resources to create a couple of decent Transformers games – Fall of Cybertron being the better of the two. And the PlayStation 3 sequel appears to be coming to the PlayStation 4 imminently,...
News Kojima Productions' Logo Movie Is As Self-Indulgent As You'd Expect
The definition of decadent
Haha, we absolutely love this. Appearing at the San Diego Comic-Con over the weekend, Hideo Kojima revealed the "logo movie" for his new studio Kojima Productions, which will presumably be displayed when you boot up Death Stranding. The clip – embedded below – is just about as ostentatious as you can possibly imagine,...
News Sonic Mania Is the PS4 Sequel You've Spent Your Adult Life Yearning For
Spin master
After the godawful Sonic the Hedgehog 4, it looks like SEGA has finally figured out a way of making a 2D Sonic title befitting of the Blue Blur's legacy. Due out on the PlayStation 4 next year, Sonic Mania looks like it's fallen straight out of the mid-90s, with "happening" electro tunes and some "lit" sprite work. GameSpot's stumbled...
Talking Point What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 127
Feelin' hot, hot, hot

News Sonic Sprints onto PS4 in Two New Games
SEEEGAAAAA
The blue blur has been MIA on PlayStation platforms since 2011's Sonic Generations – or, if we're counting spin-offs, Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed in 2012. Over the last 14 years, SEGA has been working closely with Nintendo to bring exclusive Sonic games to their consoles, including Sonic Lost World, Mario & Sonic at the...

DC Comics dust-up
San Diego Comic-Con is on right now, and as is an annual tradition, plenty of new characters are being announced for fighting games.

News No Man's Sky's Trade PS4 Trailer Will Fuel Your Hype
Trade up
Sony's continuing its Guide to the Galaxy video series by spotlighting how trading will work in No Man's Sky. This brand new clip shows how you'll travel to different planets in order to collect resources, and then exchange these goods with nearby traders in order to unlock better weapons and ship parts. It's a simple loop, but should prove...
Talking Point What August PlayStation Plus Games Do You Want?
Take your pick
The summer months are melting away faster than our internal organs in the current UK heatwave, and that means that it's already time to start thinking about August's free PlayStation Plus games. July saw the addition of new release Furi and comical classic Saints Row: Gat Out of Hell on the PlayStation 4, capping a decent spell for...
News 'The Future Is Bright' for Destiny, Says Bungie
Studio teases big things to come
It's been a couple of weeks since we last wrote about Destiny, which has got to be some sort of record, right? All's been quiet on the sci-fi shooter's front, as most fans are waiting patiently for September's Rise of Iron expansion, but that hasn't stopped developer Bungie from hyping up "the future" of the game...

You'll need to...
News Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare PS4 Gameplay Keeps Its Boots on the Ground
My God! It's full of stars
Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare may have felt the full wrath of YouTube's deadly dislike button, but we're really starting to like the look of this game. Activision has uploaded the first ten or so minutes of Infinity Ward's new first-person shooter online, which opens with a ground-based battle, before blasting off into...
Micro machines
Obliteracers is a cute, party-focused kart racing game with a medley of different playful weapons to pick-up and a selection of unorthodox looking characters to choose from. Sound familiar? Well, that's because it's a genre that has been well-and-truly mastered elsewhere, although it's also one that's surprisingly sparse on...
Review Gal*Gun: Double Peace (PS4)
Between a rod and a hard place
The last time we strutted through a school targeting ladies with our love shots, Interpol got involved. In fact, we're not sure whether penning this review is a violation of our parole conditions – we try not to let legal proceedings get in the way of our quest to bring you the best PlayStation coverage available,...
News Jury's Out on Juri in Street Fighter V on PS4 Next Week

Street Fighter V's next update will see the catsuit clad S.I.N. agent Juri join the roster of the PlayStation 4 exclusive game – and it's due 26th July, so you haven't got long to wait.

He beat Chelsea's Eden Hazard, Real Madrid's James Rodriguez, and Manchester United's Anthony Martial to the punch. Is...
News Square Enix Is Selling Japanese Voices for World of Final Fantasy as Special Edition DLC
Really?
World of Final Fantasy is getting a reasonably robust collector's edition on PlayStation 4.

Also included is a slew of bonus in-game content, including a Sephiroth summon,...
News World of Final Fantasy May Be a Spin-Off, But It Definitely Shouldn't Be Ignored
Step aside, Noctis
The more that we see of World of Final Fantasy, the more we begin to think that this cutesy little role-playing release could be one of the property's best products in quite some time. With the game due out near the end of October, it's no surprise that it's currently being overshadowed by Final Fantasy XV, but we'd urge you to at...
News Toukiden 2's Opening Movie Will Get You in the Mood for Some Demon Slaying
The bigger they are
Koei Tecmo's revealed Toukiden 2's opening CG movie, and it's pretty much exactly what you'd expect. A non-specific main character teams up with the sequel's refreshed cast and they hack a giant Oni to bits in stylish fashion. Hey, at least the video's being true to the game. Still, it's worth a watch if you're looking to inject...
News Final Fantasy XV Has Dialogue Options
Blah blah blah
Dialogue options are talking their way into Final Fantasy XV - is there anything that this game doesn't have? As Noctis, you'll be able to choose how he responds during specific conversations both within and outside of the main story. Your choice will, unsurprisingly, alter how things play out, although we doubt that they'll ever have...
News Bloody Nora, Gravity Rush 2 Looks Superb on PS4
Meow
Phwoar! Gravity Rush 2 releases later this year, and is almost guaranteed to be one of 2016's sleeper hits. Sony showed off some new gameplay footage at a presentation in Japan this week, and it's found its way online. While this has all been captured off-screen in pretty low-quality, it demonstrates just how diverse the game's environmental...
News System Shock Hacks into the PS4 Following Fan Demand
No shock
You may have read elsewhere that a System Shock remake is in the works. The game, in development at Nightdive Studios, took to Kickstarter some three weeks ago – without a PlayStation 4 version on the cards. It's since accrued over $1 million in crowd funding and has passed its target, but many refused to fund it until a version for...
Cyberpunk'd
Dex is an open world, side scrolling, action RPG that takes place in a far future Cyberpunk setting, and appears to have taken some inspiration from classic Metroid and Castlevania games. This combination seems like a gamer's dream come true, however developer Dreadlocks seem to have neglected including enjoyable gameplay, instead...

We usually give you the hot takes on all the happenings of the last fortnight, but considering the Mordor-esque...
News Rocket League's PS4-Xbox One Cross-Network Play Is Ready to Go
But the ball's still in Sony's court
Oh right, we'd forgotten about this. Those of you with really long memories will recall Microsoft suddenly changing its policy regarding cross-network play a few months back, putting Sony on the spot by suggesting that it wants Xbox One and PlayStation 4 players to play together. We're sure that the current...
Space oddity
In this reviewer's opinion, space disaster is one of the most interesting concepts in entertainment. You have the likes of Gravity, Apollo 18, and The Martian in film, Seveneves in literature, and Alien Isolation in games. Adr1ft, the debut game from developer Three One Zero, now joins the party following its PlayStation 4 release...
News OMG! Pac-Man Championship Edition 2 Is Coming to PS4
Pop a power pill
Pac-Man Championship Edition was a masterpiece. For those that didn't play it, it took the basic rules of Pac-Man, and reformed them into a headache-inducing mess of happy hardcore and bright lights. And now the series is making a comeback on the PlayStation 4 – and bringing even more madness with it. The sequel – which is due...
News The Final Fantasy XV Movie Has Done Pretty Well in Japan So Far
It's had a positive reception, too
Kingsglaive: Final Fantasy XV is a big investment for Square Enix; the movie is tied directly to the upcoming role-playing game, and features some stunning visuals as well as an expensive English voice cast. Fortunately, for the publisher, the flick seems to be off to a decent start in Japan. It's grossed...
News You Must Try Life Is Strange on PS4, PS3 Now It's Free
It's hella good
It's hard to imagine a game in the past couple of decades that's more suited to this author's tastes than Life Is Strange. DONTNOD's decidedly divisive episodic adventure is like a John Green novel in gaming form, pairing the teenage mystery of Paper Towns with the heartbreaking plot threads of The Fault in Our Stars. If you're a fan...
News Dragon Quest Builders Hammers Home a Confirmed Released Date on PS4
Another exclusive for Sony's console
Colourful and cheery craft-'em-up Dragon Quest Builders was confirmed for a Western release not too long ago on PlayStation 4, and now Square Enix has wheeled out some more specific launch dates.

Square Enix targeting 1080p, 30 frames-per-second
Following yesterday's not-so surprise news, Square Enix has released a trailer for Rise of the Tomb Raider on the PlayStation 4 – but you'll need to sit through a few minutes of nostalgia before you get to it. The embedded video looks back at 20 years
Video We've Found PS4's Dumbest Game to Date
Kiss and swell
Gal*Gun: Double Peace won't win many awards – but it'll probably be crowned PlayStation 4's dumbest game when the generation is done and dusted. This rails shooter by Inti Creates won't get you on the sex register – but it probably should. A kind of Time Crisis for people who can't keep their trousers on, the idea here is that...
Hands On Is King of Fighters XIV on PS4 Worthy of Its Royal Title?
Return of the king
Some of us here at Push Square are looking forward to King of Fighters XIV. Honest.

But first, let's...

News Capcom Is Trying to Make Street Fighter V Less Mind-Numbingly Tedious
A different kind of grind
Let's not dance around the issue here: Street Fighter V's survival mode is crap. Single round matches against up to 50 opponents in a row, always in the same order. And if you lose, you have to start over from scratch. If you win, however, you get a lovely new colour for your chosen character. No pain no gain, etc. Players...

Headlander! ABZÛ! Brut@l! Bound!
As teased recently, the PlayStation Store PLAY 2016 lineup has been revealed, spotlighting four forthcoming PlayStation 4 digital games. The lineup this year is a little smaller, but it's no less exciting, with Headlander, ABZÛ, Brut@l, and Bound all taking top billing. We think the theme this year is gimmicky...

News Mafia III's Main Character Is a Man on a Mission
Mob justice
From what we've seen of Mafia III so far, we're reasonably excited for the upcoming open world mob-'em-up, and while we have some reservations when it comes to the sequel's rather standard looking gameplay, we reckon that the setting and characters seem pretty interesting. Speaking of which, protagonist and Vietnam veteran Lincoln Clay...
News Samurai Action RPG Nioh Makes a Return to PS4 for a Limited Time Next Month
Reforged
Back near the end of April, Koei Tecmo released a playable demo for Nioh on PlayStation 4, and the whole thing ended up generating a good amount of hype for the samurai styled action title.
