News Don't Expect Dragon Quest XI on PS4 Until Late 2017
Here in the West, at least
All that we've seen of Dragon Quest XI so far is a nice looking tech demo, and for that reason, we've always assumed that the finished product is a long way off. It comes as no surprise, then, that Square Enix has put a tentative May 2017 launch window on the game - and that's only for Japan. The publisher is actually...
News PS4 Firmware Update 3.15 Is Available Now
But what does it do?
It's PlayStation 4 firmware update time, so prepare your bandwidth and brace yourself for bitter disappointment: more system stability awaits. The console's latest upgrade – dubbed v3.15 for those keeping count – doesn't make any noticeable changes to Sony's device, but it weighs in at just 275.5MB, so at least you'll be...

Soapbox Why I Don't Hate The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt Anymore
Bitchin' witchin'
I stopped playing The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt on 6th June, swore off it for life, told colleague Robert Ramsey that he'd Made_A_Huge_Mistake.gif awarding it a 10/10, and spent the following six months ridiculing everyone for liking a game in which following a floating foetus is widely regarded as its best bit. I was wrong. Y'see,...

Store Update 12th January 2016 (Europe)
Where's Gone Home?
Seeing as Majesco's done a Jennifer Lawrence and decided to stop responding to our emails, we were looking forward to waking up, buying Gone Home, and bringing you a review later today. Unfortunately, SCEE's rained on our parade as the game won't be joining its North American counterpart in the PlayStation Store's abode today...
News PS2 Platformer Psychonauts Levitates onto PS4 This Spring
Raz more like it
Psychonauts was what you'd call a cult classic back on the PlayStation 2 - and it's now on course for a PlayStation 4 release in the relatively near future. As with the other last-last-gen titles that Sony's been allowing onto its newest console, we assume that it'll feature trophy support, and will more than likely boast enhanced...
News Not a Hero Finally Slides onto PS4 from 2nd February
OlliOlli devs roll in
OlliOlli maker Roll7's been working on Not a Hero since skateboarding was cool, so it's nice to see the side-scrolling Vanquish finally get a PlayStation 4 release date. The title will deploy on 2nd February, where an anthropomorphic rabbit – yeah, we're not so keen on that bit – will task you with cleansing the world of...
News Dead or Alive Xtreme 3 Packs Up Its Swimsuit Until 24th March
Put on ice
Koei Tecmo seemingly needs just a little more time to touch up Dead or Alive Xtreme 3's tan lines, as the summer holiday simulator has been delayed on the PlayStation 4 and Vita from 25th February to 24th March in Japan. Remember, there's no Western release date confirmed just yet as the publisher has stressed that it feels the game is...

News Medieval Mutilator For Honor Will Have a Single Player Mode
Solo slaughter
Oh, right – we'd almost forgotten about Ubisoft's four-versus-four hack-a-thon For Honor. But, speaking as part of a new recap video designed to remind us that the title's coming to the PlayStation 4, producer Stephane Cardin stresses that the release won't solely offer multiplayer, as there'll be a single player campaign for those...

News Destiny's Nightfall Strike Is a Never-Ending Nightmare Right Now
Bungie's working on a fix
This week's Nightfall Strike in Destiny appears to be buggered, as players can't seem to get past a certain point in the activity. The Strike in question is the Sunless Cell - you know, where you fight that big sword git in the dark - but a bug is preventing Guardians from getting anywhere the rather cool boss fight...
News Street Fighter V Scores Console Exclusive Box Branding
It is known
Console makers love to make it known when a game is exclusive to their system, but the 'Only on PlayStation' branding that Sony usually employs doesn't suit every single piece of software. Street Fighter V is an example of a release that will never deploy on the Xbox One, but it is coming to the PC, so it's technically available...
The banter saga
Finally setting foot on consoles after a long and probably cold wait is The Banner Saga – an addictive, intricate role-playing experience that's set in a world with a dead sun. Hulking giants known as varl exist alongside humans, and old, almost demonic foes are threatening the peace that both races have worked hard to establish...
News See What Arslan: The Warriors of Legend Is All About with Tomorrow's PS4 Demo
Chaaarge
Let's cut right to the reality of the situation: Arslan: The Warriors of Legend is a game that's undoubtedly going to slip under the radar. A Warriors title that's based on a modern recreation of a classic manga and anime series that was never a big deal here in the West, it's almost destined for obscurity - but for those of you who are...
News The Witcher 3 PS4 Patch 1.12 Is Out Now
It's fixing time
Hey, it's been quite a while since we've done one of these, eh? There's a brand new update out for The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt on PlayStation 4, which weighs in at about 1.5GB. Good job there's a decimal point in there. Truth be told, there's no reason to get really excited for this one - patch 1.12 is stuffed with specific fixes and...

European date finally confirmed
Stitch up your sides and prepare yourself for a rib splitting adventure, as Sony has finally announced that Ratchet & Clank will release on 20th April in Europe – a little while after its pre-confirmed 12th April launch in North America. For some reason, France will get it on 15th April – we assume purely to...
News Arc the Lad: Twilight of the Spirits Graduates to PS4 This Week
Lads! Lads! Lads! Lads!
Arc the Lad doesn't have an enormous amount of brand cachet in Europe as SCEE infamously only brought one instalment overseas. That entry was PlayStation 2 debut Arc the Lad: Twilight of the Sprits, which was needlessly renamed Arc: Twilight of the Spirits because that's what European companies used to do
Rumour Shadow of the Beast Holds Back the Blood as PS4 Exclusive Is Delayed

One title that we've quietly been looking forward to for quite a while now is Shadow of the Beast, which was supposed to be launching near the end of this month, on the 27th January – but according to the PlayStation Store, as spotted by VideoGamer, the hack and slasher has been delayed until the 2nd March. Of course, there's been no...
News UK Sales Charts: Best Sellers, Best Sellers Never Change
Zzz
Nothing to see here, folks. The UK sales charts have barely changed for nearing a month now, and that remains true this week, with Call of Duty: Black Ops III on top yet again. FIFA 16 managed to bump Star Wars Battlefront down into third, while Grand Theft Auto V overtook Fallout 4 in fourth. The only real surprise this time is that Battlefield...

Weirdness Police Arrest Man Who Urinated on Video Games
In a wee bit of trouble
If you've got to go, for God's sake don't relieve your bladder all over a bunch of video games.

The incident took place on 5th January in Pennsylvania, and police have since brought the chap in for questioning...
Review Assassin's Creed Chronicles: India (PS4)
We can't think of a pun(jab)
The Assassin's Creed series – hell, Ubisoft's entire portfolio – has been getting a lot of flak lately due to the samey nature of each instalment. The expected announcement of Watch Dogs 2 seemed to excite no one, and it seems like no one really cares about the Assassin's Creed movie that's coming out this very year...
Push Rewind PSN Downtime, PlayStation VR Price Points, and Mass Effect Hints
Back to work we go
It's the first week back in the office, but it's been an absolutely huge few days here at Push Square Towers.

Talking Point What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 100
Triple digits
We've only gone and reached our 100th edition of WAYP – an occasion that would be worth marking if this author hadn't got in a muddle and assumed that this week's instalment was actually Issue 99. Whoops. Oh well, at least we've got a bumper article this week for you, with virtually every Push Square team member turning out in force...
It rules
Rogue-like dungeon crawlers are becoming increasingly popular with each new game that releases in the genre. The indie sector is doing particularly well in this department, with the likes of The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth and Rogue Legacy being two well-received titles to launch on the PlayStation 4 and Vita. So, with the release of a new...

News PS4 Owners Have Terribad Music Taste
Obvs
It takes a brave company to ditch its own service and replace it with a competitor's, but Sony's been daring virtually all generation. We all knew that binning Qriocity – or whatever it was called – in favour of Spotify was a darn good idea, but corporations can be proud entities, and we doubt that many of you would have bet on the Japanese...
News Your PS4 May Be DOOMed This Summer
Possible release date leaked
DOOM has had some decent hype behind it ever since it made its gameplay debut back at Bethesda's E3 2015 press conference, but things have been a little quiet over the last few months with regards to the shooter in general. Indeed, one thing that we're still missing is confirmed release date, but thanks to a possible...
News PlayStation VR Will Cost You at Least $400 Says Research Group
Place your bets
We're not exactly sure what the sweet spot is for PlayStation VR's yet-to-be-announced price point, but we do think that Sony will probably want to go with something lower than the Oculus Rift's recently revealed $599 tag. With that in mind, it perhaps comes as no real shock that research group SuperData predicts that the PS4 headset...
News Far Cry Primal Looks Anything But Prehistoric in PS4 Gameplay
Primal carnage
Ubisoft tends to rattle these open world games out like they're in danger of becoming unfashionable, but Far Cry Primal certainly doesn't look rushed in this hour or so of PlayStation 4 gameplay footage. In the video, key personnel from the development team outline some of the main mechanics from the Stone Age spin-off, and it all...
Sweet goof
Hardware: Rivals shares few similarities with Rocket League, but somewhere in the build-up to its uneventful release, someone deemed it unlawful to mention Sony's unneeded car combat reboot without tacking a reference to Psyonix's soccer smash on the bumper. That opening sentence is Exhibit A. The resemblances that it does share are...
Review Minecraft: Story Mode – Episode 4: A Block and A Hard Place (PS4)
A fitting end, but not really
Telltale's fourth Minecraft release over the course of just a few months continues the breakneck launch schedule that the developer has suddenly become fond of. We've been weary of this rapid schedule from day one because it's in such stark contrast to their normally overly long, drawn out release time frame - and this...

Stoking the flames
Dragon's Dogma is an often overlooked open world role-playing release from Capcom, which released on the PlayStation 3 back in 2012.

The open world dilemma
Upcoming PlayStation 4 exclusive Horizon: Zero Dawn is building up to be an ambitious undertaking for first-party studio Guerrilla Games.

News PS4 Sells Over 1 Million Units in Japan in 2015
Could be worse
Okay, okay, we get that the Japanese console market is in decline - we just posted a story about it, in fact - but Sony will at least feel that something positive has been achieved with the PlayStation 4 in 2015.

But will they be any good?
The year of virtual reality is already starting to ramp up, and it's a top source of discussion for Sony gaffer Kaz Hirai at CES 2016 this week.

News Japan's Console Market Wasn't Too Hot in 2015
Lowest figures in 26 years
We all know at this point that Japan's console market has shrunk. We could go on and on about the factors that have lead to such a decline, but let's just cut straight to the chase: 2015 saw the market hit a 26 year low. What this means is that the overall value of the market continued to fall, with it being worth ¥321...
Review Trine 3: The Artifacts of Power (PS4)
Third time's not a charm
To start on a personal anecdote, this particular editor had the pleasure of playing Trine 2: Complete Story for his first review at Push Square two years ago, and much to our surprise, we were delighted that it was a magical indie title that boasted some of the greatest visuals we'd seen with phenomenal puzzles and...
Reaction Oculus Rift's $599 Price Is Positive News for PlayStation VR
Five hundred and ninety-nine US dollars
We suspect that there may be a few smiles at Sony HQ today as the game of chicken regarding virtual reality pricing has finally come to an abrupt end. It's felt for a while like each of the major VR manufacturers have been waiting for each other to make the first move, and Oculus has faced the unenviable task...

Who's up for some more Yu-Gi-Oh!, then? Konami's announced that a new duel monsters based video game will be launching worldwide near the end of 2016, but there aren't really any concrete details to go on just yet. The working title for the PlayStation 4 release is Yu-Gi-Oh! Online Game, which obviously suggests that it'll have a...

That'd be Tekken the p*ss
In case you haven't heard, Akuma is going to be in Tekken 7.

Apparently not, according to senior game designer Michael Murray. In an interview...
News Mass Effect: Andromeda Is in a Playable Form Right Now
Still on target for late 2016
We'll be the first to admit that this isn't a huge slice of news - especially when it originates from a series of BioWare employee tweets - but it would appear that Mass Effect: Andromeda is now playable, at least to some degree. In other words, the game's development cycle is supposedly going smoothly. "Just finished...

Ain't no stopping this train
Holy best seller, Batman – the PlayStation 4 has now sold 35.9 million units worldwide.

Sigh. The Push Square office has been a hotbed of communication over the past 24 hours as we consider whether to cover this PlayStation 4 hack or not.
