News Evidence Continues to Pile Up For a New Mafia Game on PS4
We'll make you an offer
There must be a few mobsters over at Take Two with plenty of secrets in the trunk of their car right now, because the evidence of a new Mafia game continues to pile up. Back in May, the publisher confirmed that it's got a AAA-title in the works, and before that, voice actor Rick Pasqualone - who played the main character in...
News UK Sales Charts: Batman: Arkham Knight Swoops in as the Biggest Launch of 2015 So Far
The Bat is back
Warner Bros must be making an absolute killing these days. The publisher seems to pump out hit after hit, with Dying Light and Mortal Kombat X both reaching the top of the UK sales charts in recent times. And, perhaps as expected, that success has continued with Batman: Arkham Knight, which has swooped into first place. The caped...

Life is just a fantasy
Looking to escape the realms of reality this Sunday? If so, then you'd better check out the PlayStation Network's latest North American flash sale, which ends tomorrow.

News Watch the Full Mind Blowing Uncharted 4 E3 2015 Demo Next Week
Oh crap
Remember how amazing Uncharted 4: A Thief's End looked during Sony's press conference at E3 2015? Well, the press were treated to an extended demo that, in all honesty, prompted some minds to erupt. Many had pondered how the Japanese giant could possibly keep such a jaw-dropping demo under wraps – and the good news is that developer...
News Yu Suzuki Wants Physical Shenmue III PS4 Discs
Where is the mirror?
Shenmue III could yet get a Blu-ray release on the PlayStation 4, as Yu Suzuki explained during a Twitch livestream overnight that he's eager to make it happen. The veteran developer told fans that he's currently considering ways to get the disc produced, and pleaded patience while he figures out the final details. We reckon...
News Battlefield Hardline's PS4 Ultimate Edition Won't Let You Access DLC
Game over, man
According to a number of reports, the rather pricey Battlefield Hardline Ultimate Edition for PlayStation 4 won't let you access the recently released Criminal Activity DLC, even though it's supposed to. The real kicker, though, is that the slightly cheaper premium version of the game doesn't appear to have this problem. "Right now...
Rumour Rise of the Tomb Raider to Clamber onto PS4 in Late 2016
Port will apparently not be full-price
Time to take out your mouth guard and chomp down on a tasty rumour regarding Rise of the Tomb Raider: the Xbox exclusive will apparently release on the PlayStation 4 in Q4 2016. This tidbit comes courtesy of YouTube channel The Know, which has a shaky track record right now; the account successfully leaked Dark...

Talking Point What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 73
SW19
It's been a much tamer week here at Push Square Towers after the intensity of E3 2015. For starters, Robert Ramsey's taken some well deserved days off, which means that we haven't had to hear about the latest Samurai Warriors every six or so minutes. Moreover, there's been a real dearth of big news following last week's tidal wave. Let's hope...
News PSN Experiencing Issues Due to External Factors
Down but not entirely out
It's the weekend, which means that the PlayStation Network is offline for some. Fortunately, these issues don't appear to be especially widespread – it's not affecting any of us here at Push Square Towers, for example – but there is a poorly composed message on the PSN Status Page explaining that the problems are due to...
News Horizon: Zero Dawn Has a Bigger Budget Than The Last Guardian, Says Sony
Oh
Even if it's endured one of the worst development cycles in gaming history, The Last Guardian still has a smaller budget than Guerrilla Games' new franchise, Horizon: Zero Dawn. That's what Shuhei Yoshida, president of Sony's Worldwide Studios, told Eurogamer.net earlier today. After being asked if The Last Guardian was one of the most expensive...
Review Tales from the Borderlands: Episode 3 - Catch a Ride (PS4)
Touchgoal
After a hiatus that felt like forever, Telltale returns with Tales from the Borderlands: Episode 3 – Catch a Ride. While we felt that the opening episode was fantastic – it really was a pleasant surprise – the follow-up took a step back. It wasn't that Episode 2 was bad, it just didn't feel terribly fulfilling – but now we're at...
News Batman: Arkham Knight's PS4 Leaderboards Are Busted
Gotham's not-so greatest
Batman: Arkham Knight's probably not the first game that you'd think of when it comes to well integrated leaderboards, but we're actually quite fond of the way in which the title keeps track of both your progress through the campaign and your performance in AR Missions. At least we were, until they went offline. Like many,...
News PS4, PS3 Versions of Grand Theft Auto V Get a New Radio Station in July
The Lab
The Lab, a Grand Theft Auto V radio station that was PC exclusive, is coming to consoles next month. It consists of songs from the game's original soundtrack, but remixed and repurposed by a slew of musicians from a variety of genres. Basically, if you've ever wanted Freddie Gibbs and Wavves on the same station, this is for you. We're big...

Answers to E. Nigma's cunning conundrums
Riddle us this: how do you solve every riddle in Batman: Arkham Knight on the PlayStation 4? Gotham City's most putridly dressed puzzler is back in Rocksteady Studios' latest open world adventure, and he's brought a whole slew of conundrums with him to tax your grey matter. Fortunately, you won't need to flex...
News PS4, PS3, Vita EU Discounts Discover What's Big in Japan
Cut-price content
A ton of top PlayStation titles have had their digital prices slashed in Europe this week, as Sony's online plaza aims to explore what's big in Japan. Fans of the Dynasty Warriors franchise will be particularly well serviced, as a handful of titles have been cut down to size on the PlayStation 4. A shout must also go to the...
News Shenmue III Stretch Goals Extend PS4, PC Sequel's Scope
Betting games, battle systems, and more
After the initial burst of enthusiasm following its announcement, Shenmue III's long awaited Kickstarter campaign has slowed right down. In order for the title to reach its ultimate $10 million target, there's going to need to be another huge surge of interest – and creator Yu Suzuki and crew are desperately...
News Fallout 4 Fan Successfully Pre-Orders Sequel with Bottle Caps
Nuka cola connoisseur
Many of you will know that caps are the main currency in the Fallout franchise. Unfortunately, these can't be exchanged for goods in the real world – well, unless you happen to be a super fan with a plan. One Imgur user going by the name of GatorMacheteJr explained that he's been collecting bottle caps since playing Fallout 3...
News PS4 Players Are Demanding a Better PSN
#BetterPSN
Ah, you can't beat a bit of people power, can you? For whatever reason, PlayStation 4 owners have started to create a Twitter campaign centred on the idea of a better PlayStation Network – or, er, #BetterPSN if you're into all of that social media nonsense. It's not entirely clear what prompted the movement, but there have been some...
News Whispering Willows Has an Out-of-Body Experience on PS4, Vita
Look upon thyself
E3 2015 didn't bring as many of the smaller games as this author was expecting, but we suppose that that's because new ones are announced literally everyday on the PlayStation Blog. Whispering Willows is one such title, which is set to debut on the PlayStation 4 and Vita from 30th June in Europe and North America. It'll launch with...
Guide Getting the Most Out of DriveClub: PS Plus Edition
Tips for taking off your training wheels
Over two years after it was originally promised, DriveClub: PS Plus Edition is finally on the starting grid, waiting for you to give it a spin. The watered down racer comes with all of the features and functionality from the main game for free, but is limited to just 15 cars and 13 tracks from the Indian...
Review Tour de France 2015 (PS4)
Smooth ride
If your Sunday bike ride doesn't take you 180 kilometres through some of the most scenic areas of Europe, you really need to buck your ideas up. The rest of us – statuesque in our hard-bodied glory – don't really need a video game tie-in for the Tour de France, because we live it every single day. Still, last year's travesty...
Weirdness Drink a Glass of Water to Get Free Dying Light DLC
Shots fired
Well, this is brilliant. The other day, Destiny developer Bungie announced that players could gain exclusive DLC by buying specific cans of energy drink Red Bull. Understandably, it was seen as a pretty reprehensible ploy, so now Polish Studio Techland has responded with its own promotion for
News Don't Forget to Download Your Free The Witcher 3 DLC on PS4
Available now in Europe and North America
Let's be honest, The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt's free DLC hasn't been worth shouting about – but it has kept CD Projekt Red's role-playing game in the news cycle every week. And we're going to play right into the Polish developer's hands by reminding you that there's a new batch of complimentary content...
News Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 5 Will Let You Create and Share Your Own Parks
Will support up to 20 skaters at once
Robomodo's certainly talking a great game with Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 5, so it's a bit of a shame that the title currently looks so low-budget. Due out from 29th September on the PlayStation 4 – a PlayStation 3 version is due out at some point thereafter – the release aims to plot a return to the classic...
News July's PlayStation Plus Lineup to Be Announced Next Week
DriveClub: PS Plus Edition is an extra bonus

News Shenmue III Targets $10 Million as Funding Is Clarified
Sony won't see a cent
There's been a bit of a backlash surrounding Shenmue III since its announcement last week, which has been a bit disappointing to see. Ever wondered why we can't have nice things? Well, it's because there'll always be some spiteful people out there looking to scupper them – and Yu Suzuki's crowd funding campaign has been the...

News The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt's PS4 Patch 1.05 Improves Gameplay Stability Today
More major updates on the way

A new patch – numbered v1.05 for those keeping count – will release on the PlayStation 4 later today, and will bring with it a variety of bug...
News The New PlayStation 4's Already Out in Japan
Fast movers
Sony's a fast worker, isn't it? The revised PlayStation 4 – which is a teensy bit lighter and a little less power hungry – was only announced a couple of days ago, but it's already on sale in Japan right now. The ever eagle-eyed DualShockers spotted various product lis
News Japanese Sales Charts: The Devil May Cry at These PS4 Numbers
No, really
Another week brings more shockingly depressing sales figures for PlayStation 4 fans in Japan. Sony's new-gen system went through a stellar period for a couple of months earlier in the year, but it's really struggling right now, and it's hard to pick out an imminent piece of software that's going to turn its fortunes around. The console...
News Nintendo's Reggie Is Still Having a Pop at PlayStation
There, there
Reggie Fils-Aime is one of the more likeable executives in the industry, but his claws were out at E3 2015. The backlash to Nintendo's lacklustre Digital Event led to some subtle probing from various corners of the press, and the Nintenboss opted to deflect those criticisms with barbed comments at the competition. Take this one on the...
News Persona 5 PS4, PS3 Trailer Boards the Hype Train to Hell
Steal back your future
Persona 5 is apparently still on course for its 2015 release, so a new trailer probably shouldn't come as much of a surprise. This latest video is included on the DVD that ships with the Japanese version of Persona 4 Dancing All Night – but despite the rhythm title not launching until tomorrow, the new clip's already leaked...
News Red Bull Will Give You Win in Destiny: The Taken King
Marked drinks will come with XP boosts
This is going to be controversial. Activision has revealed the extent of Destiny's partnership with energy drink Red Bull, and it goes further than your usual branded armour and in-game guff. Those of you that pick up specially marked cans in the United States will instead nab XP boosts, which will increase...
News Sony 'Really Wanted' That Call of Duty: Black Ops III Deal with Activision
Destiny deal helped as well
Whether you realise it or not, Sony teaming up with Activision for Call of Duty: Black Ops III is a big deal. It marks the end of a partnership between Xbox and Activision that lasted nearly an entire console generation, it probably cost Sony a fortune, and – while it won't necessarily guarantee the Japanese giant the...
Store Update 24th June 2015 (Europe)
Size matters
As with the North American update yesterday, it's a surprisingly big week for the European PlayStation Store. The highlight, naturally, is Batman: Arkham Knight – but Final Fantasy XIV fans will also find their heads turned by new expansion Heavensward. All of the new arrivals are embedded below. PS4 Games: Astebreed Not available...
News DriveClub: PS Plus Edition Begins Slow and Steady Roll Out Tomorrow
Easy does it
DriveClub has been a bit of a car crash for Sony, hasn't it? Don't get us wrong, the game is actually brilliant these days, but a paltry launch offering paired with various server issues has put the Evolution Studios racer right at the rear of the pack. And the biggest failing in its catalogue of errors has been the PlayStation Plus...
News Marvel at Raw No Man's Sky Footage Running on PS4
Sky's the limit
The problem with No Man's Sky is that despite its grand premise, we're still yet to get a proper look at the title in action. Press conference demonstrations are typically over in the blink of an eye, while Hello Games has been quite shy when it comes to releasing full video demonstrations to the press. Fortunately, one YouTube...
News The Lighter PS4 Also Has a Few Other Changes
Buttons, bulbs, and more
A revised PlayStation 4 is set to launch later this month in Japan, which seems designed to bring production costs down. In addition to being a little lighter and a teensy bit less power hungry, the device also comes with a few other minor alterations – including mechanical buttons, which means that you'll no longer...
Store Update 23rd June 2015 (North America)
A surprisingly big one
The calm after the storm? Those ripples you see in the glass of water before you are not from a nearing T-Rex, but from a tidal wave of software instead. Batman: Arkham Knight is obviously the big new arrival this week, but special mentions must go to Devil May Cry 4 and PlanetSide 2, too. What are you buying? PS4 Games:...
First Impressions Batman: Arkham Knight PS4 Sure Is Fighting Fit
Alright on the Knight
Holy awkward release date, Batman – you contrary cowl connoisseur. There's probably a metaphor that Warner Bros was trying to convey to the games media when it dated Batman: Arkham Knight just days after E3 2015 – like, y'know how Bruce Wayne has to keep fighting to ensure that Gotham City's safe... Yeah, the public...
News DriveClub: PS Plus Edition Is Finally Rolling Out on PlayStation 4
Update: And it's already gone
Update (20:45PM BST): Looks like someone messed up: the DriveClub: PS Plus Edition client has now been removed from the PlayStation Store again. Judging by Shuhei Yoshida's not-so subtle reaction on Twitter, we're guessing that someone goofed up. Just when you thought this whole saga couldn't get any more...
News Conversations with Creators Is Behind the Music for PS4, PS3
Wil Wheaton to host
Ah, so the promise of more original PlayStation Network programming has been realised – it just appears that Sony had the good sense to keep it out of its E3 2015 press conference this time. Conversations with Creators with Wil Wheaton – bit of a mouthful that – has been revealed on the PlayStation Blog. And y'know what –...
News Crash Bandicoot Could Have Appeared in Uncharted 4 on PS4
Discussions definitely took place
Well, this would have been a mind-melting moment, wouldn't it? Speaking as part of an interview with A.V. Club, Bruce Straley has hinted that Naughty Dog wanted to put Crash Bandicoot into Uncharted 4: A Thief's End. The senior employee, who's serving as the game director on the forthcoming PlayStation 4 exclusive,...

Feature Push Square's E3 2015 Game of the Show - Horizon: Zero Dawn
Bring me the Horizon
There hasn't been this much buzz surrounding Guerrilla Games for a while. The first-party firm last truly dropped jaws with its infamous Killzone 2 demo at E3 2005, a clip that turned out to be staged. A decade later, the Dutch developer has learned a lesson or two – it always shows gameplay where possible for a start...

News These PS4 Fans Really Want a SOCOM 2 Remaster
Tango down
Ah, remasters: some loathe 'em, some love 'em. Whichever camp you fall into, it doesn't sound like they're going to stop anytime soon – especially when people are campaigning for more to get made. SOCOM 2 is the latest target of fans, as a group of military aficionados rally around the forgotten franchise to get its second instalment...
News Oh Great, Both Prototypes Are Coming to PS4
Meat is Mercer
Activision should remaster the Prototype franchise for the PlayStation 4, said absolutely no one ever. We reckon that re-releases certainly have their place on the Japanese giant's new-gen system, but let's be realistic here: there are some franchises that belong in the bargain bin at a second hand games store, and Prototype is one of...
News Rise of the Tomb Raider Dev Sympathises with PS4 Players
Xbox exclusivity a problem for PlayStation fans
Rise of the Tomb Raider isn't coming out on the PlayStation 4 – well, not yet anyway. In all likelihood, the release will launch on Sony's system six or so months after the Xbox version deploys in November – but that's still quite a long wait for fans of the franchise. Asked whether PlayStation...
Review Payday 2: Crimewave Edition (PS4)
The heist life
As a law abiding citizen, committing robbery is probably the last thing on your mind. That said, somewhere inside your deepest thoughts – whether you'd admit it or not – you've probably pondered what it would be like to throw off the shackles of society's laws, and turn to a life crime. In Payday 2: Crimewave Edition for the...
Guide How to View Photos, Play Music, and Watch Videos with PS4 Media Player
Use your home network or USB drive to access all of your entertainment
Sony put a big emphasis on games when it launched the PlayStation 4, and its laser focused marketing won the hearts and minds of gamers. But as its new PlayStation Vue commercial so astutely illustrates, just because games are the focus of the format, doesn't mean that owners...

Playing favourites
Wow, what an incredible E3 it's been.

News Forklift Racing Could Return in Shenmue III on PS4, PC
At least we have that to look forward to

Please excuse the terrible by-line pun, but there was no way we were ever going to let that one pass us by. Now, onto proceedings...

To be fair, it is...
E3 2015 What Remains of Edith Finch Sounds Utterly Insane
Control animals in the search for scran
Remember how The Unfinished Swan frequently introduced new mechanics – only to toss them out about an hour later? Giant Sparrow's pushing that idea further with What Remains of Edith Finch, a game which is all about the ancestry of an unusual family over time. The demo that the developer's showing at E3 2015...
E3 2015 Mirror's Edge Catalyst Will Be More Accessible, But Will Still Reward Skill
Faith no more
Mirror's Edge on the PlayStation 3 was great, but few of its fans would deny that it had problems. The combat was probably right at the top of the list, but it also had some really frustrating difficulty spikes. In the series' sophomore outing, Mirror's Edge Catalyst on the PlayStation 4, it will be a little more forgiving – but...
News Final Fantasy VII PS4 Won't Be a Simple Remake
Cloud nine
People, we can talk about the Final Fantasy VII Remake like it's a real thing – because it is. The game was announced during Sony's big E3 2015 press conference as a timed exclusive for the PlayStation 4 – and the reveal blew pretty much everyone at Push Square Towers' mind. Associate editor Robert Ramsey is still hyperventilating...
News Batman: Arkham Knight's Day One PS4 Patch Is Bigger Than Bane
But the game runs as smooth as butter on Sony's system
You'll need to set aside a bit of time before booting up Batman: Arkham Knight on the PlayStation 4 next week, as the game will launch alongside a hefty day one patch. Weighing in at around 3.5GB, the v1.01 update lists improved performance and stability fixes among its most notable tweaks...
News Ryo Hazuki's Ghastly Shenmue III Character Model Will Totally Improve
Ine-san will be worried
In the cold, hard, sobering light of day, let's be honest: Shenmue III doesn't look very good yet.

But with the funding drive already successful – and Sony admitting that it will be putting its hand in its...
News The Witcher 3's PS4 Patch 1.05 Hunts Down Bugs In the Near Future
Squish squash
The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt's upcoming patch is a relatively small one, but it does fix numerous rather annoying little bugs. For starters, you no longer have to worry about getting rich, as the game won't reset your fortune by accident when you pass the 65535 crowns mark. What's more, Geralt's current outfit won't appear wet when you...
Feature 10 of the Best PS4 Videos from E3 2015
Blinded by brilliance
E3 2015 almost had too many great videos to count, but we've somehow managed to cut our seemingly endless list of brilliant clips down to the ten best. Now, by ten best, we mean the very best of the best; these are the videos that we reckon defined this year's E3. That said, if you want to scour through almost every piece of...
E3 2015 Bethesda Says Graphics Were Sacrificed for Gameplay in Fallout 4
The beauty of destruction
"Everything that we do is a balance", Bethesda marketing director Pete Hines told GameSpot. The publisher's upcoming open world role-playing game, Fallout 4, got a big showing at this year's E3, but there's been a lot of conversation regarding the title's visual prowess.

Soapbox Was E3 2015 Just a Dream?
Sammy Barker reflects on the greatest of all time
I'm half expecting to stir from my slumber any minute, clammy after a restless night filled with vivid dreams. That can't have been E3 2015, can it – a show in which the impossible became possible all within the span of an hour? I've been covering this event for a good six years now, and I know,...
E3 2015 Bizarre PS4 Exclusive The Tomorrow Children Blasts Off in Autumn
Tomorrow Never Dies
The Tomorrow Children is one of the PlayStation 4's strangest exclusives, and a classic example of how the Japanese giant is committed to supporting totally unique experiences. Unique being the strongly operative word here, though, as we're still not entirely sure what the game is actually about. At any rate, the tantalizing...
E3 2015 PS4 First-Person Sandbox RPG Kingdom Come: Deliverance Is Definitey One to Watch
Life is not just a fantasy
Kingdom Come: Deliverance is a role-playing game, but it doesn't feature any fantasy tropes. There's no magic, no dragons - just you, your trusty blade, and maybe a horse. The successful Kickstarter title's in development at Czech studio Warhorse, and it's planning to release a beta for the game - at least on PC - later...
E3 2015 Almost Half PS4 Owners Never Had a PS3
Changing minds
At this point, we can probably all accept that the PlayStation 3 had problems. It was ultimately a great console, don't get us wrong – but Sony really misfired with the architecture and price, prompting it to lose ground against a very aggressive Xbox 360. With the PlayStation 4, however, the Japanese giant's got back to its...
E3 2015 Sony's Been Borrowing Ideas from Oculus, Says Yoshida
Both products will be launching "very, very soon"
Sony's biggest fear for Project Morpheus isn't that it will be outdone by the Oculus Rift; rather, the company is more concerned that virtual reality may never catch on. That's according to Shuhei Yoshida, the president of Sony's Worldwide Studios, who spoke to Polygon earlier today. "We know each...
News The Batman: Arkham Knight PS4 Is Particularly Pretty
Slick in silver
Some of the official custom PlayStation 4 consoles have been pretty bad if you ask this author, but the Batman: Arkham Knight one bucks that trend. Sony's deployed an unboxing for the brand new bundle, and while it's a little overproduced, it should sell you on the system if you've been sitting indecisively on the fence. We've...
