News By the Grace of the Goddess, Dragon Quest Heroes is Coming West on PS4
Time to slime
A mere day after its Japanese launch, and Square Enix has announced that Dragon Quest Heroes is heading to Western PlayStation 4s. Consequently, the Push Square office is currently in an uproar. The publisher has revealed the good news via a press release, which states that the colourful hack and slasher will be available later this...
News PS4's Batman: Arkham Knight Will Take You to Some 'Dark Places'
Gloomy Gotham
Batman: Arkham Knight will take its titular hero to some "dark places", according to game director Sefton Hill. This follows confirmation that the release has been awarded an M rating by US ratings board ESRB, meaning that it's intended for players aged 17 or over only. However, the executive insists that the studio won't be going...
News GAME's Selling a £250,000 Dying Light Collector's Edition
Includes your very own zombie shelter
UK retailer GAME is well known for its steep prices, but this Dying Light collector's edition is something else. Clearly part of a marketing ploy to promote Techland's delayed undead-'em-up – which is finally due out physically in Europe this week – the £250,000 ($387,372) one-of-a-kind set includes a...
News How Did That Metal Gear Rising 2 PS4 Rumour Start?
By mistake, it seems
Do you remember earlier in the year when Sony seemingly teased Metal Gear Rising 2 for the PlayStation 4? Hideo Kojima instantly debunked the rumours, but after years of ruses, we didn't believe him. It turns out that he was telling the truth, though, as Platinum Games has now commented on the speculation, to
News March's PlayStation Plus Freebies Will Be Announced This Week
Sony finalising details
We swear that these PlayStation Plus updates seem to come around quicker every month. It only feels like yesterday that we were telling you about Apotheon and Transistor in February's refresh, and now we're days away from another big Instant Game Collection content drop. Sony's been quite hush about March's lineup, but it...
News Dynasty Warriors Will Be Dabbling with a Free-to-Play Model Next Month
Penny for your thoughts
We admittedly didn't see this coming, but when we stop to think about it, we suppose it kind of makes sense. Dynasty Warriors 8: Empires, which we recently reviewed, features an absolute ton of customisation elements, from character creation options, to scenario building tools -- and it looks like publisher Koei Tecmo is...
First Impressions Is Resident Evil: Revelations 2 Rotten or Ripe on PS4?
Claire's accessories
Resident Evil: Revelations faced a tough test when we reviewed it on the PlayStation 3 a couple of years ago. At the time of its release in May 2013, this author had already played a meaty chunk of The Last of Us, and Jill Valentine's oceanic romp failed to really live up. In hindsight, it was perhaps a little unfair to expect...
Store Update 24th February 2015 (North America)
Scrum kitty
There's a little something for everyone on the North American PlayStation Store this week, with Dragon Ball XenoVerse, Resident Evil: Revelations 2, and Dynasty Warriors 8: Empires all up for grabs. Heck, Rugby 15 has even made the roster. You do like a spot of ruggah in the US, right? PS4 Games: Dragon Ball Xenoverse ($59.99) Dragon...
Out This Week Dragon Ball XenoVerse, Resident Evil: Revelations 2, Dynasty Warriors 8: Empires
Over 9,000
This edition of Out This Week may be fashionably late again, but boy are we bringing the heat. Well, technically, we're not bringing anything – but, er, what we're trying to say is that a lot of good games are due out over the coming days. These include Dragon Ball XenoVerse, Resident Evil: Revelations 2, and more. It's also worth...
News Pre-Order PS4, PC Exclusive Street Fighter V for Access to Beta
Here comes a new challenger
Just when we thought that we could settle down for some Champion's League football, Capcom's dropped some big news regarding PlayStation 4 and PC exclusive Street Fighter V. Alongside a new trailer – which we'll get to imminently – it's announced that it will be embarking on "the largest and most ambitious online beta...
Should have known
Today's a pretty big day for game releases, but, as per usual, something's went a bit wrong on the PlayStation Store. Many users are reporting that they can't download or preload Dragon Ball XenoVerse and Resident Evil: Revelations 2. This appears to be caused by some sort of problem with Sony's service, but the company has stated...
News Pure Hold'em Plays Its Cards Right on PS4
Poker face
Birmingham-based developer VooFoo Studios knows a thing or two about tabletop titles, having already shepherded the excellent Pure Pool and Pure Chess onto the PlayStation 4. Now it's back with Pure Hold'em, a poker-themed release that's sure to become the next big hit on the Live from PlayStation application. As with all of the firm's...
News Rise of the Tomb Raider Could Still Plot Lara Croft's Revival on PS4
"We'll come back to that at a later date"
There's a real danger that Rise of the Tomb Raider could end up being defined by behind-the-scenes business decisions, and Game Informer's latest cover story is evidence of that. While the publication's coverage includes plenty of details about Lara Croft's forthcoming foray, most people want to know one...
Rumour Guitar Hero PS4 to Make Some Noise at E3 2015
Who loves rock 'n' roll?
Activision is tuning up a new entry in the Guitar Hero series for the PlayStation 4, separate sources have told Kotaku.

News Grand Theft Auto V's Online Heists Finally Make a Getaway Next Month
Dollar bills, y'all
After what seems like an absolute eternity, Rockstar Games has finally revealed a – hopefully – concrete release date for Grand Theft Auto V's highly anticipated online heists. Grand Theft Auto Online's most ambitious project yet will launch next month, on 10th March. The four player co-op activities promise to be thrilling...
Review Dragon Ball XenoVerse (PlayStation 4)
Sparking!
If you're a fan of Dragon Ball, be it the brilliantly detailed original manga series or the animated adaptation, the chances are that the story is now embedded deep within your psyche – especially if you've played even just a few of the licensed games over the years. It's hard to surprise a fan, then, because they already know the plot...
Review Dynasty Warriors 8: Empires (PlayStation 4)
Empires of the Sun
Trying to describe Dynasty Warriors' spin-off Empires series is a difficult proposition, even to someone who's familiar with the franchise's main instalments. At their core, the games are the same, in that gameplay still involves hacking and slashing your way through entire armies in a bid to conquer China, but it's everything...
Round Up Resident Evil: Revelations 2 PS4 Reviews Are a Sight for Sore Eyes
You've got Redfield on you
With so many games adopting different pricing models and release structures these days, it's becoming increasingly difficult to figure out a review strategy that makes sense. Resident Evil: Revelations 2 really takes the biscuit, though, launching on a disc in March – but also as part of four weekly episodes on the...

#4TheKitties
If you're feline fine, then you may be interested in Scram Kitty DX, which is set to tread its way onto the PlayStation 4 and Vita this week in Europe.

News Don't Hold Your Breath for the PS3 Version of Dead or Alive 5: Last Round in Europe
Ayane angry
And so the Dead or Alive 5: Last Round saga lurches on to round three. After failing to show up on the PlayStation Store in Europe last week, Koei Tecmo confirmed yesterday that the title would be available from Wednesday on the PlayStation 4. What of the PlayStation 3 version, however? Well, that's still in SCEE limbo, according
News You Lot Have Butchered 5.65 Billion Uruks in Shadow of Mordor
Bloody Mordor
Oof, that's quite an impressive statistic isn't it? Since the game's launch, players have killed 5.65 billion Uruks in total, and according to the graphic that we've posted, that equates to about 76 kills per hour. Meanwhile, only 200 million uglies have been dominated, proving once and for all that there's nothing more satisfying...
News PS4 Brawler Dead or Alive 5: Last Round Delayed Until Wednesday on EU PS Store
Slow clap
We suspect that the folks at Koei Tecmo feel like going all Ryu Hayabusa on Sony's ass right now, as Dead or Alive 5: Last Round has been delayed until Wednesday on the European PlayStation Store. While this doesn't sound so bad in isolation, it's worth noting that the title was due out on Friday, but failed to show up on the PlayStation...
Opinion How Reviews Can Colour a Game's Reception
Good and bad
There's a growing sentiment among the gaming press that sites like this one are an outdated concept. Apparently, people no longer want to read a considered critique of a game – they'd rather watch a playthrough on YouTube or Twitch, with some commentary from a popular personality. It's something that's constantly on this author's...
News DriveClub: PlayStation Plus Edition Still Being Looked at for PS4
Patience is a virtue
DriveClub runs like butter these days, but Evolution Studios has said that the racer's promised PlayStation Plus version is still not ready for primetime. And in an interview with Metro, SCEE boss Jim Ryan has furthered that the format holder still has nothing to share on the subject. "That's still being looked at," he said of...
News Sony Suggests It Will Be Streamlining Its Day One PS4 Patches
"We're going to tighten up"
Want to know the worst thing about the PlayStation 3? You'd put in a disc, and then proceed to twiddle your thumbs while you waited for it to install. Fortunately, the PlayStation 4 solves many of these issues, but it's introduced a new one in its place: the dreaded day one patch. These are getting bigger and bigger as...
News Have No Fear, Diablo III Isn't Getting Microtransactions in the West
Hell and back
A rather controversial rumour sprung up over the weekend regarding microtransactions being slipped into Diablo III courtesy of its upcoming patch, but publisher Blizzard has since quelled the unrest, at least here in the West. The aforementioned update, which will launch in the near future, was recently datamined, and it was suggested...
News Sony: We Were Absolutely Distraught at DriveClub's Launch
"We've learnt an awful lot"
DriveClub disappointed at launch. Evolution Studios' next-gen racer may have made a late charge for podium position – and we actually think that the game's awesome as it stands now – but it's hard to ignore those first few months of inconsistent o
News Dragon Quest Heroes' Japanese Ad Campaign Is Incredibly Satisfying
Pop, don't stop
It's been quite some time since we saw an advertising campaign as good as Dragon Quest Heroes' Japanese attempt. At Shinjuku's metro station, Square Enix has plastered a wall with bubble wrap, and asks that the public band together and pop it. This isn't your normal safety material, however, as each individual bubble sports a...
News Start Your Week Right with Some HD Final Fantasy XV PS4 Screenshots

Don't worry if you missed anything, because we've compiled all...
News Heavenly Sword's Art Director Has Returned to Ninja Theory to Work on Hellblade
The circle of life
Ninja Theory's forthcoming PlayStation 4 foray Hellblade is clearly a spiritual successor to Heavenly Sword – that name's a dead giveaway, after all – but the Cambridge-based developer has recruited the PlayStation 3 exclusive's art director, Hugues Giboire, just to make the link complete. The veteran has rejoined the team...
News God of War's Tim Moss: The Order: 1886 Sets the New PS4 Graphics Bar
"I'll be having conversations with the team"
Tim Moss may not be a household name like some of PlayStation's other high-ranking employees, but he's responsible for some of the brand's biggest games. Having served as Sony Santa Monica's director of technology for years, he knows a thing or two about pushing the boundaries of the Japanese giant's...
News Kamurocho's Calling in Yakuza Zero PS4 Demo Video
Talk of the town
While we're still waiting patiently for Yakuza 5's launch here in the West, the lucky folks over in Japan are preparing themselves for the release of Yakuza Zero – an eighties themed prequel which aims to tell series protagonist Kazuma Kiryu's origin story. Due out on 12th March in the Land of the Rising Sun, publisher SEGA has...
Review Resogun: Defenders (PlayStation 4)
Offence is the best form of defence
Goodbye doesn't always have to be the saddest word – it can be explosive, too. Resogun: Defenders marks the last of the post-launch expansions for Housemarque's critically acclaimed PlayStation 4 shoot-'em-up, and, perhaps unsurprisingly, it's something of a humdinger. Packing two brand new modes – Protector...
Review Hustle Kings (PlayStation 4)
Worth a shot
There were no shortage of pub games on the PlayStation 3 by the end of its tenure as Sony's flagship format, and the PlayStation 4 is picking off right where its predecessor left off. Following the release of VooFoo Studios' pretty Pure Pool last year, the Japanese giant has decided to port Hustle Kings – ironically, also originally...
Talking Point What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 57
Hobnobs
It's a brief WAYP this week, as everyone at Push Square Towers is too busy actually enjoying their weekends to talk about it. This editor may have to resort to new tactics to encourage further engagement – perhaps the promise of office Hobnobs will do the job? We shall see. Sammy Barker, Editor: It's a mixture of all sorts for me this...
News Next PS4 Firmware Update Is Not Too Far Out, Says Sony
Already overdue
It's been months since PlayStation 4 firmware update v2.00 added some significant features – and bugs – to Sony's next-gen system. Since then, we've had several stability updates, but nothing particularly meaty to sink our teeth into. And this is starting to get frustrating, as the format is still missing key features, such as...
News This Is What Happens When PS4 Share Play Goes Wrong
Hours of Destiny progress destroyed in the blink of an eye
Never trust the Internet. The embedded Destiny video may seem downright boring at first, but it comes to an epic conclusion – and carries a valuable lesson for us all. In it, a young PlayStation 4 player is merely having fun streaming Bungie's first-person shooter, when he's told by a...
News The Order: 1886's 256 Page Strategy Guide Is Pure Gold
Push square
We're not ones to kick a game when it's down – after all, we really like parts of Ready at Dawn's inaugural PlayStation 4 exclusive – but The Order: 1886 is probably the last title on the planet that needed a 256 page strategy guide. Still, that's exactly what Brady Games has produced, and it's already proving a hit in some hardcore...
News Disco Dodgeball Dev Strongly Considering PS4 Port in the Future
Stayin' alive
You'd need to look back to the halcyon days of the PSone to find a good dodgeball game, but fortunately the genre could be about to rebound courtesy of the elaborately named Robot Roller Derby: Disco Dodgeball. Currently tearing up the charts on Steam – where it's the number one rated multiplayer title on Valve's storefront – the...

Godzilla's crashing onto Western PlayStation 4s and PlayStation 3s in July, publisher Bandai Namco has announced. And with that, we can almost hear the heartfelt roars of many a giant lizard fan. The game, which is currently just called Godzilla, sees you smash up cities and other massive monsters with attacks typical of the...

Dead on arrival
Oh dear, Dead or Alive 5: Last Round hasn't got off to a good start on the PlayStation 4.

For starters,

If you missed today's Final Fantasy XV demo livestream, which included our best look yet at the game, then you'll be happy to know that we've embedded a recording of the entire show in this very article. The problem is that it spans over one hour and forty minutes, and much of that is director Hajime Tabata talking in...
Play your f***ing class
In a generation littered with server issues, campaign length fears, and a heightened interest in getting more for your money, it seems odd that a title would launch with some online-only multiplayer modes, no real campaign, and more DLC than you can probably afford. That's exactly what Evolve has done. However, this...
News You've Got Next to No Chance of Playing the Finished Final Fantasy XV This Year

News Destiny's Next Patch Will Bring Matchmaking to Weekly Heroic Strikes
Heroes unite
While some players are still desperate for the ability to automatically find other Guardians to attempt Raids with, Bungie refuses to budge on its stance of keeping matchmaking far away from Destiny's toughest trials.

Review Dead or Alive 5: Last Round (PlayStation 4)
Last but not least
Dead or Alive's first foray onto the PlayStation 4 is everything that you'd expect, and not much else.

Dead or Alive 5: Last Round is the most complete edition of Koei Tecmo's...
Guide The Order: 1886 PS4 Trophy Guide & Road Map
Tip of the hat
The Order: 1886 has its fair share of problems, but if you're a fan of story-focused games, then you may yet wring some enjoyment out of Ready at Dawn's alternate history affair. The good news for Trophy hunters is that the PlayStation 4 exclusive's Platinum pot is blissfully easy to obtain, with all of the trinkets available in a...
News Sony's Sending Free Evolve PS4 Themes to EU PlayStation Plus Members
Level up your device's dashboard
PlayStation Plus more or less pays for itself when you look at the free games that get given away on a monthly basis, but the platform holder regularly sends out the odd surprise to engaged members. This Evolve PlayStation 4 theme that's being distributed in Europe is a nice little extra on top of the Instant Game...

News Dragon's Dogma Online Definitely Looks Worthy of Your Time in This New Trailer
The whole hogma
It's normal to be cautious of free-to-play titles in this day and age, but we'd still love to get our hands on Dragon's Dogma Online. The game's newest trailer provides a good look at the release and its characters, as well as some of the monsters that you'll be fighting. It looks a heck of a lot like Dragon's Dogma, but we suppose...
News What the Heck's Sackboy Doing in The Order: 1886?
LittleBigLondon
The Order: 1886 is a mostly quite solemn game, but developer Ready at Dawn does find the odd occasion to lighten the mood. Most of these moments come courtesy of lothario knight Lafayette, but we also appreciated this LittleBigPlanet Easter egg. It can be found in the title's third chapter, perched upon an otherwise quite ordinary...
Review The Order: 1886 (PlayStation 4)
Out of order
The Order: 1886 dares to tread where so many others have fallen, by attempting to fuse interactivity with cinematic qualities. And in some ways, it succeeds: developer Ready at Dawn has clearly sipped from the Holy Grail of the graphics gods, as this is arguably the most technologically accomplished title ever released. However, in its...
News PS4 RPG Deep Down May End Up Being a Different Game to the One You Know
Back from the deep
We're not quite sure what's happening with Deep Down.

Earlier in the month, the Japanese company confirmed that it's still in the works, but also stated that...
News PS4 Takes Centre Stage in Sony's Big New Three Year Strategy
Growth driver
It's been obvious for a while, but Sony will continue to bet on the PlayStation 4 to put it back in the black.

News Picking Up a PS4 Soon? You Could Also Get a Free PlayStation TV
Not bad at all
It's safe to say that the PlayStation TV hasn't set the world on fire.

Starting today, retailer GameStop...
