News Something's Coming in Sony's Second Gamescom 2014 Teaser of the Day
An axe to grind
Sony’s in full on hype mode ahead of its Gamescom 2014 press conference next week – it’s just a shame that it’s releasing some pretty poor promotional trailers to lead into the event. Alright, this one isn’t anywhere near as bad as this afternoon’s hypnotherapy session, but two teasers in one day is probably a little bit...
Guide When Is Sony's Gamescom 2014 Press Conference?
Briefing you on the time of PlayStation's media briefing
Gamescom is a bit of a favourite here at Push Square Towers. The German convention may lack the exorbitant hype of E3, but it feels a little less corporate as a consequence. Part of that’s probably down to the fact that the general public is invited to attend the show, but even the press...
News Sony's Gamescom 2014 Teaser Trailers Are Getting Worse
Is this some kind of hypnotherapy?
With the games industry getting ready to descend upon Germany ahead of next week’s Gamescom 2014 convention, Sony is starting to hype up its annual media briefing. A few days ago it deployed a teaser trailer for what appeared to be Until Dawn, but now it’s gone with something a little more vanilla to count down...
Game of the Month July 2014 - The Last of Us Remastered
Your record is broken
They may be the spores of yore, but it’s no surprise that The Last of Us Remastered has clouded our minds since its release last week. Technically an August launch in Europe, we figured that we’d classify it in this version of Game of the Month because, well, we don’t have any hard rules for this sort of thing and just...
News You'll Do More Than Hack 'n' Slash in Shadow Warrior This September
Just wait until you see the fish
With action games becoming dime a dozen, developers really have to make their titles stand out in the difficult video game market these days.

All part of being the best place to play
Sony wants you to feel special for selecting the PlayStation 4 over the handful of other systems on the market.

News Sony Sued $5 Million Over PS4 Shooter Killzone: Shadow Fall's Graphics
You're Kellan us here
Killzone: Shadow Fall may not be the best game on the PlayStation 4, but it undoubtedly ranks among the best looking. It seems that not everyone’s quite so keen on the first-person shooter’s uber-clean depiction of the future, however, as Sony is being sued over the next-gen exclusive’s graphics. Only in America, huh?...
Review Pure Pool (PlayStation 4)
A game with balls
It’s undeniable that VooFoo Studios is swiftly making a name for itself by producing incredibly photo realistic digital renditions of classic games. We’ve already covered the British-based outfit’s Backgammon and Chess endeavours, and now we’re onto Pure Pool, an adaptation of the quintessential pub pastime that’s...
News Sleeping Dogs Is Kung-Fu Kicking PS4 with All of Its DLC
No Wei
Even though it received a whopping 8/10 here at Push Square, Sleeping Dogs arrived on the PlayStation 3 as a Grand Theft Auto underdog. Following its free offering on PlayStation Plus, however, it quickly became a cult hit that many a gamer – including our staff – punched themselves for not discovering earlier. If you're one of those that...
Store Update 6th August 2014 (Europe)
Don't go breaking my chart
It’s the sizeable roster of free PlayStation Plus titles that are likely to keep you occupied this week, with the European PlayStation Store update playing host to new Instant Game Collection arrivals Metrico and Road Not Taken. Elsewhere, highlights include The Swapper and Table Top Racing, as well as the standalone...
News You'll Need to Take Out a Loan to Afford This Hat DLC for The Last of Us
Hats off
Some days video game news runs so thick and fast that the highly trained team of journalistic monkeys here at Push Square Towers can barely keep up with it all. Other days – like when a huge European industry event is in just under a week's time, for instance – there's so little happening that we're forced to cover stories that some...
News Tons of PS4 Titles Discounted in European Summer Sale
Feeling the heat
As promised, Sony has revealed the second round of Summer Sale savings – and this time, the heat is focused solely on the PlayStation 4. While none of these discounts go as low as you may be used to on the PlayStation 3 or Vita, it’s probably worth remembering that the next-gen console

Got, got, swap
It’s another big week for Sony’s trio of systems on the North American PlayStation Store, with Road Not Taken, The Swapper, Metrico, and Table Top Racing all leading the lineup. Those of you looking to the future may like to plonk down a pre-order on LittleBigPlanet 3 or
News Grand Theft Auto V Is Still Going to Jump Start Your PS4 This Year
Franklin and upfront
With every game under the sun seemingly getting delayed into next year, you may be forgiven for assuming that Rockstar Games’ silence with regards to the PlayStation 4 version of Grand Theft Auto V may speak volumes. Fortunately, as part of its latest financial report, publishing overlord Take Two has reiterated that the...
News PS4 Shooter Evolve Devolves Until February 2015
Cross it off the Christmas list
2K Games has announced that co-operative first-person shooter Evolve is the latest title to flee the hectic Christmas release schedule, settling down in the equally busy February window instead. Now due out on 10th February worldwide, the asymmetrical affair will be joined by The Order: 1886, The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt,...
Review Road Not Taken (PlayStation 4)
Rice, rabbits, and unfit parents
Every year, just as the winter starts to kill off the last of the year’s berries, children head out into the forest in a final attempt to boost food stores. Some of the little ones never come back, which seems to panic the parents a little too much considering that they let them go off and do it every year...
News Snow Joke! Sony Seemingly Teases Until Dawn PS4 Re-Reveal for GamesCom
Arms get cold in February air
Until Dawn became the poster child for Sony’s ill-fated PlayStation Move motion controller when it was first announced, which just goes to show how long the teen horror title has spent in hiding since being unveiled. As suspected, a leaked GamesCom 2014 lineup last week confirmed the release for the PlayStation 4 –...

News Did You Pre-Order Destiny's Big Ghost Edition? Congrats, You're Rich
Don't spend it all at once
There’s been a bit of bad news orbiting around Destiny like Saturn’s ring of late, but that hasn’t lowered the hotly anticipated PlayStation 4 shooter’s profile any. You may recall the ‘Ghost Edition’ of the release opening for pre-orders earlier in the year, where it promptly sold out. Well, don’t w
News Kano to Rip Out Your Rib Cage in Mortal Kombat X on PS4

Klassic kombatant Kano [Hey, they started it – Ed] is set to put in an appearance in upcoming brawler Mortal Kombat X, a German magazine has confirmed.

Weirdness What if The Last of Us Remastered Was for Kids?
Once upon a fright
“I’m the host of a fungus that grows in my brain, but it keeps off the sun and it keeps out the rain.” That’s the ditty that complements this brilliant children’s edition of The Last of Us, which is one of many incredible Dr. Seuss-inspired video game adaptations by Australian artist DrFaustusAU. The talented illustrator...
Out This Week Road Not Taken, The Swapper, Metrico
Clone wars
The best thing about this week’s roster of new PlayStation releases is that you’ll be playing a couple of them for free. Sony’s been especially good at marrying its Instant Game Collection updates to new arrivals of late, meaning that even if you hadn’t intended to follow the Road Not Taken or splash your cash on Metrico, you’ll...
Feature Why You Should Try The Last of Us Remastered's Multiplayer Mode on PS4
Endure and survive
Naughty Dog’s not half bad at multiplayer modes. When it was announced that Uncharted 2: Among Thieves would be entering the competitive arena, there was outrage among fans of the original outing – after all, this was a series that prided itself on its plot rather than its gunplay. However, the title’s acrobatic action...
News You'll Be Able to Lust After a New Yakuza Game from 24th August
SEGA's sure to Shun us
SEGA may not be very good at anything else these days, but it sure knows how to pump out new Yakuza titles in Japan. Despite historical spin-off Yakuza Ishin launching less than six months ago, the publisher is now preparing for the announcement of a new franchise foray for the PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 3 – and you’ll...
News That Rainbow PS4 Raised a Truckload of Money for Charity
Heartwarming hardware
You may remember a story that we ran a few days ago about a decidedly colourful PlayStation 4 with an important message. Dubbed the 'GayStation 4', this colourful custom SKU was constructed to coincide with the Stockholm Pride festival, and was planned to be auctioned off in order to raise money for Swedish charity RFSL. Well,...
News You'll Need Friends to Tackle PS4 Shooter Destiny's Three Hour Missions
Loners not allowed
Bungie’s somehow managed to peeve its playerbase for the second time in seven days, announcing that Destiny’s end game raids will not be playable unless you have five available friends. The firm recently irked fans by confirming that there’ll only be four locations in the game, with more to follow as downloadable content –...
News UK Sales Charts: The Last of Us Remastered Stumbles Upon Fifth Biggest Launch of the Year
All of that foraging paid off
Naughty Dog’s hard work porting re-release The Last of Us Remastered to the PlayStation 4 wasn’t for nothing, as the next-gen escapade has attained the fifth biggest launch of the year in the UK – an impressive feat considering that 90 per cent of the nation’s living it up in Alicante right now. It also secured...
News Sony Has Lots of Good Stuff Planned for GamesCom Next Week
Firm really looking forward to the show
Conventions are like clickers: they sneak up on you. We’ve only just washed our hands of E3 2014 a few months back, but already GamesCom 2014 is lurking – and as usual, Sony is planning to have a pretty big presence at the show. A recent leak revealed that announcements may include
Push Rewind The Last of Us Remastered, PS Plus Freebies, and Destiny Concerns
Groove jet
Summer’s ordinarily slow in the gaming industry, but the pounding in this editor’s head suggests that another convention is lurking. We’re right about a week away from German show GamesCom, which means that everything’s kicking off in the PlayStation Nation right now. And that includes several high-profile releases, spanning The...
News Guilty Gear Xrd SIGN May Be the PS4's Prettiest Fighter Yet
Guilty as charged
There's a lot to be said for photorealism in games. At the same time, a truly original and unique art-style can often be just as striking and memorable. Regardless of your stance on the issue, it's hard to deny that these new screenshots of upcoming PS4 fighter Guilty Gear Xrd SIGN are particularly pretty. Set to launch later in t
Feature Share Your Pictures of the Apocalypse from The Last of Us Remastered on PS4
Say cheese and die
It turns out that in-game photo modes really are the best thing since sliced bread. Back when inFAMOUS: Second Son added in a screenshot feature a few months back, we pondered whether more games should augment the addictive extra. Unsurprisingly, Naughty Dog has taken up the chall
News The Golf Club Swinging for 26th August Launch on PS4
Getting the greenlight
There’s been a serious lack of golf on the PlayStation 4 since launch, but Canadian developer HB Studios is aiming to put an end to that this month. Writing on its official forum, a company spokesperson noted that The Golf Club could putt a place onto Sony’s next-gen machine as soon as 26th August in North America...
News This Is What the Folks Behind Far Cry 4 Call Work
Green eyed monster
Making games is not easy. In addition to the excruciatingly long hours, technical challenges, and budget-based pressures, you also have to deal with idiotic online forum posters tossing obscenities at your title when given the opportunity. For the folks behind Far Cry 4, however, things aren’t all bad, as key members of the team...
News Don't Worry, PS4's Uncharted 4: A Thief's End Won't Be Dark and Gritty
Sequel won't step into The Last of Us' shadow
The Last of Us may well have exceeded all expectations, and cemented itself as one of the most important PlayStation exclusive properties since Gran Turismo and God of War – but that doesn’t mean that the upcoming Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End is going to be especially dark. The title's
News Infinity Ward Agrees to Tame Two Naughty Dog Employees
Call of Duty company adopts veterans
The over publicised exodus at Naughty Dog is showing no signs of slowing, as two studio strays have found a new home at Call of Duty: Ghosts developer Infinity Ward. Jacob Minkoff and Taylor Kurosaki, both notable names at the Californian company, will assume the design director and narrative director positions...
News No Man's Sky Will Fly to Other Formats After PS4
Planet hopper
You didn’t think that No Man’s Sky, the seemingly limitless space exploration game from British indie Hello Games, was going to stay moored on the PlayStation 4 forever, did you? Despite being strongly associated with Sony’s next-gen system, the company’s director Sean Murray has hinted that the release will be free to fly...
Review Don't Starve: Reign of Giants (PlayStation 4)
The hungrier game
Don’t Starve: Reign of Giants isn’t your typical downloadable content offering. With the roguelike survival game Don’t Starve, it’s not as straightforward as getting a unique story as seen in BioShock Infinite’s Burial at Sea: Episode 2, or as simple as additional modes and weapons like in The Last of Us’ Grounded...
Review Trials Fusion: Riders of the Rustlands (PlayStation 4)
Feeling rusty
Trials Fusion was one of the must-have games on the PlayStation 4 when it came out, and its first batch of downloadable content should be something of an event for the million or so people who invested in it. However, what could have been an exciting new set of levels ends up being underwhelming, spinning its wheels over a set of ideas...
News Fascinating Indie Teslagrad Will Fetch a Fancy Physical Release on PS4, PS3, and Vita
Electrifying stuff
It's not often that you hear of an indie game getting a physical release, but that's exactly what's happening with Rain Games' Teslagrad. Speaking on its official Facebook account, the developer stated that it's teamed up with SOEDESCO Benelux in order to bring a boxed copy of the title to store shelves. What's more, the studio...
News Plenty of PS4 Discounts Coming to Europe Next Week
More than 25 titles getting reduced
In truth, the first round of the European PlayStation Store’s highly publicised Summer Sale is somewhat disappointing. Yes, there are a few deals worthy of note, but the whole promotion is bloated with games that have been discounted dozens of times before. Don’t lose hope just yet, though, as a bunch of...
News Watch Dead Island 2 Decay at GamesCom 2014 This Month
Hell on Earth
German convention GamesCom is scarily close, which means that the Push Square office is all of a flutter right now. One thing that’s improved our mood, however, is news that Dead Island 2 is set to infect the Cologne show later this month. The sequel will be playable at the expo, which actually marks the first time that local gamers...
News Seize Your Moment with the PlayStation Now Open Beta
The time is now
Since its announcement at the start of the year, anticipation has definitely cooled on PlayStation Now. The forward thinking service still sounds exciting on paper, but with the on-demand platform not rolling out in Europe until next year, and prices being a little on the high side, a few question marks have been placed next to the...

Rumour Will Watch Dogs' Newest DLC See You Hacking the Streets of New Jersey?
One to watch
If you feel like your square button hasn't been seeing enough love since you finished open world hack-'em-up Watch Dogs, never fear, as recent tweets from the title's official Twitter account suggest that it may be getting some new DLC. Intriguingly, the messages imply that the downloable extras may be set in an entirely separate city...
News OneChanbara Z2: Chaos Sure Isn't the Shyest Game on PS4
Not exactly backward in coming forward
The first trailer for upcoming PlayStation 4 zombie slayer OneChanbara Z2: Chaos doesn’t serve up too many surprises, as it appears to be just as outrageous as previous instalments. Once again, you’ll play as a scantily clad samurai, carving through Satan’s spawn in swimwear. This version seems to boast...
News Survive the Summer with Scorching European PS4, PS3, and Vita Savings
Sweat shop
Sony seems fairly fond of gigantic cross-platform sales these days, and this latest summer offering looks set to turn up the temperature yet again. While not exactly loaded with hot deals, there are some worthwhile savings within this list that will likely tempt you into parting with your hard-earned cash. Alas, you’ll probably want to...
News The Stealthy CounterSpy Infiltrates All PlayStation Consoles Next Month
No box included
We love release dates here at Push Square, and even more so when they sneak up behind us without warning. Dynamighty's CounterSpy passes all of its stealth checks, as its arrival has crept up on us like a particularly efficient spy. Blending together gun-toting action along with tactical espionage, this side-scroller will arrive on...
News Will the PS4 Get a Price Cut Any Time Soon?
Probably not just yet
As we know, the PlayStation 4 is selling extraordinarily well – but things are even more positive for Sony behind closed doors. Last year, the platform holder noted that it had designed its next-gen device to be much more price competitive than the PlayStation 3, and it sounds like it’s feeling the fruits of that labour...
News PlayStation Hardware Sales Leave Xbox in the Dust
PS4 reverses firm's fortunes
It’s no real secret that the PlayStation 4 is a runaway success, and that’s been reflected by Sony’s latest hardware sales figures.

Feature What Are August 2014's Free PlayStation Plus Games?
Instant additions to your backlog
Every month we get asked by slightly less informed gamers which free titles are coming to PlayStation Plus on the PlayStation 4, PlayStation 3, and Vita, so we’ve decided to do something about it. From now on, you’ll find an editorial rundown of the latest Instant Game Collection giveaways posted in this format,...
News PS4's Homefront: The Revolution Development to Be Finished by Dambuster Studio
Deep Silver digs deep to acquire cursed brand
We’re not entirely sure why anyone would want to own the Homefront franchise at this point, as in addition to being a property with very little to differentiate itself from the wealth of other modern military brands on the market, it also appears to carry a curse. After killing off THQ a couple of...
Store Update 30th July 2014 (Europe)
Big break
Make no mistake: The Last of Us Remastered is the big new addition to the European PlayStation Store this week. Alas, we’re running out of Joel and Ellie flavoured thumbnail images at this point, so we figured that we better rack up a Pure Pool picture instead. Chalk it up to variety. Sorry. PlayStation 4: Pure Pool Price: £

As promised, Sony has revealed the selection of free PlayStation Plus titles that will be gracing your PlayStation 4, PlayStation 3, and Vita in August.

Talking Point Would You Pay for an EA Access Subscription on PS4?
In the game
Whether you like it or not, gaming is gradually becoming much more service driven. The wheels have been in motion for a while, with Season Passes and long-tail downloadable content business models designed to keep you spending more on a single game for longer. However, the announcement of EA Access overnight – a PlayStation Plus-esque...
News More People Participated in the Destiny Beta Than You Can Possibly Imagine
Intergalactic anticipation
Bungie made it incredibly easy to participate in the Destiny beta, suggesting that it was perhaps as much a marketing tool as it was a server stress test. A single pre-order netted you three codes to share with friends, while the whole thing opened up to everybody towards the end. Still, if you’re asking people to...
News EA Access Exclusive to Xbox One as It Doesn't Represent 'Good Value' for PS4 Owners
Sony comes out swinging
We don’t think that Sony and EA Games are on the best of terms. After the latter promised an unprecedented partnership [Haha – Ed] with Microsoft for the launch of the Xbox One, we’ve always got a sense that relations are a little, well, strained. And a statement from the platform holder regarding the mega publisher’s...
News Switched Systems? Transfer Your Diablo III Progress from 360 to PS4
Ultimate evil
There’s a bit of a ruthless streak about Sony at the minute. The manufacturer appears to realise that it’s converted ex-Xbox 360 owners to its next-gen machine, and so it’s offering a variety of sweeteners in order to aid that transition. The latest of these is the promise that you’ll be able to bring your progress from Diablo...
News Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare Pushes the Power of the PS4
Cloud Atlas
We’re so used to Call of Duty games looking a little, er, flat that Sledgehammer Games’ upcoming solo series debut is blowing our brains a little bit. While previous outing Call of Duty: Ghosts was available on the PlayStation 4, it merely represented an up-ressed PlayStation 3 title – whereas this latest entry looks next-gen all...
News The Last of Us Originally Had an Epilogue That You'll Never Get to See
Parting number
The audience at the incredibly self-indulgent – but dare we say deserved – The Last of Us: One Night Live stage show were treated to an extra special scene last night that didn’t even make it into the online stream. The epilogue – which was written by creative director Neil Druckmann – ultimately got cut from the game, but...

After all we've been through
It perhaps won’t surprise you to learn that The Last of Us Remastered represents the biggest addition to the PlayStation Store this week. The title’s launching alongside a list of multiplayer add-ons longer than heroine Ellie’s entire body, so get ready to spend a little extra if you like cosmetic competitive...
News Dust Off Your Rust in New Trials Fusion DLC for PlayStation 4
On your bike
You may have forgotten how to feather the throttle in PlayStation 4 motorbike simulation Trials Fusion, but the release’s inaugural expansion pack is on hand to get you back up to speed.

News August PlayStation Plus Leaked Lineup Dismissed by Devs
Wrong, wrong, wrong
Don’t believe everything that you read on the web.

The site claimed – citing a Russian source – that the goodies in Europe...
News PS4's SHAREfactory Pumps Out Free The Last of Us Content This Week
Capture the chaos
Earlier in the year, we hypothesised that SHAREfactory – the PlayStation 4’s onboard video editing suite – could become a bit of a cash cow for Sony; instead, the platform holder’s been updating it for free. And another major overhaul is due out this week in order to celebrate the release of The Last of Us Remastered, with...

Blame it on the boogie
We’ve said a lot about Destiny on the PlayStation 4. There are some things that we love about the game, and some things that we’re not so keen on.

Live Watch The Last of Us: One Night Live Stage Show Right Here
This is actually happening
Will any other re-release ever get as much hype as The Last of Us Remastered? We suppose that we’ll find out when Grand Theft Auto V hits the PlayStation 4 later this year – but we can’t exactly picture Michael, Franklin, and Trevor treading the boards in a Santa Monica theatre. Alas, that’s exactly what the cast...
News The Cast of The Last of Us Look Back on a Crazy Year
The final countdown
The Last of Us has quickly become one of the most important properties on PlayStation, with arguably only Gran Turismo ahead of it in the exclusives pecking order.

Review Rogue Legacy (PlayStation 4)
Castle smashers
There are plenty of brutal indies that'll put your dexterity to the test on Sony platforms. The likes of Spelunky and Cloudberry Kingdom represent a somewhat niche, but addictive genre.

After several seriously slow editions of ‘Out This Week’, the PlayStation Nation seems ready to shake away its summer malaise.
