News PSVR's Beat Saber Is About to Get a Lot More WubWub
Sliding in
Ultra-satisfying PSVR rhythm game Beat Saber continues to expand and improve, and these new sliding block types have us practically salivating at the prospect of smashing them.

News Hyper Scape, Ubisoft's Battle Royale Flop, Is Being Switched Off
RIP
Who remembers Hyper Scape? None of you? Really? It’s perhaps telling that the biggest splash this game made is when its community manager went on a Twitter tirade. Anyway, the title’s nearing the end of its life, as Ubisoft unceremoniously pulls the plug on the project. “We have made the difficult decision to end development of Hyper Scape...
News Mortal Kombat 12 Seemingly Confirmed in Staged Social Media Snap
It's a setup
An obviously staged social media photo uploaded – and swiftly deleted – by NetherRealm Studios’ senior production manager Jonathan Andersen has seemingly confirmed Mortal Kombat 12, although it’s possible the developer may just be playing with its fans. The image, which focuses primarily on some artwork, includes the corner of a...
News Horizon Forbidden West Looks Ridiculous Even on PS4 Pro
Wizards
Guerrilla has always been a tech powerhouse, but we’re genuinely flabbergasted by this first official footage of Horizon Forbidden West running on a PS4 Pro. Sony has, irritatingly, opted to present it as a series of small GIF-like video clips on the PS Blog, but we've embedded one of them above. In short, though, they’re super...
Reaction We Need to Talk About Tiny Tina on PS Plus
Dragon weep
The reaction to PS Plus ebbs-and-flows depending on the lineup. For example, the vast majority of subscribers were pretty happy with Deep Rock Galactic, DIRT 5, and Persona 5 Strikers last month – all decent, recommended games. The response to February 2022’s PS Plus lineup, with UFC 4 and
News Wrestling Battle Royale Rumbleverse Has Been Delayed Indefinitely on PS5, PS4
Giving it the people's elbow
Iron Galaxy’s brawler-themed Battle Royale Rumbleverse was due to release officially on 15th February, ahead of an Early Access period from 8th February – but it’s been delayed indefinitely.

Drive of your life
It’s a really busy few weeks for PlayStation – which is great for us – and that means we’re getting lots of media of upcoming games.

News Horizon Forbidden West Makes Plenty of Quality of Life Improvements Over the Original
Removing Zero Dawn's headaches
It's looking like Horizon Forbidden West will be a sequel that builds upon what the first game achieved and improves the experience with lots of small (and large) tweaks. Horizon Zero Dawn was a fantastic first attempt at an open world action RPG from Guerrilla Games, but the second game seems to be making some much...
News Sony's PS Plus, PS Now Cross-Gen Bullsh*t Continues
Sort it out
There are things that are occurring in the PlayStation Nation that Sony has little control over. For example, the Japanese giant can do little if Microsoft decides to drop near-$70 billion at Bobby Kotick’s doorstep in order to buy Activision Blizzard. There are other instances where the platform holder can do better, however – and...

Si-phew
After some gasp-inducing PlayStation 5 first-party file sizes, you may be reassured to learn that Sifu will be fairly small.

It’s possible other title updates may bloat...
News Unsurprisingly, Life Is Strange PS4's Remaster for PS4 Looks Familiar
A remaster for the same system
What do you get when you remaster a game for the same console? Life Is Strange Remastered Collection, apparently. You may remember that Life Is Strange originally launched for the PlayStation 4 earlier in the generation, and it’s being remastered for, well, the PS4 as part of this re-release. The changes are subtle,...
News Horizon Forbidden West Is Reportedly 'About as Long' as Horizon Zero Dawn
So, fairly long, then
How many hours does it take to beat Horizon Forbidden West? While we don't have a definitive answer to that question, we now have a pretty big clue as to how long we can expect the sequel to be. German site GamePro managed to glean some information about Aloy's upcoming adventure from game director Mathijs de Jonge, including a...

News Call of Duty Will Seemingly Continue to Release on PS5, PS4 Through 2023
Three new games planned for Sony systems
If you’re a Call of Duty fan that prefers to play on PlayStation 5 or PS4, then Activision Blizzard’s sale to Microsoft will seemingly not affect you in the short-term. As has been speculated – and alluded to by Sony itself – the franchise may continue to exist on PlayStation until at least the end of...
News Apex Legends Is Giving Away Heroes for Free Through February on PS4

News New OlliOlli World Trailer Will Have You Pining for an Animated Series
Time for an adventure
The art style in OlliOlli World feels clearly inspired by modern cartoons, so for its latest trailer, publisher Private Division has turned it into one. Embedded above is the new cinematic trailer for the side-scrolling skateboarding game, and it's fantastic. The video really sets the tone for the game, showing off the wide...
Modified to augment ranged combat
Well, we all expected it really, didn’t we? The best armour in Horizon Zero Dawn was the Shield Weaver, which practically made Aloy unstoppable in combat. While you had to work through a number of side-quests to collect it, the souped-up threads effectively engulfed the protagonist in an impenetrable energy...
News Sniper Elite 5 Teases Online Invasion Mode in Glossy PS5, PS4 Trailer
Hunt the hunter
Sniper Elite 5 promises the same long-distance thrills that you’ve no doubt become accustomed to over the years, with one major twist: your game can be invaded by an Axis sniper. This means that while you’re busy picking off Nazis as protagonist Karl Fairburne, there’s a chance you may be outwitted by an opponent who’s joined...

What are the February 2022 PS Plus games for PS5 and PS4 and when will the February 2022 PS Plus games be announced?

News PS4 Trophies Bugged Out with PS3 Labels and People Are Jumping to Conclusions Again
It was just a glitch
As the ol’ saying goes: aw sh*t, here we go again!

Some fans noticed overnight that their PlayStation 4...

News Watch Some Brand New Horizon Forbidden West Footage In IGN's Hands-On Preview
Less than a month to go
Horizon Forbidden West is quietly on the approach, launching for both PlayStation 5 and PS4 on 18th February.

That being said, IGN has just shared a hands-on preview...
Random Fall Guys Is Now Available in Monopoly Form
Battle royale platformer gets board game treatment
Two games we thought were quite far away from each other were Fall Guys and Monopoly, but that's not stopped a crossover from happening anyway. Mediatonic's bean-filled multiplayer game has been popular since its explosive PlayStation Plus launch in 2020, and now, it's looking to dominate the...
Jacking in
Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin remains something of an enigma. We've known about the action RPG for ages, but between it being an alternate timeline origin story for the first Final Fantasy, the modern main characters, and all of the inescapable "Chaos!" memes, we've been dying to get some insight into what is one of Square...

News Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Is So PS2 It Hurts
My way or the highway
Frank Sinatra’s My Way is a Final Fantasy song now, and you’ve got Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin to thank for that.

All you need is a save file stored on...

News Capcom's Resident Evil 7: Biohazard Is Now Five Years Old
Baker boo
Incredibly, it’s been five years since Resident Evil 7: Biohazard released on the PlayStation 4.

But just one conclusion
While you will have to field some “very strong” moral choices during your time with Horizon Forbidden West, the decisions you make will all culminate in a single “impactful” ending. That means, unlike most modern RPGs, there are not multiple endings to uncover – just the one, canon conclusion. We suspect said...

News Ubisoft Pulls the Plug on Watch Dogs Legion PS5, PS4 Updates
Bollocks
Ubisoft’s post-release support for many of its games is spectacular, but the French publisher has pulled the plug on Watch Dogs Legion. While it has delivered all of the add-ons and extras it promised prior to release, we do get the sense that if the title had performed better, it may have committed more support to the release. As it is,...

Review Rainbow Six: Extraction (PS5) – Limited Time Event Turned Middling Co-Op Shooter
Live die repeat
The Outbreak event in Rainbow Six: Siege all the way back in 2018 was a ton of fun. It presented the tactical shooter in a new light, offering something different to players that might have wanted a more fulfilling PvE experience than the tepid “terrorist hunt” offering in the base game. Ubisoft clearly felt there was enough...
