News Hitman Season 1 Content Will Be Playable in Hitman 2
Two for one?
We're big fans of Hitman on PS4, and Hitman 2 is looking like a promising sequel. Something we didn't expect to see is this latest news regarding the upcoming game: not only will it have a full suite of new missions to enjoy, but all the levels and missions from the first game will be present and correct. That's right, Hitman Season 1...
News Hitman 2 Highlights Its Living, Breathing Sandbox
Miami vice
The best thing about Hitman is its huge sandbox levels, and fortunately this year’s sequel will continue that trend.

Depending upon the actions that you take, you’ll alter the outcome of the...

Review LEGO The Incredibles (PS4)
No capes
The licensed LEGO games have covered plenty of cinematic ground - especially if you include the now defunct LEGO Dimensions line - and at this point they’ve become a bit of a video game institution. While you’d think the well would’ve run dry over the last decade or so, the arrival of LEGO The Incredibles, to coincide with the release...
Rumour Hitman 2 Level Locations Leaked
Murder map
Part of what made IO Interactive's previous Hitman title so compelling was its mission locations. The episodic assassination adventure saw Agent 47 traveling the globe in order to carry out his contracts, providing a nice variety of environments to explore. If a recent leak is to be believed, Hitman 2 is set to feature a similarly diverse...

News Hitman 2 Leaked Ahead of Pre-E3 2018 Reveal
Sloppy work, Agent 47
Like a Hitman mission that goes horribly awry, Agent 47 has fluffed his lines here. Danish developer IO Interactive hinted at Hitman news earlier today, with publishing partner Warner Bros promptly following up with a video clip of an F1 race track. It seems both parties have been teasing Hitman 2, as t
News Warner Bros Dons Its Overalls for New Announcement
Is Agent 47 heading to the races?
Yes, readers – E3 2018 is very much around the corner. The social media teasing never ends, and now it’s the turn of Warner Bros to take to Twitter with vague promises. The short video clip shows what appears to be some kind of racing game, but we reckon this may be a bait-and-switch and actually related to the...

Review Scribblenauts Showdown (PS4)
Sketchy
Perhaps surprisingly, Scribblenauts Showdown is the first title in the series to make its way to PlayStation. In a way, this is great news; Scribblenauts is a fun, creative franchise that encourages imaginative thinking, and it's always good to have more kid-friendly games on PlayStation 4. However, while Showdown retains the charm,...

Elves 'n' that
Hey, remember Middle-earth: Shadow of War? The action title garnered a lot of critical praise when it launched in October last year, but it felt like it never really retained any momentum. By the time Game of the Year talk rolled around, it was all but forgotten by most. We suppose it's fortunate then that its first story expansion,...

Hands On Justice League VR Is One of the Worst PSVR Experiences So Far
Flash in the pan
With a Rotten Tomatoes rating of 41 per cent, Justice League has divided opinion.

Essentially a minigame compilation a tier below the kind of shovelware...

Review LEGO Marvel Super Heroes 2 (PS4)
Loki alright
With Marvel releasing films almost weekly, it feels like the superhero craze of the last decade is starting to reach critical mass.
