Review Batman: Arkham VR (PS4)
Behind the mask
Rocksteady's never been shy depicting Batman as the mentally deranged individual that he so clearly is, and with the British studio back on development duties for this short virtual reality story, it's Bruce Wayne's busted psyche that once again takes centre stage. Batman: Arkham VR may only take you about an hour to see through, but...
Video Watch Us Become the Batman with PlayStation VR
Caped crusader
Batman: Arkham VR very much falls under the "experience" category rather than a full-fledged game, but how much would you pay to be the Dark Knight for an hour? Well, developer Rocksteady's charging $19.99/£15.99 for this, which certainly looks steep on the surface, but it's by far one of the best examples of virtual reality so far...
Rumour LEGO Harry Potter Collection to Earn Five Points for PS4
You're a remaster, 'Arry
Assassin's Creed Ezio Collection isn't the only PlayStation 4 remaster to leak on a ratings board today: LEGO Harry Potter Collection was also listed for Sony's new-gen system in Brazil.

Quinn-tessential
It wouldn't be a gaming convention without some new Injustice 2 announcements, and fortunately Warner Bros has rocked up right on time to reveal that Suicide Squad's Harley Quinn and Deadshot will be joining the release's roster. The former looks especially fun to play, as she uses a combination of her hammer and attack dogs to do...

News Oh Right, Sonic the Hedgehog's Spin-Dashing LEGO Dimensions
Put a ring on it
Considerably less exciting than the upcoming Sonic Mania, it's been confirmed after months of rumours and teasing that Sonic the Hedgehog will be joining the roster of Warner Bros' increasingly weird licensed love-in, LEGO Dimensions. The blue blur will be available as part of a level pack which will allow you to speed through some...

News The Witcher III Will Get a PS4 Game of the Year Edition Deserving of Its Name
Triss-tastic
We didn't vote The Witcher III: Wild Hunt as our Game of the Year – that coveted accolade went to the unbelievably good Bloodborne – but it came mighty close. We're also comfortable admitting that we were in the minority – the last we read, over 240 individual publications had awarded CD Projekt Red's fantasy epic their top gong...
News Batman: Return to Arkham Delayed on PS4
No Batusi just yet
Warner Bros. has delayed Batman: Return to Arkham a month before its original 29th July release date, with no sign of a new launch window.

Superheroes smash each others' faces in next year
Surprise: Injustice 2 is bringing burly comic book characters to the PlayStation 4 in 2017. The game – which leaked yesterday – promises to offer "all of the things that you'd expect from a sequel". That, of course, includes new fighters and environments, but Mortal Kombat developer NetherRealm...
Rumour Batman and The Flash Face Off in Leaked Injustice 2 Art
Immortal kombat
Remember the rumour about Injustice 2? Looks like this is your very first, blurry, potato-cam look at the title. In an age of uber-expensive smartphones, the Vaseline smeared shot has thrown us off, but this appears to be original artwork – and, let's be honest, the game is guaranteed to be in development, isn't it? The character...
Rumour Batman, Superman to Brawl in Injustice 2 on PS4
Clash of the titans
We try not to run unsourced stories here at Push Square, but this one's more obvious than the Box Office eventually milking every comic book character dry: Injustice 2 is in development and is about to be announced. The rumour comes courtesy of a French site's "inside sources" – but let's be realistic, it's obviousl

Baseball bats at the ready
Polish studio Techland is likely working on a sequel to Dying Light, its incredibly popular open world undead-'em-up which launched in January last year.

News LEGO Star Wars: The Force Awakens Gets a New Gameplay Trailer
Can't wait until it's Finn-ished
The LEGO games have become a little stagnant as of late, adding more content, yet not many mechanics. By the looks of its new gameplay trailer, though, LEGO Star Wars: The Force Awakens looks to change that. There's plenty of new gameplay features, most notably a new space battle mode, where you'll be able to fly...
Review Dying Light: The Following (PS4)
Not that sort of buggy
Released a little over a year ago, Dying Light turned out to be a satisfyingly brutal zombie murder sim that eschewed a lot of what you expect from such titles. By making speed and evasion stronger weapons than any of the sharp objects that you acquired, when you were stuck at ground level you couldn't help but feel incredibly...

If you've played DC Universe Online recently then, you'll know that something has been missing: the players.

Sony's formats feeling the force
Just to follow up this morning's story: LEGO Star Wars: The Force Awakens is real, it's coming out on 28th June, and it will sell better than a woolly jumper on Hoth.

News LEGO Star Wars: The Force Awakens Becomes the Most Predictable Crossover Ever
Milk me BB one more time
Anyone else getting really tired of these LEGO games? Our understanding is that they sell exceptionally well, but gamers rag on Call of Duty's annual release schedule – when there tends to be three or four Mega Bloks-esque escapades crammed into a 12 month period. LEGO Star Wars: The Force Awakens is the latest to roll out...

Soapbox Why I Don't Hate The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt Anymore
Bitchin' witchin'
I stopped playing The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt on 6th June, swore off it for life, told colleague Robert Ramsey that he'd Made_A_Huge_Mistake.gif awarding it a 10/10, and spent the following six months ridiculing everyone for liking a game in which following a floating foetus is widely regarded as its best bit. I was wrong. Y'see,...
News The Witcher 3 PS4 Patch 1.12 Is Out Now
It's fixing time
Hey, it's been quite a while since we've done one of these, eh? There's a brand new update out for The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt on PlayStation 4, which weighs in at about 1.5GB. Good job there's a decimal point in there. Truth be told, there's no reason to get really excited for this one - patch 1.12 is stuffed with specific fixes and...
Soapbox Why Mad Max Is a Hugely Overlooked Game
Sam Brooke on a world gone mad
Mad Max didn't really make any Game of the Year lists, yet I feel that it's been hugely overlooked, and that it has plenty to offer. The game, on paper, should've just been another boring Ubisoft open-worlder: camps to infiltrate, viewpoints to climb up to and survey, skill trees, upgrades, and all the usual stuff...

Who's ready for Geralt of Rivia's final adventure, then?

A trailer for the brawler's second Season Pass has leaked ahead of The Game Awards, revealing that The Texas Chainsaw Massacre's...

News New The Witcher 3 Trailer Reminds Us Why It's a Game of the Year Contender
Bewitched
'Epic' is a word that gets thrown around a lot these days - often rather carelessly - but we reckon that The Witcher 3 Wild Hunt's new 'Epic Trailer' sort of deserves to use it. In what appears to be a bid to make everyone remember that it's arguably one of the best titles of 2015, the video is a montage of many memorable moments from...
News The Witcher 3 Sweeps Golden Joystick Awards 2015
Ultimate Game of the Year, apparently
Geralt will be wearing a rather wry smile right now as The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt pretty much dominated this year's Golden Joystick Awards.

News Follow the Dying Light with Dirt Buggy DLC in 2016
Car-nage
Want to know what was a good game? Dying Light. Techland's zombie slayer launched so early in the year that it's likely to be overlooked when the end of 2015 awards roll around, but we reckon that it's up there with some of the best titles that we've played over the past 12 months. And subsequently we're quite looking forward to The...
News Used a Money Exploit in The Witcher 3? The New Expansion Will Find You Out
Geralt's greatest foe?

Brick in the wallet
LEGO has been a popular children's toy for many years, and we'll happily admit that we still play with it on the odd occasion because, ahem, we have younger relatives.

Wow, these patches just seem to get bigger and bigger, don't they?

Ever-reliable CD Projekt Red community lead Marcin Momot has stated on...

PS4 performance improvements incoming
Good lord, we don't even want to think about how much time and effort was put into creating this frankly ridiculous update for The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt. Instead of posting the patch notes on the game's official forums as per usual, the developer has instead provided a link to a 13-page PDF - which says it all,...
News The Witcher 3 Hearts of Stone Expansion Trailer Sets a Dark and Dangerous Mood
Back to the hunt
Hearts of Stone is going to be one heck of a fun ride if its official trailer is anything to go by.

It's even got its own music
Earlier this week, a brand new The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt PlayStation 4 theme launched on the PlayStation Store, but its arrival passed us by almost entirely.
