@Ichiban I was coming here to say the same, a DB port gets love but not Sand Land. Should be the potentially the second biggest release of the month after Stellar Blade

Playing it now, enjoying the ubisoft box ticking aspect. Game is a solid 7, sometimes reaches an 8 but still voted a 7. Game lacks polish and can be very outdated and ugly occasionally, gameplay is good though. I can't help but be reminded of Shinbido 2 on the Vita all the time while playing it

For me, still seems completely unnecessary, i haven't seen a game this gen that has blown my socks off, 3-4 years in the PS4 gen and things were cranking, i haven't seen anything on PS5 that is on par with TLOU2(except the remaster). The fact we are still getting cross gen games and the Series S being underpowered might be holding things back

I put an 8, but thats based on the time i spent with the demo, which i did quite a bit. Enjoyed what i played, but unfortunately no time to play it currently, maybe later in the year

I haven't played this and probably won't, but they seem to be doing gaas right, seems very cool how they're introducing new Factions, enemies and mechs etc...Hope they've got enough of this content for a few years

Would love to see Sony doing acquisitions in Korea, seems to be a real hotbed of developers there currently

@Nowings was released less than 2 months ago so no way its coming to PS plus anytime soon

Oh man, I remember that I had the Remake limited edition pre ordered and then we went to lockdown, we got deliveries and i had to wait more than over a month to play, that sucked, was very tempted to double dip.

I've watched the leaked footage on YouTube, it looks a bit cringe. Typical live service cartoony art style

Hoping for that Rise of the Ronin demo

They make alot of lackluster games, for every Tekken, there's a Jujutsu Kaisen. So many niche titles with very few having mainstream success

@Americansamurai1 Thats because Sony is lining its remakes and remasters up with their movie/tv productions. They want people to watch the show, then head down, buy a PS5 and a shiny new copy of the last of us

@ATaco

And why not?? Square Enix gives Playstation special treatment by putting their biggest games on the platform exclusively, you scratch my back i'll scratch yours scenario. Hogwarts also got its own state of play

Yes and no, my most anticipated game in years. I've seen too much but will still watch

8 was a great game, I think I prefer 7 though as it was more of a celebration of the series and dripping in nostalgia

Does this basically confirm that the next Naughty Dog game will be the original IP. That would be awesome, it’s been over 10 years since they did something new

100% if Death Stranding 2 is 2025, then this could possibly be 2029/30, surely we will be gaming on ps6 by then

You forgot the brilliant Silent Hill Ascension, which was also a really bad product. Silent Hill 2 looked rough, not setting a great precedent for the future of the series

Wow, was thinking about the studio yesterday and how it must be close to announcing a 4th title. Guess not now. Square Enix only has 4 development studios now and Taito, are they streamlining for a acquisition

@PsBoxSwitchOwner

Potentially but might be too soon as its a 2025 release

Id imagine all the leaks will come true as its from a reputable leaker. As for other titles, there's a few things still left on the table from past SOP's, where Braid anniversary, Little Devil inside, Synduality? We might see some launch trailers for Foamstars or Pacific Drive? Capcom usually turns up, so time for Pragmata?

I just hope there's a big surprise or 2, but honestly with what's leaked its already looking like the best SOP ever

How is warner bros so dominant??

1. Hogwarts Legacy
5. Mortal Kombat 1
8. Mortal Kombat 11 Ultimate
9. LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga

I doubt Suicide squad will have a tail as long as these games

@StylesT well when they started in 2015/16 the gaming world was a different place, live service games weren't the behemoth they are now

@AFCC

Nah will still be linear, happy it will have more nooks and crannies to explore though

PlayStation is publishing a huge amount this year, TLOU2R, Helldivers 2, MLB 24, Lost Soul Aside, Rise of the Ronin, Stellar Blade, Concord, Convallria, maybe Spiderman 2 DLC.
Most of these titles we know nothing of really, no marketing, no hype, just trailers that go for a couple of minutes.

2024 I would like them to be more transparent, I know games are taking longer to develop, and the pull to live service has delayed some studios, but I would still like to know what they're cooking, a big showcase is needed (pretend the 2023 one didn't happen).

I like what microsoft is doing with the developers direct, something like that would be appreciated, where we get a deep dive into 4-5 games.

Hopefully the new CEO will take it in a better direction

Was a good game, plenty of room for improvement though, i look forward to doing year 6 in the sequel

Obviously this must be my favourite genre. There’s heaps of big 2023 titles I haven’t played, but I’ve played all of these, even have the plat for 4 of them. SM 2 is the winner for me

I got 14 right! I would have thought Death Stranding 2 was a shoe in and Elder Ring dlc as well. And can’t believe no muttered a single mention of GTA.

Started off strong, but that last 60-90mins dragged so much

So lets say November 2025, only 2 years! Wonder if this will be beat Dreadwolf out the gate

Guess it will launch under the Playstation Studios banner like Rise of the Ronin

A Astro's Playroom sized sequel to this would be a great addition to the PS5 library

I'm seeing a lot of hate for this month, but for me its ones of the better lineups. I'm having a lot of fun with teardown, and for the nostalgia ill play Klonoa(only ever played the PS1 demo) Jet Moto and maybe Grandia if they include trophy support.

Also Superliminal looks up my alley, so for me 8/10 month

Its a great game, still feel GoW 18 was better, when TLoU launched on PS3 and I played it I don't think anything's come close to that experience so thats still my favourite. I prefer Horizon and Uncharted to the GoW series as well

Feel sorry for the developers, obviously the leaders of these development studios saw the embracer $$ and signed up, it was always going to collapse as nothing worthwhile has come out of any of these embracer group acquisitions, you need money coming in to support this spending and I don't think they've had one big hit yet and unfortunately the employees on the bottom rungs are the ones affected

That's a shame, I'm apart of a trophy community on twitter and we all share direct from PlayStation to x our recent platinum's and milestones.

X(twitter) is getting worse anyway, its becoming very hateful and full of propaganda every minute

That's because we will see some DLC, Miles Morales 2 and potentially a silk spinoff where Miles will be the main.I guarantee with Green Goblin as the main antagonist in 3 Peter Parker will step out of retirement and be the leading Spider-Man again

Cait SIth and Red XIII synergy here we come

@BlaizeV

haven't thought about this before, would suck if scalpers get it as i imagine supply would be limited?

Switch 2 confirmed for mid year, the rumors' said Remake was running on it to the same standard as PS5

@Logonogo it feels like every major event had a trailer for it, the game looked a bit dated so i don't think it hit anyone's radar

Warner Bros is the real winner here, they must be making alot of bank off Hogwarts, MK and LSW!

@DKShadow

Congrats on the plat, how did you do 25 moon bounces? I’m lucky if I do 6-7?

Warner bros is winning here, Hogwarts, MK11 and LSW:TSS

@Splat

Yeah its why i have zero hype for this game. I was a massive GTA fan back in the day, IV derailed it a bit, V's single player was great but they've milked that online for 10 years now and i feel like the single player in VI might take the backseat like CoD singleplayer campaigns

Far better than I thought it would be, 4 episodes down and looking forward to watching the rest

I thought they were skipping 2023 for COD because they weren't going to have a game ready, sounds like they've just rushed something out

Sounds very promising, hopefully they can pull it off with a 2024 release

This game keeps sounding like a win for old school AC fans, fingers crossed

Yep, I'm a trophy hunter and in the trophy hunting community and my twitter feed is everyone popping the plat, its crazy how popular it is and how many people are exploiting it
