PS5 News

You know it’s been a good week in gaming news when you hit the weekend not knowing entirely where to start. PlayStation have put up their prices, Nintendo and Microsoft haven’t, and Amazon were buying EA (before they weren’t). That’s before we mention the now-finished sale of Square Enix’s western studios to Embracer, the Japanese call against PlayStation exclusivity and all this one a week that started with Sony being sued. And all of this has been set against the…

It might not happen often, but I really do enjoy when companies release complete editions of their games that include all the previously released DLC. Today, Outright Games - the company famous for kid friendly experiences that just take a few hours - has launched two brand new Complete Editions for fans to enjoy - My Friend Peppa Pig and PJ Masks: Heroes of the Night.

Tiger Woods is back as the poster boy for PGA Tour 2K23, but this time with a bit of an extended role in the game’s development. This time he is also acting as Executive Director to advise the game’s development team, and now you can be Michael Jordan? Woods leads a roster of more than 14 male and female pros at launch, including Justin Thomas, Lexi Thompson, Tony Finau, Lydia Ko, Collin Morikawa, Will Zalatoris, Brooke Henderson and more. Players…

Sony is being sued for taking 30 percent of each sale of its digital stores. What does that mean for the media giant – and what does it mean for consumers? News of this – originally from Sky – has been met with a giant collective question mark on the internet. But is there anything to it? The reality is that if this is successful, it could have wide-ranging implications across the industry. But that if is doing a lot…

We’re another step closer to Microsoft’s acquisition of Activision after Saudi Arabia regulators pushed the deal through. And while that might seem like a small step in the grand scheme of things, it is the first of a raft of approvals that are likely to arrive in the coming weeks. Microsoft announced back in January that it would be buying the Call of Duty publisher. Internally, Activision staff were told it could take until this financial year to polish off…

It was 15 years ago that we first visited Rapture in Bioshock. That’s right – check for grey hairs. Since then we’ve visited Rapture three more times – and also discovered a city in the sky. But it’s been nearly 10 years since Infinite hit Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. And while we know there’s a new Bioshock game coming, we don’t really know anything about it. Well, what better time to turn that around than on an anniversary? And…

PlayStation has launched a new website for its games on PC. And while this isn’t a new initiative, it’s fantastic to see another console company getting all-in on PC. Maybe all-in isn’t the right wording. They’re not bringing things out day one, but that’s going to change, and probably in the near future. PC-only gamers aren’t going to rush to PlayStation 5, but they’ll happily hand over their money if you give them a good port. Hell, even if you…

The console wars up to this point have just been a rehearsal. If you thought the endless lists of the 360/PS3 era were brutal, you’re going to need to sit down for the upcoming subscription wars. And this isn’t just losers on Twitter – things are heating up between Microsoft and Sony too. You may recall a few weeks ago I wrote about Sony’s concerns about Game Pass, published in a document related to the Activision purchase. Microsoft have responded,…

As a HUGE fan of Red Hood, I’ve been excited for Gotham Knights since it was first unveiled. Today Warner Bros. finally is highlighting some gameplay for the crimson menace himself. The video features all-new gameplay and custom cutscenes of Red Hood, also known as Jason Todd. An intense vigilante with a short fuse, Red Hood is a highly trained marksman and hard-hitting, hand-to-hand fighter who’s reached the peak of human strength, making him an expert in both ranged and…
