There's been an absence of serious stories revolving around samurai, and I so desperately want that gap to be filled by a game that not only features a gripping narrative, beautiful Japanese visuals, and bloody yet oh-so-satisfying combat, but one that also gives us a more personal look at the virtues and mentality of the soldiers during this riveting time in the country's long history. We've already seen small glimpses hinting at all of these things in the game's reveal trailer . I was initially more than apprehensive thinking about a Western developer tackling such demanding hopes, but Sucker Punch has proved to me that they can create games that are special and resonate with PlayStation's most dedicated fans: there's no doubt about that. The developer has had many years to really flesh this game out, and with Sony behind them, I trust they're tackling this project with the utmost care it deser

To figure that out, we only need to look to the recent past. When the PS4 launched in 2013 , Sony made a pretty big push to get original titles on it. This was mixed in with a helping of some cross-generation releases (such as Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag and Call of Duty: Ghosts ) that gave users a clear reason to ditch their PS3's for Sony’s hot new box. Why spend $60 on a version of the game that looked and ran worse than its PS4 counterp

At the very end of Bethesda’s E3 press conference last year, Todd Howard wrapped up the presentation with two brief teases for the developer’s next pair of open world RPGs. The first was a brand-new IP set in space known as Starfield, which Howard has since confirmed during a PAX East panel is still very early in development and will not appear during the studio’s briefing this year.

"We were certainly very excited to make a game set in feudal Japan, because it brings up a lot of romantic images in our mind. Part of the fantasy around feudal Japan is being a samurai - that's an exciting job to have in feudal Japan. I do think it's under-utilized. I don't know why more games aren't set there, it's so appeali

Square Enix and Platinum Games are teaming up again for another action title. Called Babylon's Fall , we were given a very Nier -esque trailer that didn't reveal much about plot details. It does look exciting, though. You can check out our full coverage he

One of the most shocking announcements in gaming news last year came in mid-November, when Sony dropped the bombshell that they would not be attending the following year’s E3 in any capacity. With no press conference or space-consuming booth on the floor, PS4 owners will have to continue waiting for updates on Ghost of Tsushima, The Last of Us Part II, Concrete Genie and the rest of Sony’s first-party lineup.

Just yesterday, Sony announced that it would be delaying the release of The Last of Us Part II to give developer NaughtyDog more time to polish it up. While still unconfirmed, a recent report by Kotaku's Jason Schreier has stated that Ghost of Tsushima has also suffered a delay because of Sony’s decision. With the PS5 seemingly coming out at the end of 2020, is there a chance that we could see Ghost of Tsushima land on Sony's next-generation hardw

Speaking of Ubisoft, their long-awaited sci-fi sequel is also taking a break from the E3 stage, after returning from hibernation at E3 2017 and showing a second cinematic trailer the following year. Fans of the title, however, still have a glimpse of Beyond Good and Evil 2 to look forward to this month, as their fifth Space Monkey Report livestream takes place on June 5 at 9 AM PT, with the previous livestream featuring a lengthy pre-alpha demo.

These sentiments came out during an interview with GamesIndustry.biz at VIEW Conference 2018 in Turin. As Sucker Punch and Sony Interactive Entertainment revealed previously, Ghost Of Tsushima Tips|Https://Tsushimalegend.Com/ of Tsushima is set on the titular island between the Korean Peninsula and Japan, with players following one of the few remaining samurai that can fend off the Mongol invas

Interestingly, though, Sony launched The Last of Us on PS3 earlier that same year. While the specifics of the PS4's launch date were unknown at the time, many were preparing to say goodbye to their previous console and welcome a new one into their homes. Then came The Last of Us to the tune of rave reviews and incredible sales. Clearly people couldn't wait for the PS4 and had to game right

Another " State of Play " stream is in the books and the results are a little mixed. While Sony is getting a little better at sneaking in some unexpected news, the streams still lack the personality and shock value of a Nintendo Direct. I will admit that the fakeout with Resident Evil Resistance did get me, though that's mostly because I woke up well before I normally

The conversation then moved to a wider discussion about how AAA games should be more creative and unique when choosing new settings. While Nate Fox thinks recent Sony first-party releases like Horizon: Zero Dawn and God of War did a good job at bringing players someplace new, he acknowledges the fact that there's a lot of room for expans
