E3 2017 Ni no Kuni II Is Indeed Launching in 2017
Hurrah!
Ni no Kuni II: Revenant Kingdom will be bringing whimsical fantasy and gorgeous graphics to PlayStation 4 this year, a Bandai Namco press release has confirmed ahead of time. Snapped by Kotaku's Jason Schreier, the text has the Japanese role-playing title pegged for a 10th November 2017 date. Nice. While the game has always been...
E3 2017 Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus Will Take You on a Tour of America
Flex those guns
If you didn’t catch the reveal trailer for Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus, then we highly recommend putting your feet up and sitting through that now, because it’s bloody brilliant from start-to-finish. Of course, a little more has been revealed about the game in the aftermath of Bethesda’s press conference yesterday, with...
Rumour God of War PS4 Release Date Set for November 2017
Kratos won't be happy if true
We're just hours away from Sony's E3 2017 press conference, so understandably, hype levels are at blistering highs right now. As such, rumours and whispers are all over the place - but it's this supposed God of War release date leak that's currently catching the most attention. The PlayStation 4 exclusive will...

Girls of summer

Of course, those of you who’ve played...
Talking Point What Does Sony Have to Do in Order to 'Win' E3 2017?
Games, games, games?
As is now tradition, Sony will host the final big E3 publisher press conference tonight - or tomorrow morning, depending on your timezone. At the time of writing, we've seen a total of three shows: EA, Microsoft, and Bethesda. Ubisoft is up a few hours before the PlayStation maker takes to the stage, but we think the time is now...
News Pachter: Microsoft Has a Problem if PS4 Pro Drops to $299
Analyst weighs in on Xbox's 'tough sell'
Industry analyst Michael Pachter has chimed in on the announcement of the Xbox One X. Speaking with Geoff Keighley on YouTube Live, the industry analyst explained that he believes Microsoft has made a good product, but he has doubts about its performance at retail. And asked about Sony’s response, here’s...
Feature 5 PS4 Exclusives That Will Wow at E3 2017
Show stoppers
A lot of the anticipation for E3 centres on the unknown, but more often than not it’s the games that have already been revealed that steal the show. Who could forget that Uncharted 2: Among Thieves demo that dropped jaws in 2009? Or our first proper look at The Last of Us in 2012? Sony has more exclusives out in the open than any...
E3 2017 Quantic Dream Teases Detroit: Become Human for Sony's Briefing
Release date incoming?
Things have been fairly quiet when it comes to Detroit: Become Human following its showing at Sony's E3 press conference last year, but that looks set to change tonight. The French studio Quantic Dream has just tweeted a teasing image for the Heavy Rain and Beyond: Two Souls follow-up, which reads: "Everything will be...
Soapbox Sony Will Bring a Tsunami of PS4 Software to E3 2017
Sammy's spotted a change in PlayStation's tact
If you’ve followed E3 closely in the past, you’ll know there’s a different mood about the PlayStation camp this year. Historically, the Japanese giant drags the show out, using the days and weeks prior to any press conferences to release trailers, announce release dates, and sometimes even reveal...
Rumour Expect a Monster Hunter World Reveal Later Today
Name now registered in Europe, too
Monster Hunter World has now been trademarked in Europe, alongside the filing which was spotted in North America late last week. This makes the likelihood of a reveal during Sony’s press conference later today all the more likely, though it’s possible the reveal could be planned for Nintendo’s event we...
Feature Sony PlayStation E3 2017 Press Conference Predictions
What to expect for PS4
It’s the final countdown to Sony’s big E3 2017 press conference, which means that it’s time for us to plot out our predictions for PlayStation’s big show. As is always the case with these articles, we’ve tried to avoid fan-fiction (even though we really do want Jumping Flash for PlayStation VR) and instead opted for...
E3 2017 The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt Will Loot a PS4 Pro Update
CD Projekt RED confirms
We took CD Projekt RED to task yesterday when it revealed that The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt would be updated for Xbox One X, after it had insinuated previously that it didn’t have time to support the PlayStation 4 Pro. Fortunately, it looks like the Polish developer has had a total change of heart, and will support Sony’s...
E3 2017 Dragon Ball FighterZ Looks Like the Real Deal in 15 Minutes of Gameplay
Fresh footage looks spot on
Oh boy, this footage of Dragon Ball FighterZ looks really promising. Leaked before E3 began but official revealed at Microsoft's press conference, the title is being developed by Arc System Works - the studio behind BlazBlue and Guilty Gear. It's safe to say that Akira Toriyama's timeless work is in capable hands,...
E3 2017 The Evil Within 2 Blends Psychological Thrills with Survival Spills
Out on 13th October
Resident Evil creator Shinji Mikami is back with his sophomore survival horror effort: The Evil Within 2. Announced overnight as part of Bethesda’s E3 2017 showcase, and set to release on 13th October for the PlayStation 4, the game plots the return of Detective Sebastian Castellanos, as he descends into the “disturbing world...
E3 2017 Dissidia Final Fantasy NT Sends Us Flying with 15 Mins of PS4 Gameplay
That HUD is bloody awful, though
IGN's snagged around 15 minutes of Dissidia Final Fantasy NT gameplay at E3 2017. The role-playing-fighter hybrid was finally announced for a PlayStation 4 release last week, and this is the first time that we've seen the title in action on Sony's console. It certainly looks like a Dissidia game. Seriously though,...
Reaction Xbox Is Still Two Steps Behind PlayStation
Microsoft's surmounted the power gap but forgotten the software
Xbox fans waited a year for last night’s press conference. That’s not a slight, but it needs to be put into context: there’s been no PlayStation Experience equivalent over the past 12 months from the folks in Redmond; the company certainly didn’t hold any media briefings at the...
Guide What Time Is Ubisoft's E3 2017 Press Conference?
And where's the best place to watch it?
Ubisoft is one of the few big third-party publishers to actually hold an E3 2017 press conference, and while it’s hosted its fair share of awkward showcases in the past, it usually brings better wares than EA. This year’s likely to be all about Assassin’s Creed Origins, The Crew 2, and Far Cry 5 – but...
E3 2017 Devolver Digital's Tongue-in-Cheek Presser Is Well Worth a Watch
Check a look
Hot on the heels of Bethesda's E3 conference came Devolver Digital's segment on Twitch, where it promised a "ridiculous" show with "no game reveals". In all fairness, it delivered exactly that. The conference, put together by a company called Imagos Films, was no more than 15 minutes long, but was packed with satirical moments, such as...
E3 2017 DOOM: VFR is Coming to PlayStation VR This Year
Take a guess what the F stands for
During Bethesda's E3 press conference, it highlighted two virtual reality titles it has in the works. DOOM: VFR is a made-for-VR game with the trademark lightning quick and bloody gameplay you know and love. Better yet is that it's heading for PlayStation VR later this year, as well as HTC Vive. Bethesda did also...
E3 2017 Bethesda's Creation Club Brings More Paid Content to Fallout 4 and Skyrim on PS4
It never ends
Revealed during Bethesda's E3 2017 press conference, the company's Creation Club seems like a pretty cool idea at a glance, but there's a catch. Essentially, Creation Club will bring high quality content to Fallout 4 and Skyrim - Special Edition - bits and pieces made by both Bethesda and "the best community creators"...
Round Up Every Announcement and Trailer from Bethesda's E3 2017 Press Conference
The Evil Within 2! Wolfenstein 2! Dishonored!
Our short but sweet tour of Bethesdaland brought with it couple of bags of candyfloss earlier today, as the publisher revealed its lineup for the remainder of 2017. Here's every announcement and trailer from the media briefing that you may have missed, what with it being on at such an awful time and all...
E3 2017 Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus Looks Brutal and Bonkers
Releasing October on PS4
After a brief tease last year, Bethesda has today unveiled the next game in the Wolfenstein franchise at its E3 conference. The sequel, titled Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus, takes place in the USA, and sees meaty franchise hero BJ Blazkowicz joining another Nazi resistance movement. The extended reveal trailer...
E3 2017 Death of the Outsider Is a New Dishonored Adventure
Killer
Bethesda just announced Dishonored: Death of the Outsider at its short E3 showcase, and you can find the trailer embedded above. At first thought to be DLC for Dishonored 2, the official blurb describes Death of the Outsider as "the next standalone adventure in the critically acclaimed Dishonored series". You play as Billie Lurk who reunites...
E3 2017 The Evil Within 2 Spooks PS4 on Friday the 13th
Voorhees a jolly good fellow
Marketing masterstoke numero uno: survival horror sequel The Evil Within 2 will release on Friday, 13th October for the PlayStation 4. Bethesda confirmed the date alongside a meaty (and mad) reveal trailer, which included people drowning in milk and all sorts of other insanity. Watch it above.
Talking Point What Did You Think of Bethesda's E3 2017 Press Conference?
Short but sweet?
We've waited up into the not-so-early hours of morning in order to cover Bethesda's E3 2017 press conference, but was it worth the sleepless night? The publisher's third E3 show, it brought some big guns to the Los Angeles event courtesy of Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus and The Evil Within 2 - although both were leaked well...

Live Watch Bethesda's E3 2017 Press Conference Right Here
The Evil Within! Wolfenstein! The Elder Scrolls? Fallout?
Bethesda’s back for its third annual E3 2017 showcase, and after a relatively quiet showcase in 2016, this year promises to be a cracker. We’re anticipating the likes of The Evil Within 2 and Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus, alongside some surprises, too. Join us live from 9PM PDT for...
E3 2017 Gran Turismo Sport Will Be Dated Tomorrow
Announced during Sony presser pre-show
Gran Turismo Sport, the anticipated simulation racer for the PlayStation 4, will be dated during the pre-show of Sony's E3 2017 press conference tomorrow. Series creator Kazunori Yamauchi confirmed the tidbit on Twitter, noting that fans should tune in between 5PM PDT and 6PM PDT tomorrow, in the moments before...
E3 2017 ANTHEM Is Aiming for a Fall 2018 Release
Nope, not spring
Oh, so it turns out that ANTHEM is farther away than we initially thought. The sci-fi shooter from BioWare was shown off during Microsoft's E3 2017 press conference a few hours ago, and based on what we saw, the project looked reasonably far along. However, Business Wire has the game pegged for a fall 2018 release, so it's a...
E3 2017 The Witcher 3 Will Get Xbox One X Support, Despite Dev's Stance on PS4 Pro
We thought you were cool, CD Projekt RED
Here’s a thing: The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt was one of the games listed that will be upgraded for the Xbox One X, the new mid-gen upgrade from Microsoft. But back when the PlayStation 4 Pro launched, many people asked developer CD Projekt RED if it would pledge similar support for Sony’s supercharged system...
