The team over at Digital Foundry are here to potentially spoil the NieR: Automata party with their latest video, which we've embedded above.

Ghost in the Hell
Bullet hell shoot-'em-ups can be intimidating to jump into if you're not a diehard player of the genre.

News Liverpool FC Signs EA's Peter Moore For an Undisclosed Fee
Signing of the summer
In a rather bizarre turn of events, EA boss and all-round entertaining industry figure Peter Moore will be taking on the role of CEO at Liverpool Football Club. The talkative gaming veteran, who was born in Liverpool, is a lifelong supporter of the team - so this is basically the 61-year-old's dream job. We suppose...

Hands On Turning Back Time with Yooka-Laylee on PS4
A Rare treat?
The employees over at Playtonic have been through a lot to say the least, many of them coming from backgrounds at the ever-celebrated developer Rare that was responsible for such timeless classics as Donkey Kong Country, GoldenEye 007, and Donkey Kong 64 to name a few. So there's a pedigree to these people to say the least, but have...

Rumour Assassin's Creed Egypt's Looking More and More Likely
Empires of the Sultan
Outside of a remastered compilation, Assassin's Creed remained in the Animus last year, giving Ubisoft a little more time to bring the brand back with a bang after a bit of oversaturation in the years prior. And 2017 will supposedly see the release of Empires, an Egyptian outing that promises to restore the series' reputation...

Tango yankee
Ghost Recon: Wildlands had its open beta over the weekend, so before the tidal wave made up of March releases comes crashing down on us, we decided to sink a fair few hours into it.

News Street Fighter V Still Kinda Sucks, But Capcom Pro Tour's Back
Yay?
A year later, Street Fighter V is still very much a shadow of the game that it should be.

We were going to explain the qualification process here, but it's so complicated that we're just going...
News UK Sales Charts: For Honor Sticks a Sword in the Summit for a Second Week
Calm before the storm
Despite a 72 per cent drop in sales week over week, no title could take For Honor's seat at the summit of the UK sales charts.

Weirdness Here's How Horizon's Ruins Could Look in the UK
Life's looking bleak after Brexit

The images span this author's neck of...
News NieR Automata Lets You Buy Trophies with In-Game Cash
Platinum standard
With the game already readily available in Japan, some of NieR Automata's secrets are starting to trickle online.

News Marvel: We Want Spider-Man PS4 to Be Game of the Year
Great power, great responsibility
It's worth reiterating that Marvel's approach to games is changing.

And that all starts with Spider-Man, the...

A Reddit rumour claims that inFAMOUS developer Sucker Punch is working on a Spaghetti Western for the PlayStation 4, but there's no truth to it as far as we can tell.

Fizzy
There was a little period towards the tail of the PlayStation 3 era and the beginning of the PlayStation 4 generation where it felt like Insomniac Games had parted ways with Sony for good: Sunset Overdrive was announced as an Xbox One exclusive, the studio formed a tight relationship with Oculus, and no one seemed to want to show Ratchet &...
Talking Point Which Free March 2017 PlayStation Plus Games Do You Want?
That time again
Surely it's not time for another PlayStation Plus update? Apparently, it is – but then we suppose February is the shortest month of the year.

Bloody and brutal samurai slice-'em-up Nioh has sold over one million copies worldwide, Koei Tecmo has announced.

Well, not that familiar
Chris Redfield will star in Resident Evil 7's free Not a Hero story expansion this spring, though he won't look like you remember him.

News This Horizon: Zero Dawn Time Lapse Is Pure Eye Candy
Phwoar
For our money, Horizon: Zero Dawn is up there with the best looking games ever made.

We didn't see this one coming, did you? That's a… Y'know, spot of sarcasm there in case you didn't detect it.

What do you want?
Tekken 7's got a new challenger, it would seem.

News Final Fantasy XV: Episode Gladiolus Is Priced at Just $4.99 Without the Season Pass
Good deal or sign of disappointment?
So, it turns out that Episode Gladiolus, Final Fantasy XV's first 'real' slice of downloadable content, will only set you back $4.99 if you don't own the season pass.

Developer hasn't even read the script
When it comes to movies based on video games, there's a surprisingly common misconception that developers have a say in the production of the big screen adaptations that are based on their work - but most of the time, this isn't the case.

Oh, Capcom – why, oh why did you cut Resident Evil 7: Biohazard - Banned Footage Vol. 2 from the main game?

Remember those rumours about Call of Duty 2017 adopting a World War 2 setting?

News This Tale of PS4 Theft Is Particularly Harrowing
Console lifted from children's cancer ward
Thieves suck, but even the likes of Nathan Drake have an ethical code.

Really, really not cool. The thing that makes...
News Mass Effect: Andromeda Looking to The Witcher Rather than Dragon Age for Side Quests
Probably a good thing
When Dragon Age: Inquisition launched on PlayStation 4 in 2014, we were confident that it was one of the best role-playing games on the console - mostly because there wasn't much competition. In 2015, however, it more than met its match; The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt basically blew it away in almost every department. There was one...
