There's an argument that PREY is flying a little too fancifully under-the-radar – especially seeing as it looks like the new-gen BioShock we've all been twiddling our thumbs waiting for. The best way to rectify that problem is by letting people play the game, however, and thus you can look forward to testing out the opening hour for free on the PlayStation 4 from 27th April.

There are no catches here as far as we can tell: you don't need to pre-order or register for a code on an official website – just download the sampler from the PlayStation Store and have at it. It's really nice to see Bethesda do this, and shows a certain confidence in the final product. Then again, it's the kind of marketing the game desperately needs, because too many are sleeping on it right now.
