Zwei to go

Hours after putting The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim out to pasture, Bethesda has launched a teaser for a new title. The publisher uploaded a mysterious video onto its Twitter account this afternoon, showing little more than barbed wire, a few books, and a vinyl record. Contrary to public opinion, though,

Codemasters blazing trails on current hardware

Social may be the big hook of the PlayStation 4, but Codemasters is delivering on the promise on current generation hardware. This brand new GRID 2 trailer offers a good look at the impending racer’s multiplayer suite, and it includes community-driven features such as video sharing and dynamic...

Fuel to the fire

Scoop up a great heap of salt and toss a hearty helping over your shoulder, because North American retailer Newegg is listing Gran Turismo 6 for the PlayStation 3. According to the online technology plaza, the racing simulator is due out on 28th November. That date’s likely to be a placeholder – it coincides with Thanksgiving...

Place your bets now

In arguably the least surprising snippet of PlayStation 4 news thus far, Sony’s Worldwide Studios vice president Michael Denny has admitted that the company already has a release date in mind for its next generation system. Chatting with EDGE magazine, the company executive noted that the platform holder “knows launch...

Transferring data unlocks exclusive item

Sony has confirmed that any progress that you make in this week’s Soul Sacrifice demo will carry over to the full game. Writing on the PlayStation Blog, producer Kumi Yuasa revealed that your save data will be fully compatible with the final release – and you’ll even get a bonus item for bringing your...

Moonbot Studios opens the book on film noir adventure

Wonderbook may not be everyone’s idea of a good time, but Moonbot Studios’ upcoming detective adventure Wonderbook: Diggs Nightcrawler sounds legitimately awesome. The title – which is due out on 29th May in Europe and later this year in North America – puts you in control of a...

Breaking tradition

Sony’s been frighteningly non-committal regarding the launch timing of the PlayStation 4. While the platform holder flashed up the words ‘Holiday 2013’ during its big PlayStation Meeting press conference earlier in the year, it’s failed to really elaborate on the window since. “The precise details, as I say, for exact...

Analysts stick the knife in Kratos' origin story

God of War: Ascension was a very good game, but there’s no denying that it suffered from a spot of franchise fatigue. Despite implementing multiplayer and refining some gameplay mechanics, it still offered a somewhat safe experience, and it looks like the brunt of that is set to be reflected in the...

Bounty hunter

Those of you with a taste for borderline embarrassing full-motion video may be tempted by the release of Mad Dog 2: The Lost Gold on the North American PlayStation Store today. The title – which was originally released in arcades way back in 1992 – sees you using your trusty PlayStation Move six-shooter in order to blast a trail...

Wherefore art thou?

BioShock Infinite is absolutely stuffed to the brim with subtle nods at popular culture – but it’s also packing a few Shakespeare quotes, too. You may have noticed a strange whispering sound when using the game’s Possession Vigor, but did you know that these seemingly incomprehensible noises are actually lines from Romeo...

Platform holder hints that the system probably won't break the bank

Sony has admitted that it was forced to learn hard lessons regarding the pricing of the PlayStation 3, and it will put those into practice with its impending next generation console. Chatting with EDGE magazine, Worldwide Studios vice president Michael Denny revealed that the...

No need to be clean and tidy

While the confirmation that Sony’s next generation system will include 8GB GDDR5 RAM was met by rapturous applause during February’s big PlayStation 4 jolly-up, a laundry list of developers have hinted that the gigantic offering could lead to ‘lazy’ programming in a report published by

Catch of the day

For an agent that’s supposed to rely on stealth, you’d think that Sam Fisher would have the foresight to switch off his night-vision goggles when not in use. This brand new trailer for the upcoming Splinter Cell: Blacklist shows the aforementioned protagonist hiding in the shadows, but we’re not sure how he doesn't get spotted...

Dragon Fantasy: Book I also discounted

North American PlayStation Plus subscribers will be able to download Alvion’s malevolent PlayStation Network adventure Malicious for free this week. The title – which recently spawned a PlayStation Vita port in Japan – sees you assume the role of the Spirit Vessel, a mysterious protagonist sent by the...

High-definition remake on the horizon

It looks like SEGA Studios Australia’s last task before getting the boot will be to finish re-imagining Castle of Illusion Starring Mickey Mouse in glorious high-definition. Following a slew of rumours, SEGA has officially confirmed the remake of

Fus ro dah

With hundreds of hours already on offer, Bethesda has ruled out the possibility of any further The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim content. Writing on its official blog, the company revealed that it's leaving behind the snowy peaks of Hrothgar in favour of its (hopefully warmer) next big adventure. "Skyrim has been a labour of love for us since...

Drawn to death

Who gives a hoot about fruit when you could be using your favourite touch screen device to slice the heads off pirate monkey zombies? That appears to be the design principle behind Draw Slasher, an impending PlayStation Vita title that sees your finger transformed into a ninja. Much like Halfbrick’s seminal crop cutter, you’ll...

SuperBot Entertainment survives split from Sony

PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale developer SuperBot Entertainment is punching together a new intellectual property, according to the studio’s director of operations David Yang. In a statement issued to EDGE, the company admitted that it has “substantially shrunk” since it ended its rel

Llamasoft’s founder bleats on about the future of games

The word ‘legendary’ gets tossed around a little too much these days, but Jeff Minter is a British icon whose portfolio is more than deserving of the clichéd term. Since founding Llamasoft in 1982, the Reading-born developer has worked on a laundry list of noteworthy games, including...

Be there or be square

Toxic Games’ critically acclaimed Portal-esque first-person puzzler Q.U.B.E. could be coming to the PlayStation Vita, according to the developer’s official Twitter account. Asked if a port of the Indie Fund financed title was on the cards for Sony’s handheld system, the studio simply responded, “Quite possibly.”...

God only knows

Nothing could tear BioShock Infinite away from the top of the UK sales charts this week, as the inspired Irrational Games shooter enjoyed a third successive period at the summit of the best-sellers list. As has become a recurring trend, the title was joined by Tomb Raider, FIFA 13, and Defiance in the top five. Elsewhere,

Weapons and wands

The Workshop, the studio behind last year’s overlooked PlayStation Move exclusive Sorcery, is working its magic on a brand new title for the PlayStation 4. Having spent the latter half of last year producing Borderlands 2 DLC, the Californian outfit is now turning its attention to Sony’s next generation machine. “We're proud...

Play, create, share

Those of you that are frustrated with the direction of the Final Fantasy series will be able to build your own sequel next week, courtesy of the PlayStation Network release of RPG Maker 3. The title – which originally launched on the PlayStation 2 back in 2005 – will be available as a PS2 Classic in North America on Tuesday,...

Cold shoulder

Dark Souls 2’s box art is about as morbidly bleak as you’d expect from a game that thinks constantly coaxing you into unexpected death-traps is entertainment. The cover – which popped up on All Games Beta earlier today – depicts a sword-wielding warrior with his back turned. We’re going to assume that he wasn’t in the mood...
