Microsoft and EA may have embarked upon a secretive romance, but that's not stopping Battlefield 4 from targeting the PlayStation 4.

Going potty

Big shoes to fill

The first instalment in Lucid Games’ promising episodic puzzler Jacob Jones and the Bigfoot Mystery will unravel on the PlayStation Vita this week.

CCP Games shares the good news

Who doesn’t love gimmicky dates? CCP Games has confirmed that its ambitious free-to-play shooter DUST 514 will officially launch on 14th May.

Moonbot Studios opens the book on film noir adventure

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...

Bounty hunter
