We all knew it was coming, but now it's official

Square Enix has just confirmed the existence of Hitman Absolution with a teaser trailer. We've embedded it above. Details are super scarce right now, presumably with more to follow at E3. We'll keep you updated.

When we started this website, we made an internal pledge to cut out the metaphors that's so prevalent in games media

Sometimes we fail. We're failing right now actually, while we discuss aims and objectives that have nothing to do with this stor--... Ok. IO Interactive has Tweeted that "next week will be very good" and that we should "get ready for the incoming shrapnel."..

What big release doesn't come neatly packaged in a tidy collector's edition these days? Not ones to shy of current trends, Square Enix has announced that, yes, Deus Ex: Human Revolution will be available as part of a big box set

To be fair, it does look classy. The collector's edition includes a ton of goodies. First up, there's the super slick collector's box. Will look nice on your shelf that..

Square Enix has been a roll when it comes to Final Fantasy re-releases of late

We only just got Final Fantasy V here in the West, but now the publisher is teasing a digital release of Final Fantasy VI in Japan. Siliconera reports that that the game will be available to download from April 20th. Naturally it'll be the PSone version of the game, rather than the SNES original. No Western release date..

Dear readers, We are aware that some of you might been duped into believing that a remake of Final Fantasy VII is coming to the NGP

While we agree that this would be amazing, it has come to our attention that some websites are posting a fake job letter in order to support their personal fantasies. Please don't believe them. While it's entirely feasible that Square Enix might consider developing..

Square Enix has pushed back the European release of Dungeon Siege III by a couple of weeks, the publisher has announced today

The Obsidian developed game was originally scheduled for release on May 27th. It'll now launch on June 17th. No announcements regarding the US release date were made. Update @ 19:46 BST: Square Enix has just confirmed that the game has been delayed until June 21st in North..

The PSone edition of Final Fantasy V is headed to the PlayStation Network according to a press release distributed by Square Enix this afternoon

The game originally launched on the SNES in 1992, but later got re-released on PlayStation with additional cut-scenes. The game will be in good company — Final Fantasy VII, VIII and IX are all currently available via Sony's PSone Classics service, while..

Square Enix has confirmed that timed PlayStation Network exclusive, Moon Diver, will launch this week in Europe and North America

The game, which looks a lot like Strider, is a four-player co-op action game designed by Koichi Yotsui. Unsurprisingly, Yotsui-san was one of the leads on the original Strider game.

Remember that alternate-reality Hitman 5 game we told you about the other day? Well now it's kicking up bonafide screenshots

Four of the images reference the Canada's CN Tower — the world's largest free-standing structure. Fans are speculating that this suggests Hitman 5 will be set in Canada. It's the fifth image that is most interesting though. It looks to be a screenshot from a CGI movie,..

At this point, we're wishing Dissidia duodecim FINAL FANTASY would just flippin' come out already. It's not because we can't wait to play it — well, not entirely anyway. Fact is, we are..

It sounds like Hitman 5's finally set to get its long awaited announcement at this year's E3

Members of the franchise's forums are dizzy with speculation after a bunch of ARG clues started appearing around the Internet. Hit the link for all the clues. As with any ARG it all gets a bit confusing after the first couple of announcements, but, from what we can gather, the latest update includes a..

Square Enix has revealed that it will launch the PSone classic, Parasite Eve, on the American PlayStation Store this week

The release comes ahead of the Western launch for PSP Parasite Eve spin-off, The 3rd Birthday. There's still no news of a European release for Parasite Eve nor its sequel.

At some point, Square Enix decided it would be funny to troll games bloggers

As if Dissidia 012 FINAL FANTASY wasn't heinous enough, the publisher's just announced a kind of premium demo for the game entitled Dissidia duodecim prologus FINAL FANTASY. The taster comes with a unique scenario featuring Lightning, as well as the ability to carry any in-game items plundered into the main game. In..

Square Enix has slapped a big juicy August 23rd / August 26th release date on Deus Ex: Human Revolution for the US and UK respectively

The announcement comes days after retailers accidentally broke the news. The game's currently available for pre-order in two different flavours. The standard edition comes with an Explosive Mission Pack, featuring a new mission and some additional gear. The..

Spot of make-up and a touch of botox and look at that, good as new

Crystal Dynamics has released some comparison shots for their upcoming PlayStation 3 Tomb Raider Trilogy. The pack — which includes PS2 titles Tomb Raider Legends & Anniversary, in addition to PS3 game Underworld — has been remastered in HD (well the PS2 games have anyway) and is due out at the end of the month.

Does anybody remember Crystal Dynamics' cult third-person action adventure title, Legacy Of Kain: Soul Reaver? Some of you

Well as of tomorrow you'll be able to revisit the PSone classic as it launches for £7.99 on the European PlayStation Store. For those unfamiliar with the title, it's pretty moody. If moody is your cup of tea, then step right ahead.

America, Square Enix are really starting to spoil you

You get Xenogears last week, you're getting Vagrant Story next week, and you'll probably get Parasite Eve this month. Good, eh? Vagrant Story will set you back $6 when it becomes available tomorrow.

Looks like Square's readying that digital copy of Parasite Eve just in time for the series' upcoming spiritual successor, The 3rd Birthday

The survival horror classic has been rated by the ESRB for a PlayStation 3 and PlayStation Portable release — presumably via the PlayStation Store. Don't hold your breath over a European re-release — the game never came out over here.

Following yesterday's UK release date, Square Enix has released an English trailer for The 3rd Birthday

It's rich with the kind of disjointed dialogue and silly music you'd expect from a hastily translated Japanese game. But we're still pumped. Pretty girls, big guns and a nonsense plot? What's not to love?
