The sequel will now launch on the 6th September instead of the 8th. Apparently this will allow for a...
E3 2017 Yep, Coco Bandicoot Is Playable in All Three Crash PS4 Games
This trailer confirms it
No, the big Crash Bandicoot surprise didn't turn out to be a Crash Team Racing remake, but it's still pretty cool. As evidenced by the above trailer, Coco Bandicoot will be a fully playable character in all three titles included in Crash Bandicoot: N. Sane Trilogy. She's even got her own daft animations and...

Old boy
Age is just a number, and that's a motto Kazuma Kiryu seems to live by in Yakuza 6. The latest entry in the series, Kaz is getting on in years by the time that this new story unfolds. Haruka's in hospital, she's got a kid, and the Dragon of Dojima's out to find the father - it's a setup that we can't wait to watch unfurl. Give the game's E3...

Can you catch The Trapper?
Another announcement that Sony bizarrely buried into its E3 2017 pre-show yesterday was Hidden Agenda, a crime thriller from the creators of Until Dawn. Much like free PlayStation Plus title That’s You, this game is built around the platform holder’s new PlayLink initiative – which enables multiple people to...
E3 2017 Big Monster Hunter World PS4 Details Drop
On the prowl
No, you didn't dream it - a Monster Hunter game really is coming to PlayStation 4 next year.

E3 2017 The Elder Scrolls VI Still Isn't In Development, Says Bethesda
Hmmm
It may have been the basis for a question in our E3 community predictions quiz, but realistically, most of us weren't expecting Bethesda to even mention The Elder Scrolls VI at its press conference - and it didn't. Despite Bethesda's constant denial, however, we've always assumed that the project is underway behind closed doors. Not so,...

Makes sense to us
Many were expecting The Last of Us: Part II to put in an appearance during Sony's E3 2017 press conference last night, but it never showed up.

Reaction What Sony's E3 2017 Press Conference Got Wrong
And how it can easily fix things next year
After several barnstorming E3 and PlayStation Experience press conferences, last night’s E3 2017 showcase felt like a bit of a let-down. To be clear, it absolutely wasn’t bad by any stretch of the imagination: God of War and Spider-Man seem super exciting; there’s loads to loo
E3 2017 Microsoft's Saying Stupid Things About the PS4 Pro
"It's a competitor to Xbox One S"
If you hadn’t noticed, Microsoft’s marketing with Xbox One X revolves around techno babble that only a select few understand. In fact, even back when Project Scorpio was revealed last year, it’s been flaunting specifications, and it’s made damn sure you know that they’re stronger than the PlayStation 4...

Shining bright
Sony rather welcomingly dedicated a decent chunk of its E3 presser to its virtual reality headset, showing off a spate of new titles.

Hopefully, this prior experience...
E3 2017 Go Fish with Monster of the Deep: Final Fantasy XV on PSVR
Taking the easy way trout
It seems Square Enix just can't get enough of developing games featuring those good and wholesome boys from Final Fantasy XV.

E3 2017 The Inpatient Has an Appointment with PlayStation VR
We're impatient to play The Inpatient
You would think Supermassive Games would be done with spin-offs of Until Dawn with the PlayStation VR's Rush of Blood, but it's proving that it has more scares left in its universe to extract with The Inpatient, which is set 60 years before the events of the main game in the Blackwood Sanitorium. After getting...

E3 2017 Call of Duty: WWII Storms in With Gritty Gameplay
Go akimbo
Belgium. The Soviet Union. Germany.
