Poll Would You Still Buy PlayStation Consoles Without Activision Blizzard Games?
The call of duty
In a move that will shake the gaming industry to its core, Microsoft is on course to buy Activision Blizzard for a reported figure of $68 billion. This means that incredibly popular properties such as Call of Duty, World of Warcraft, Diablo, and Overwatch, would be owned by Microsoft. You could argue that those last two franchises...
Reaction Activision Blizzard Buyout Is Devastating for PS5, PS4
The end of an era
Is this the end of PlayStation? It’s always easy to get apocalyptic in situations like this, but it’s obviously not. Sony’s gaming division remains a wildly popular brand globally, and no single publisher can ever detract from that. Make no mistake, though, Microsoft’s acquisition of Activision Blizzard for $70 billion is a...
Hands On OlliOlli World Is a Bold and Brilliant New Spin on the Skateboarding Series
JollyOlli good
Before getting our hands on the PlayStation 5 version of OlliOlli World for this preview, we refreshed ourselves on the basics in OlliOlli 2: Welcome to Olliwood.

Talking Point What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 409
A freezing frontier
We're not sure about your part of the world, but the temperature has absolutely plummeted here at Push Square Towers. It means we'll be avoiding the outdoors as much as humanly possible, as we tuck in to a number of titles over the weekend. Sammy Barker, Editor: The NFL playoffs get underway this weekend, and with so much sport...
Talking Point What Do You Realistically Expect from PS5, PS4's Game Pass Inspired PS Plus Reboot?
Plus one
Sony is reportedly revising its subscription services, with a new initiative codenamed Project Spartacus being touted behind closed company walls. This, it’s rumoured, will phase out streaming option PS Now and create three new PS Plus tiers. For many, the service will remain unchanged, offering the existing mix of discounts, cloud saves,...
Video Convincing a Nintendo Fan to Buy a PS5
You know it makes (Dual)Sense
Believe it or not, there are some people out there who haven’t yet picked up a PlayStation 5 (and not just because they’re still a nightmare to get hold of). Alex Olney from our sister site, Nintendo Life, is one of these misguided souls. He claims to not need one seeing as a lot of first-party PlayStation...
Reaction Can We Chill Out About Sony's Commitment to PS4, Please?
🙄
This week it was reported that Sony would produce a further one million PlayStation 4 consoles through 2022, and the Internet lost its mind. This agenda was partly pushed by an increasingly irritating media, with some of the headlines including Expect More Cross-Gen Games As Sony Orders 1 Million PS4s. There aren’t enough eye-rolling emojis...
Hands On God of War PC Is a Great Way to Play a PS4 Classic
RT-Axe on
In 2018 Sony Santa Monica shipped God of War, a soft reboot of the fan-favourite action-adventure trilogy that traded the Greek pantheon for Norse mythology. Featuring an emotional narrative that focused on the relationship between the rough-edged Kratos and his young son Atreus, God of War reinvigorated the series without straying too far...

Poll How Long Should Games Be?
Playtime counter
There's a new question on the minds of gamers: how long should a game realistically be? Sparked by Techland proudly claiming Dying Light 2 will take 500 hours to complete — which has now been walked back twice in just a few days — it feels like a backlash to seriously long titles is brewing somewhat. Of cours

Next-gen escapism
PSVR2, also known as PS VR2 or PlayStation VR2, is Sony's next-generation virtual reality headset for the PlayStation 5, or PS5.

Talking Point What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 408
Cold, man
Normal, numbered service returns in this week's WAYP, as we push forward for a new year of Push Square's longest running series. Hard to believe we're now up to 408 issues, to be honest. Sammy Barker, Editor: I'm absolutely loving Life Is Strange: True Colors, so much so I can't believe I waited this long to play it. I think Life Is...
Poll How Would You Rate PS Plus in 2021?
Plus or minus?
Now that 2021 is done and dusted, we think it's time to look back at PlayStation Plus, and what Sony's subscription service offered over the last 12 months. If you've been subscribed to PS Plus in that time, we'd love to know your thoughts. But before we get to our polls, let's recap by taking a look at every 'free' game that was...

New year, new poll
It's a new year, and it's time for a new type of poll here on Push Square. At the beginning of each month, we're going to be asking you lot about your most anticipated PlayStation games. Now, admittedly, January isn't exactly overflowing with hype. This month's release schedule is looking decidedly dry — probably because...
Soapbox Sony's Bet on PSVR2 Is Brave and That's a Brilliant Thing
Innovate or stagnate
I saw a tweet earlier this week that basically said, amid heightened competition from Microsoft and Nintendo, Sony could do without the distraction of PSVR2. I understood where the poster was coming from: I too have been guilty of looking at this medium through the prism of an ongoing business battle, where games are ammunition...

The best free-to-play games on PlayStation 5
What are the best free games on PS5? One big advantage of modern gaming is that you can find quality experiences for free. That's very much true on PlayStation 5, which has plenty of free-to-play games that won't cost you a penny. You don't even need a PS Plus subscription to play these titles; if you...
Soapbox Don't Let F.I.S.T. Pass You By
Liam likes this Metroidvania
F.I.S.T.: Forged in Shadow Torch is a poor name for a pretty darn good game. I started and completed this Metroidvania over the Christmas holidays, and I think it's gone underappreciated. Not a world-beater by any means that'll rival the love Hollow Knight gets, but it's still an impressive first outing from TiGames. Its...
Feature Most Anticipated PS5, PS4 Games of 2022
A massive year for PlayStation
2021 wasn't an amazing year for video games in our humble opinion, but 2022 is set to offer us an embarrassment of riches. The release schedule for the first quarter alone is ridiculous on paper, and while we have no doubts that delays will quickly become a talking point, the fact of the matter is that 2022 should be...

Game of the Year Best PS5, PS4 Developer of 2021
Stars of the show
When it comes to Game of the Year, we often get caught up in talking about the games themselves, rather than the development teams who made them. As such, we think it's important to stop and appreciate the hard working people who make our favourite hobby a reality. As chosen by the Push Square editorial team, these are the...

Just to recap, subscribers get new space-faring, bug-splatting release Deep Rock Galactic alongside stylishly rough racer DiRT 5 on both PS5 and PS4. Persona 5 Strikers is the icing on...
Game of the Year #1 - Resident Evil Village
A tall order
Resident Evil 4. It always comes back to Resident Evil 4. Almost 17 years on from Capcom's horror masterpiece, it's still considered the crème de la crème of the series. Who knows if it'll ever be topped — maybe the rumoured remake could pose the question — but at least there's now a new kid on the block. Resident Evil Village at...
Feature Happy New Year from the Push Square Team
Onwards and upwards
As one unusual year comes to a close, another begins. The world is a strange place at the moment, and it doesn't look like we'll be getting back to normality any time soon. One more year we are happy to see the back of, it seems. At least we were kept occupied by PlayStation 5. Sony is selling the console as quickly as it can...

Talking Point What Are You Playing This Weekend? - New Year Edition
Welcome to 2022
Would you look at this? The Calendar Gods really were kind. Not only did we have an extra special Xmas Edition of WAYP last week, but now we've got a New Year one as well. With the arrival of 2022 comes optimism, ambitions, and, of course, lots of games. Better get that backlog cleared, folks — February is looking insane. Sammy...
Game of the Year Best PS5, PS4 RPG of 2021
Masterworks all
2021 was yet another good year for role-playing games on PlayStation. Granted, a lot of them were actually PS5 re-releases, but there were still plenty of top quality titles to go around. As decided by the Push Square editorial team, these are the best RPGs of 2021. Bronze Trophy: Persona 5 Strikers: Persona 5 Strikers is often...

Game of the Year #2 - Returnal
Helios abandoned
In one of the closest Game of the Year results we've ever had, Returnal takes a well-earned second place spot in our countdown. This is a notable release for many reasons; it's Housemarque's biggest and most ambitious game to date, it's one of only a few true PlayStation 5 exclusives, and it's the first proper attempt at a triple-A...

Soapbox Sony's First-Party Exclusives Will Shine Once Again in 2022
Horizon! God of War! Gran Turismo! More?
I imagine everyone at PlayStation is proud of how it’s navigated the pandemic, but there must be a degree of disappointment within top brass walls. Sony planned for this generation probably better than any before it, and it had talked about transitioning players at record pace. The fact that it rounded out...
Game of the Year #3 - Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart
Riveting
Critics and fans tend to subscribe to the mindset that the Game of the Year needs to be a trailblazer: innovative, original, unique. In reality, it just needs to be good. Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart, to its credit, is very good – and it flexes every last sinew of developer Insomniac Games’ technical prowess in the process. This is...

Game of the Year Top 10 PS5, PS4 Soundtracks of 2021
Play it again, Sam
If there’s one thing to always look forward to at the end of the year, it’s lists. As sure a thing as death and taxes, countdown lists may just be one of the most fun inevitabilities out there. The one offer this time is a glimpse at some of the best PlayStation music we heard in 2021. While it’s impossible to touch upon...
Soapbox Vermintide 2 Might Be My Game of the Year (But It Released in 2018)
Rats!
Warhammer: Vermintide 2 is a brilliant game. I bought it in a PlayStation Store sale ages ago, but a combination of home network issues and choppy PS4 performance made me drop it a lot sooner than I would have liked. Fast forward a couple of years or so, and I can't stop playing the bloody thing on PS5 (where it runs at a silky smooth 60...
Game of the Year #4 - Hitman 3
Good work, 47
Here’s the thing: you can’t detach Hitman 3 from the World of Assassination Trilogy as a whole. IO Interactive has created something unprecedented across two console generations here: a collection of stealth playgrounds, each intricately designed and brimming with murderous potential. Not getting caught has never felt this good –...

Game of the Year Best PS5, PS4 FPS Game of 2021
Loop the loop
In what feels like a bit of an off-year for the FPS genre, the field of nominees for this year's instalment of the best PS5, PS4 FPS game of 2021 doesn't feel quite as strong. Nevertheless, we've still whittled down the best of the best to a top four. Selected by the Push Square editorial team, these are our picks for the best...
Soapbox How Discord Will Change the Way We Play PS5, PS4 Together in 2022
We're all connected
One of the bigger stories of 2021 came when Sony announced it had invested in Discord and was working on full integration with the PlayStation Network. The news emerged shortly after Microsoft withdrew from a rumoured $10 billion buyout of the social network, making for a nice juxtaposition among those who follow the industry...
Game of the Year #5 - Psychonauts 2
All in the mind
No matter how much of a cult status the original Psychonauts holds, releasing a direct sequel more than 16 years later was always going to be a daunting prospect. Thank god Double Fine didn’t cave to those fears then because Psychonauts 2 is another game with creativity up the wazoo. Raz returns to work out who the double agent...

Game of the Year Best PS5, PS4 Story or Writing of 2021
Penned in
Stories, characters, and the writing that brings them all together are elements of video games that many (including ourselves) would consider hugely important. There's nothing quite like a gripping plot, so we wanted to highlight the games that held a particularly tight grip on our attention through high quality writing. As chosen by the...
Soapbox Voice of Cards: The Isle Dragon Roars, the Most Relaxing RPG I've Ever Played
Yoko Taro's latest is super chill, says Stephen
By all accounts, I shouldn't really like Voice of Cards: The Isle Dragon Roars. As a rule, I shy away from JRPGs, because I often find them to be too complicated, too long, too insane, or some combination of the three. I've certainly tried to get into the genre, and my longstanding attachment to...
Heavenly hell
While it's true Hades initially launched last year, it only came to PlayStation platforms a few months ago, and by the gods, it was worth the wait. It's no real surprise why the game scooped up so many awards 12 months ago; it's about as good as rogue-likes get, thanks to some slick gameplay and innovative storytelling. With the...

Game of the Year Best PS5, PS4 Remake, Remaster, or Re-Release of 2021
Worth a revisit
2021 will be remembered as a brilliant year for remakes, remasters, and enhanced PlayStation 4 to PlayStation 5 ports. Since a lot of these games tend to get overlooked for Game of the Year awards in favour of brand new titles, we thought it would be fitting to highlight our favourites. As selected by the Push Square editorial team,...
Soapbox PS5's Next-Gen PSVR Headset Is Going to Drop Jaws in 2022
A reality
Gamers can be a strange breed, you know? This is an industry that’s founded on technological innovation: it’s a beautiful blend of computing and entertainment. I don’t know about you, but I love this hobby because it never stands still: the games we play, the consoles we use – they’re always evolving. Compare the original...
Game of the Year #7 - It Takes Two
Together forever
Hardcore gamers generally don’t like playing with anyone but themselves, so when It Takes Two comes along and demands a second player be part of the fun just to start the game, it was always facing an uphill battle. Good job many overcame those fears of interacting with another person, though, because Hazelight Studios’...

Compliments of the season to you
We feel like we could copy and paste the opening sentence from our 2020 Merry Christmas message and nobody would be none the wiser: "We’re hesitant to mention it, but it’s been a strange old year, hasn’t it?" Yes, for the second full year in a row, the world hasn't quite been its normal self. Thankfully, in...

Soapbox EA Originals Was the Publisher's Secret Weapon in 2021
EA's indie push is where it's at, says Stephen
Electronic Arts gets a very bad rap these days. While I'd agree that the publisher isn't quite what it once was — and it certainly has made a bundle of mistakes over the last five years or so — it isn't quite as negative as all that. I'm not here to defend it for any missteps or misfires; that's a...
Game of the Year #8 - Knockout City
Ballin'
This will probably wind up being a contentious inclusion in our Game of the Year countdown, but it really shouldn't. Knockout City is an online-only multiplayer game with broad appeal, fuelled by frequent post-launch updates and battle pass-style progression. While many will condemn it for those reasons, we strongly believe that this title...

Of course, 2021 has been no different, with many excellent smaller titles hitting both consoles. The below are our picks for the best indie games of the year, with the Push Square editorial team selecting their...
Game of the Year #9 - Disco Elysium: The Final Cut
Case closed
Disco Elysium: The Final Cut isn't for everyone. Its unapologetically mature storytelling and methodical pacing can make it a tough nut to crack, but with a bit of patience and willingness to let yourself get lost in its dilapidated world, you'll find a gripping RPG. Playing as a middle aged detective who's suffering from a severe case...

Blame the beasts
Games that push an entire genre forward are a rarity, but that's what Guilty Gear Strive has done for fighting games. It may not be as mainstream as Street Fighter, Tekken, or Mortal Kombat, but in its visuals and its online netcode, Strive has set the bar for all future brawlers. Developer Arc System Works has been hitting home...

What are the best PS4 kids games? When most people talk about PlayStation 4, they're thinking about its (brilliant) range of games aimed at an older audience.

Blurred lines
It’s a question as old as time, but one that a lot of players still can’t seem to agree upon: what is the difference between a reboot, remaster, and remake?
