News 39 Days to Mars Is Travelling Through Space to PS4

As is par for the course these days, here's another indie title migrating over from PC to PlayStation 4. 39 Days to Mars is a cooperative adventure game about two Victorian English gents travelling to the red planet.

Hands On No Man's Sky Beyond Brings a New Lease of Life to the Ambitious Adventure
Hello again
Let's get one thing clear: at the end of the day, this is still No Man's Sky. That might sound silly, but the excitement surrounding the huge Beyond update may have had people hoping for an unrecognisable, utterly transformative new experience. Beyond does many things to the game, but at its core, this is the very same space exploration...
News Rock of Ages III: Make & Break Rolls onto PS4 in 2020
With a boulder new hook
We rather liked Rock of Ages II: Bigger and Boulder. The series is an entertaining blend of tower defence and racing, sort of. It's an oddball experience, but the act of throwing a huge boulder down a hill, dodging obstacles and aiming to smash into the castle at the bottom, is surprisingly good fun. The last game arrived on...

Disc grooves
Wargroove is pretty new on PlayStation 4. The digital version of the acclaimed strategy title has only been available for a few weeks, but it seems developer Chucklefish is ready to make its move towards retail stores.

Smooth sailing
No Man's Sky's Beyond update launched yesterday, bringing a new lease of life to the divisive space exploration game.

News Shantae 5 Has Been Officially Titled Shantae and the Seven Sirens, First Screenshots Released
As if by magic
WayForward's Shantae series is a surprisingly enduring one. Originally releasing on the Game Boy Colour in 2002, the games have come a long way, despite there only being four of them. Five, if you include the freshly named Shantae and the Seven Sirens, the upcoming new instalment. The developer has shared the first details and...
News Looks Like Spelunky 2 Has Been Delayed into 2020
Caved in
In case you'd forgotten, we're getting a sequel to the beloved roguelike platformer, Spelunky. Announced all the way back at Paris Games Week 2017, Spelunky 2 looks to build on the acclaimed original with a new look, locations, and mechanics. You can see it for yourself in last year's gameplay trailer, but we've hea
Guide PS4 Copying Update Files - Why Does It Take So Long?
Why is copying patches so slow on PS4?
A little while ago, the PlayStation 4 swapped to a new method when it comes to downloading and installing patches for your favourite games. Once you've downloaded an update, the PS4 will then begin the infamous "copying" procedure, and this can take quite some time. It's quite a frustrating part of updating...
News MediEvil on PS4 Is Looking Good in This New Dev Diary Video
No bones about it
Sir Dan is being resurrected yet again on PlayStation 4 in the remake of MediEvil, and it's not looking too shabby these days. Early trailers were pretty rough around the edges, but some recent off-screen footage suggested a big improvement. Sony's just released the above video with some brand new gameplay clips, and it looks...
News Need for Speed Heat Gameplay Trailer to Debut at Gamescom
Things are heating up
In case you've somehow missed it, the reveal trailer for Need for Speed Heat has just hit the web. It's a showy video with plenty of style, but there's something missing -- gameplay. As expected, EA's reveal of the latest entry in the series consisted merely of a short trailer to whet our appetites. Gameplay footage isn't too...

Steve Ellis is in the building
If there was any doubt about a new TimeSplitters game being in the works, let them be put to rest. Last year, Koch Media, itself owned by THQ Nordic, acquired the IP for the beloved shooter franchise. At the time, it was pretty strongly implied that a new game would be coming sooner or later. Now, in THQ Nordic's...
News Minute of Islands Is an Atmospheric, Hand Drawn Adventure Game Coming to PS4
Arty-pelago
It's hard to be totally original these days, but a striking art style will certainly help. It's what initially caught our attention when we discovered Minute of Islands; as you can see in the reveal trailer, its hand-drawn aesthetic is really lovely. This game, coming to PlayStation 4 in the spring of 2020, is about a young mechanic...
News THQ Nordic Wants Even More of Your Pre-Order Money with BioMutant Special Editions
Time to cough up
It's been quite some time since we've heard anything about BioMutant, the promising RPG from THQ Nordic. We're still no closer to a release date, but that's not stopped the publisher from announcing two very pricey premium editions of the game. The Collector's Edition offers you a figurine, an A1-sized fabric print, and the...
News Make the Ultimate Gaming Rig with PC Building Simulator, Out Today on PS4
Does not compute
Have you always wanted to join the PC master race, but lacked the funds to do so? PC Building Simulator might be the answer. This title became pretty popular when it arrived on Steam, and it's now available on PlayStation 4. That's right -- if you can't bear to be away from your computer, you can now build your dream tower right on...
Random Brilliant Spider-Man PS4 Glitch Sees the Hero Get Caught in His Own Web
Catching bugs
Marvel's Spider-Man is a wonderfully made PlayStation 4 exclusive, and fun as heck too, but open world games tend to have a couple of bugs here and there. Some of them are frustrating, but some of them are hilarious. While Insomniac Games has squashed the vast majority of issues in the superhero sandbox, some odd glitches will still...
News This Leaked Plants vs. Zombies: Battle for Neighborville Reveal Trailer Isn't Even Finished
Not ripe enough
There's having a game trailer leak online, and then there's having a work-in-progress trailer get out. That's exactly what's happened with Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare 3, or as it's now known, Plants vs. Zombies: Battle for Neighborville. The above video shows a reveal trailer, probably due for its debut at Gamescom, and it's...
News New Call of Duty: Modern Warfare PS4 Pro Gameplay Shows Off Several Multiplayer Modes
Headquarters! Domination! Cyber Attack!
When Activision lifted the lid on all things multiplayer in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare, there was a heck of a lot of gameplay. Unfortunately, it was accompanied by constant commentary, which isn't always helpful when you just want to see the game running. It's lucky, then, that developer Infinity Ward has...
Pre-orders live now
THQ Nordic is making early preparations for Crypto's arrival on PlayStation 4 in the Destroy All Humans remake.

News Countdown Clock Suggests Need for Speed Reveal Coming Later This Week
It's go time
EA's approach to the latest Need for Speed game has been slightly unusual. Ahead of E3, developer Ghost Games revealed it's working on the next instalment in the racing series, and that it'll launch in 2019, but that it wouldn't be present at the Los Angeles trade show. We're mere months away from the supposed release of this game, but...
News Knights and Bikes Finally Rides onto PS4 with August Release Date
Summer holiday
Knights and Bikes is a game we've been following for years now. Initially announced via a successful Kickstarter campaign in 2016, it's been a long journey for the development duo at Foam Sword Games. However, the gorgeous co-op action adventure is finally ready. We'll be cycling through the mud, fighting baddies with water balloons,...
News UK Sales Charts: Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled Reclaims Number One Despite Sales Decline
Coasting
You know it's a slow week in game sales when the title atop the chart is down 14 per cent. Nonetheless, Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled has pulled ahead, and takes number one once again. A lack of new releases means the chart may look familiar if you've been keeping tabs on it each week. F1 2019 and Red Dead Redemption 2 climbed back into...
