News Narrative Adventure Game Mutazione Receives Zen-Like Garden Mode in Free PS4 Update

In case you'd forgotten, the platform holder added a bunch of high-end PS4 games to the cloud-based service, including God of War, Uncharted 4: A Thief's End, and Grand Theft Auto V. The bad news is these games will be removed from PS Now from 2nd January...

News Outer Wilds Patch 1.02 Improves Technical Performance on PS4
Plus plenty more
Outer Wilds made a successful landing on PlayStation 4 a month or so back, and it's an inventive space-faring adventure you should probably check out.

News Days Gone Delivers with Cool Death Stranding Crossover Content in Latest Patch
Baby driver
Of all Sony's games, Days Gone is definitely the one most up for a bit of playful crossover nonsense.

Today, the team behind Breakpoint has...

News Tekken 7 Is Finally Getting In-Game Frame Data Alongside Additional Training Modes
Plus Harada customisation items
