News Dynasty Warriors 9 PS4 Patch 1.03 Promises to Improve Poor Frame Rate
Let's hope it works
After many years of waiting, Dynasty Warriors 9 is finally here -- but it's proved to be a divisive release. Critics appear torn on the title's open world and the new systems that it brings, but if there's one thing that we can surely all agree on, it's that the game runs like crap. As mentioned in our review, the title...
News Mass Effect: Andromeda's Multiplayer Is Still Being Updated
Clearly it's making money
Last summer, BioWare stated that it would be -- rather prematurely -- ending support for Mass Effect: Andromeda, and for fans, hopes of any meaningful single player downloadable content went down the drain. However, despite leaving the game's oft criticised campaign behind, the developer's been tweaking the title's...

First discussed by Tekken director Katsuhiro Harada at the Tekken World Tour finals last month, Tekken 7 will be receiving a potentially very important update on PlayStation 4 next week.

Dibs on Ignis
Final Fantasy XV is now one year old, and although we may not be the biggest fans of what Square Enix has added to the game over the last 12 months, we have to give the publisher props for the continued support.

News Changes to Endgame Systems Planned in Big Update for Destiny 2
Reload
Bungie is promising changes to how many of Destiny 2's systems work.

However, as is usually the case with a...

News Tekken 7 Input Lag Is Being Improved on PS4
Update expected this year
Since its launch earlier in the year, Tekken 7 on PlayStation 4 has been criticised for the amount of input lag that it has.

Broken fixes?
A week ago, Assassin's Creed Origins got a huge post-launch patch. Update 1.03 added loads of stuff across the board while also fixing a whole list of smaller issues.

News The Witcher 3 Is Getting Another PS4 Pro Patch, This Time to Fix Crashes
It never ends
At first, CD Projekt Red said that it wasn't going to release a PS4 Pro patch for The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt. Then it said that it would. Then we waited a few months.

News Rainbow Six: Siege's PS4 Patch Is Busting Entire PS4 Consoles
Maybe don't download it
The new patch for Rainbow Six: Siege is probably best avoided for now, as there are reports that it’s bricking entire PlayStation 4 consoles.
