Review Marathon (PS5) - Bungie's Extraction Shooter Is Truly Brilliant, and It Only Gets Better
It's a marathon, not a sprint
There’s been a lot of heat surrounding Marathon in the lead-up to its launch. Some say it’s not what they want from Bungie, others say it's a far cry from the glory days of Halo. But cutting through all of the noise, we think Marathon is actually a bold new adventure from Bungie. It may take you a little bit to...
Review Screamer (PS5) - Finally, a Racing Game Doing Something Interesting
In its own lane
Arcade racing games still exist, but only just. The only big budget series that's still around is Forza Horizon, which is fine if you're in the mood to zip around in a fairly safe open world. The full breadth of what arcade racers can be just isn't represented these days. Fortunately, Screamer is here to remind everyone that, yes,...
Full internal audit underway
Crimson Desert dev Pearl Abyss has released a groveling apology after generative AI assets were discovered in the enormous PS5 open world game.

Feature Congratulations to Resident Evil, 30 Years Old Today and Better Than Ever
What's your favourite?
I was born in 1988 so I was still wet behind the ears when Resident Evil first released for the PS1, on 22nd March, 1996. I don’t recall my first time seeing the game, but I think Resident Evil 2 was probably the first one we owned. I distinctly remember being frightened by the opening CG cutscene, and even more terrified...

Crackdown on shovelware continues
Sony is getting more and more aggressive with shovelware on the PS Store. You may recall earlier in the year it delisted hundreds of titles from publisher ThiGames, the company behind “classics” like The Jumping Pizza. Now it’s axed hundreds more from two more publishers, with their entire catalogues nuked...
News Crimson Desert Dev to Patch PS5 RPG's 'Uncomfortable' Controls
Apologises for launch day issues
There’s a lot to love about PS5 RPG Crimson Desert, but its control scheme is not one of them. It takes cues from the worst of Rockstar’s releases, and is somehow even more cumbersome and complicated than even those. In a message on X (or Twitter), dev Pearl Abyss says it’s been listening to feedback and is...

News Gran Turismo 7 Was an Inspiration for Microsoft Flight Sim 2024's PSVR2 Mode, Coming Soon
Out early this year
We love and highly recommend Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 as it is, but there’s no doubt its PSVR2 mode will make it better. It’s just the perfect fit, isn’t it?

A kind of LinkedIn hell
Mark Cerny doesn’t post on X (or Twitter) very much, but when he drops by to tell us about his latest Platinum Trophy, it feels authentic. This exchange with AMD’s Jack Huynh, however, reads like poorly disguised PR. Alongside an image showing four different screenshots – with each game’s logo carefully overlaid in...
News Feb 2026 USA Sales: PS5 Outsells Nintendo's New Switch 2 for a Second Consecutive Month
Resident Evil Requiem a monstrous success
Sony’s five-year-old PS5 is keeping its nose in front of Nintendo’s new Switch 2, as it managed a second successive month ahead of the hybrid. While sales of the PlayStation were down year-over-year, it led the Mario maker’s machine across both units and dollar sales metrics. That may all change in...

News Street Fighter 6's Incestuous New Storyline Divides Opinion
Oh Alex, that's not right

News PickMon Drama Explodes as Pokémon, Palworld Clone Vanishes from Social Media
Can't we all be pals?

News 'A Great Showcase for PSSR 2': PS5 Pro's New Upscaler Continues to Get Rave Reviews
Practically all problems resolved
An extended analysis of Alan Wake 2, one of the original PSSR’s “problem childs”, has once again poured praise on PS5 Pro’s new upscaler.

Opinion Why Is Sony Scrapping the PSN Name?
Network nonsense
I was about to sleep last night when I saw a strange report circulating on social media: Sony is set to scrap the PSN branding. While not confirmed by the company – this communication, it seems, was only intended to be shared with devs for now – it comes from a good source and seems legit to me. So, the immediate question...
News Sony to Drop PSN Branding Later This Year, New Report Claims
Just a visual change, nothing more

News Crimson Desert's Mixed Reviews See Dev's Share Price Drop Almost 30%
Abyss
The first batch of reviews have been rolling in for Crimson Desert, and while they're pretty good, they aren't quite as hot as many expected.

News Xbox's Starfield Rockets to the Top of the PS5's Pre-Order Charts
To infinity and beyond
It looks like Bethesda’s decision to bring Starfield to the PS5 over two years after its original release is not doing it much harm. The sci-fi RPG – which received a mixed reception upon launch – has rocketed close to the top of the PS Store pre-order charts. In the US, for example, its Premium Edition is currently...

The concept art in question can be viewed...
Vampire Crawlers date and price set
We're huge fans of Vampire Survivors here at Push Square. Not only is it a tremendously compelling "bullet heaven" game, it also costs a mere £3.99/$4.99. It's about as good a bang for your buck as you're likely to find on PlayStation, and it looks like the upcoming spin-off, Vampire Crawlers, is following suit...

News PS5 Leads Resident Evil Requiem Sales as 'Consoles Are Dead' Chat Falls Flat
The silent majority
There’s been a persistent opinion, perhaps partly powered by talkative PC players, that consoles are on their way out.
