Rumour PS5 Is More Powerful Than Project Scarlett
But no one really knows for sure
Microsoft was very specific when introducing its next-gen system Project Scarlett, describing it as “the most powerful console we’ve ever made”. That may have been deliberate, as word on the street is that the PlayStation 5 is currently the more capable of the two devices, although that’s hearsay from the E3...
Rumour New Final Fantasy VII Remake Trailer Drops Tonight, Ahead of Square Enix E3 Showcase
Cloudy forecast
There's a Final Fantasy VII concert taking place at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles tonight at 6pm Pacific (that's 2am UK time), and supposedly, it's going to host a brand new Final Fantasy VII Remake trailer. This rumour comes from the ever-reliable ZhugeEX, who says that a "full trailer" for the upcoming remake will be shown...
Rumour Assassin's Creed Odyssey Story Creator Mode to Be Announced at E3 2019
The pieces fall into place
Okay, you'll have to bear with us on this one, because it's a pretty crazy rumour that comes in two parts. The first is that all the way back in April, Reddit managed to nab a juicy screenshot of a post from Ubisoft community manager Dominik Voigt. The post in question spoke of a "Story Mode Creator" for Assassin's Creed...
Rumour Ubisoft will Announce Rainbow Six Quarantine at E3 2019
Sick
It's that time of year again. E3 is just about to kick off, and the weeks leading up to the event are always rich with rumours and leaks. One publisher that's fallen victim to this is Ubisoft, which has had reveals for games like Ghost Recon: Breakpoint, Watch Dogs Legion, and Roller Champions spoiled ahead of time. By the looks of it, we might...

Cor, blimey

Rumour PSVR Support Could Be Coming to Dreams Early Access Today
Update: Scratch that
Update: Never mind. Original story: Well, this came out of nowhere.

However, we're now seeing reports that it could turn up much sooner than that. The developer...
Rumour Death Stranding Is a Timed PS4 Exclusive, Coming to PC
Update: Or maybe not?
Update: Antonio Fucito has commented on this rumour, stressing that Death Stranding's purported timed exclusivity is based on Kojima Productions' original announcement with PlayStation.

Rumour Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Release Date Leaked Ahead of Reveal
Intelligence breach
Well, that didn't take long, did it? Activision announced the time it will be revealing the latest Call of Duty, and a release date has apparently already been leaked. Ironically, it seems to have come from an official place. Some subscribers to Call of Duty's YouTube channel have spotted the scheduled debut trailer for Call of...
Rumour The Last of Us: Part 2 Release Date Internally Delayed to 2020
Bloody 'Ellie
We’ve been hearing for many months now that Naughty Dog was targeting a 2019 release date for The Last of Us: Part 2, but with news emerging that Death Stranding may deploy during the holidays, it sounds like Ellie’s sophomore effort has been internally pushed back. This can’t be considered a de
Rumour Death Stranding's Release Date May Have Leaked
Didn't keep you waiting, huh?
There’s strong speculation that Death Stranding may release soon. The game – which is getting a big blowout later today – was believed to be a long way away, but a post on PlayStation’s official Taiwanese Facebook page suggests that it’ll deploy on 8th November. And just to be clear: that’s this year...

News The Last of Us 2 State of Play Rumour Looking More and More Unlikely
It can be for nothing
Update: Well, it's been several hours since this rumour surfaced, and there's no sign of a State of Play announcement. There's a slim chance that we could hear something later tonight, but at this point, we're not holding our breath. Does this mean the rumour surrounding the supposed trailer is also false? Not necessarily, but...

Rumour Destroy All Humans to Return to Earth at E3 2019
Something something Crypto-currency
You know there isn't long to go before E3 when some ropey rumours start coming out of the woodwork. One that's starting to get a bit of attention is a questionable theory that the open world alien action series Destroy All Humans will be making a comeback, appearing at this year's LA show. This rumour harks back...

News Could Ghostbusters: The Video Game Be Sliming PS4?
Taiwanese ratings board reckons so
If you never played the likeable Ghostbusters: The Video Game on the PlayStation 3, then you may be hyped to hear that the 2009 tie-in could be about to cross streams with the PlayStation 4. A leaked Taiwanese rating for Ghostbusters: The Video Game Remastered certainly suggests as much, and while the Xbox One is...
Or he could just be trolling
The second State of Play broadcast from Sony is tomorrow, and despite the platform holder outlining what to expect, rumours have been swirling about what else might crop up during the 10-minute presentation. In addition to a look at the MediEvil remake, Sony has promised the reveal of a brand new game, but word on the...

Rumour May 2019's PS Plus Games Possibly Leaked by PS4 Menu Screenshot
Seems legit
We're due an official announcement on May's PlayStation Plus lineup later today, but a screen grab from a Russian PS4 user appears to have outed them early -- if it's real, of course. An image shared on ResetEra, which you can see below, indicates that we could be getting a duo of excellent, if small, titles: Overcooked and
Rumour Mortal Kombat 11's Entire DLC Roster May Have Leaked
Spoilers, obviously
Mortal Kombat 11 is not out until next week, but some lucky street fighters have already got their fists on the sequel.

In fact, a hacked version of the Nintendo Switch edition means...
News Insiders Claim That Next Xbox Is More Advanced Than PS5
It begins
Sony officially unveiled the first details regarding the PlayStation 5 this week, catching the industry somewhat by surprise in the process.

Of course, Xbox chief Phil Spencer alluded in Los Angeles last year that it will...
News Star Wars Actress: You're Gonna Die When You See Horizon: Zero Dawn's Sequel
"I know some secrets"
It looks like Guerrilla Games is working on a multiplayer title, but the colossal Dutch studio is big enough to support multiple projects now, and we suspect few of you will be surprised to learn that it’s beavering away on a follow-up to the wildly successful Horizon: Zero Dawn. Speaking at a Star Wars convention, actress...
News PS5 Will Offer 'PS Plus Premium', Says Nonsensical Rumour
It's that time again
Oh hell yeah, it's for another ridiculous PlayStation 5 rumour! This one comes from an anonymous post from a European developer who is supposedly working on a PS5 launch title.

Rumour Borderlands 3 Release Date Discovered By Fan
It seems to add up
If you watched the dreadful Gearbox PAX stream the other day, where Borderlands 3 was officially announced, then you'll know that the developer just loves hiding secret messages in trailers for its games.

Yes, you read that correctly. Courtesy of internet scuttlebutt Liam Robertson in...
News There Are Fake PS5 Controller Photographs Circulating
Follow the white rabbit
We’d put money on the PlayStation 5 still being a good 18 months away, but that means it’s ripe for the odd rumour or three, right? What about clearly fake, mock-up photographs? Well, we’re off, with our first “look” at the DualShock 5 – except this is less authentic than a Hollywood smile. The bogus input device...
News There Are All Sorts of Rumours Flying Around About Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4
If that's even the game's name

Rumour EA Access Spotted on Brazilian PlayStation Store
Is it coming to PS4?
There's nothing like a ropey image to lend credence to a rumour, is there? You may recall publisher EA mention during a conference call that it plans to bring its subscription service, EA Access, to "another major platform" in 2019. Many assumed this major platform to be PlayStation 4, despite Sony's initial stance against it,...
Rumour Lady Gaga Will Be in Cyberpunk 2077, Apparently
A video game star is born?
Another day, another Cyberpunk 2077 rumour. CD Projekt Red's highly anticipated sci-fi RPG seems to be one of those games that generates a lot of hearsay, some more plausible than others. It was only a few days ago that a rumour was going around suggesting a 2019 release date for the game is on the cards which, let's face...
Rumour Cyberpunk 2077 Release Date Set for 2019 According to Studio Leak
We're not sold

Sick skills
Devil May Cry 5's been out for a few days now, so naturally, people have started trawling through the game's files on PC.

That in itself isn't so surprising, but supposedly, the code hints at a couple of...

Rumour The Last of Us: Part 2 2019 Release Date Speculation Intensifies
Here we are again
Here's a rumour that just won't go away: The Last of Us: Part II is set to release this year. It's long been suggested that Naughty Dog's sequel could be Sony's killer 2019 release, and it does seem to make some sense when you stop and think about it. Between this, Ghost of Tsushima, and Death Stranding, for example, The Last of...

Rumour Overkill's The Walking Dead Seemingly Cancelled on PS4
Fans receive refunds
Overkill's The Walking Dead was panned by many when it launched on PC late last year, and then, following the criticism, the console version received an indefinite delay in January.

News No, Tetris 99 Isn't Available on PSP
Or any other PlayStation platform
One of the most surprising announcements to come out of last night's Nintendo Direct was for a brand new free-to-play Tetris title. It's called Tetris 99, and pits 99 online players against each other in a battle royale style free for all. It sounds bonkers, and it kind of is, but it genuinely looks like a great...

Apex Legends

News The Last of Us: Part II Coming 'Very Soon' According to Composer
Could mean anything
When is The Last of Us: Part II coming out? People seem to be split on whether the hotly anticipated sequel will be arriving this year or next.

The Joker's having a laugh
Rumours of a new Batman: Arkham title being in development have been doing the rounds for years at this point, and we guess that it's time for another one.

Rumour Resident Evil 2 PS4 Demo Could Release This Week
We'll bite
A Resident Evil 2 demo is coming -- Capcom confirmed that some time ago -- but could it be releasing later this week? From where we're sitting, the evidence is starting to add up.

News Don't Pay Too Much Attention to New SOCOM Speculation
New Year, same silliness
There’s a laundry list of franchises that fans would like Sony to bring back, but SOCOM probably sits somewhere near to the top. As it’s a New Year, then, we may as well pick up where we left 2018: with rubbish rumours. Our good friend Tidux is back, telling his followers that a new instalment in the multiplayer military...

A new age

Put two and two together and you have to assume that we'll see a...
Rumour Will the Crash Team Racing PS4 Remake Drift Onstage at The Game Awards?
It's happening?
We've been half-expecting a remake of Crash Team Racing due to the success of Vicarious Visions' Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy. It'd be very welcome; a return of one of PlayStation's best kart racers would not only be popular among fans, it'd also fill a gap in the market for a quality arcading racing title on PS4. Well, if this is...
