News PSN Name Changing, PSone Classics, Wishlists? We Don't Buy These PS4 Firmware 5.0 Rumours
Too good to be true
What new features could Sony possibly be implementing with PlayStation 4 firmware update 5.0? It's a tough question to answer, but there are currently a bunch of "reports" doing the rounds that claim to know what's coming. Unfortunately, we're having a hard time believing them. For starters, 5.0 will apparently bring the ability...
Rumour No Man's Sky May Finally Be Getting Multiplayer
Aim for the stars
Now this is a pretty juicy rumour - especially if you're a fan of No Man's Sky. Cast your mind back to the time just after the game launched, and you'll probably remember all that outrage regarding the title's lack of multiplayer. Players tried to meet up with each other within the virtual universe, but it turned out that the...
Rumour Fresh Evidence in L.A. Noire PS4 Remaster Case
Rockstar investigating PlayStation VR support?
A few months ago, there was a rumour that suggested Rockstar was remastering Team Bondi’s detective title L.A. Noire for the PlayStation 4.

Rumour God of War PS4 Release Date Set for November 2017
Kratos won't be happy if true
We're just hours away from Sony's E3 2017 press conference, so understandably, hype levels are at blistering highs right now.

Rumour Expect a Monster Hunter World Reveal Later Today
Name now registered in Europe, too

Rumour Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus Goes Loud on 27th October
We did Nazi that coming
Surprise! Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus – a name which was teased all the way back in 2016 – will dual-wield the PlayStation 4 from 27th October. That’s according to a pulled product listing spotted on Amazon Germany, which sounds reasonably legit to us. Bethesda i
Rumour Super Street Fighter V Will Finish the Game for Free
Arcade mode, characters, more
Oof, this is one juicy rumour. Originating over on Reddit, the whispers say that Capcom is preparing Super Street Fighter V, which will essentially act as an expansion to the existing Street Fighter V. Apparently, those who already own the base game will be able to download Super Street Fighter V for...

Rumour Marvel vs. Capcom Infinite's Roster Readies Up
Who's made the cut?
Injustice 2 may be the king of the comic book brawler right now, but Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite will attempt to steal the crown from NetherRealm Studios later this year. And in-the-know NeoGAF user Ryce – who famously leaked the game in the first-place – has posted up the title’s 28 strong character roster to the message...
Rumour Bloodborne Developer Collaborating with Sony on Aztec RPG
Or so the rumours say
Have you heard the rumour about Phantom Wail? This is apparently the latest collaboration between Sony and From Software, ruling out a direct successor to Bloodborne. The story seems to originate from a Reddit post, but it references a “notorious” leaker who isn’t named, so already we’re in sketchy ter
News Is Monster Hunter Finally Coming to the PS4?
Rumours say so, but are they accurate?
Who doesn’t love a 4chan rumour? Despite the generally dreadful track record of the infamous message board, legit leaks do sometimes crop up on the site, so you can’t always disregard them outright. And this chatter about Monster Hunter 5 has been heating up of late, so we’re going to drop a quick piece...

Always believe in your soul
If you’re the kind of person who likes a bit of bling then this gold 1TB PlayStation 4 Slim may be right up your alley.

Rumour Sony May Have Scored FIFA Marketing Rights from Xbox
Back of the net
Football is fudging huge here in Europe, and do you know what else is massive on these shores? PlayStation. It always made sense for Microsoft to be marketing partners of the FIFA franchise, then, because between Champions League sponsorship and general dominance in Europe, soccer games are already associated with Sony’s system...

Fingers crossed
Rumour has it that the fantastic Life Is Strange and the underrated Killing Floor 2 will be the two free PlayStation 4 games with PlayStation Plus in June 2017.

News German Retailer Lists God Of War Collector's Edition for €199
Shields confirmed?
We've learned very little of the upcoming God of War ever since its debut at E3 last year, but a listing for a Collector's Edition of the game on a German retailer's website may just shed some new light on things. Take all of this with a grain of salt of course, but what's listed here could be noteworthy. The package is listed at...
News A New PlayStation Vita? The Ridiculously Stupid E3 Rumours Have Begun
God help us
Dear oh dear, where to even begin? There are currently rumours floating around the 'net that suggest Sony is planning on unveiling a brand new portable console at E3 next month. Supposedly, this new device will go toe to toe with the Nintendo Switch, because yes, that's a totally logical market for Sony to pursue. Now, these kinds of...
Rumour God of War Maker Working on Major PlayStation VR Title
Will apparently go down well with core fans
Sony Santa Monica is a big, big studio, so while we’re sure that the bulk of its workforce is busy beavering away on God of War, it’s probably got a bit of manpower to spare. And according to a report on VRFocus, it may be leveraging those resources to cook up a little something new for Sony’s...
News Cliff Bleszinski's LawBreakers Seemingly Teased for PS4
Fought the law
Who’s heard of LawBreakers, then? No one? It’s the game that Gears of War maker Cliff Bleszinski’s been working on forever – a kind of free-to-play first-person shooter that’s had its lunch eaten by Overwatch like so many others of its ilk. But there’s news ahead: it may be coming to the PlayStation 4 at some point in the...
News Is Warner Bros Working on a Harry Potter RPG for PS4?
You're a role-playing game, 'Arry
There are two great mysteries in life: how the heck did Ron pull Hermione and why has no one made a Harry Potter role-playing game yet?

The reasonably legit-looking snap surfaced over on GTAForums, and it's been making the rounds all afternoon.

The image above shows what certainly looks like an Assassin's Creed game, as a playable...
Rumour Far Cry Is Going Straight to the Wild, Wild West
Last chance saloon
If this rumour turns out to be true, then the entirety of Ubisoft will be praying to Clint Eastwood that Red Dead Redemption 2 gets delayed. The word on the street is that a new Far Cry game is due out in September, and it’ll apparently adopt a Spaghetti Western theme. Random? Not quite as random as the way this story started...
Rumour Egyptian Assassin's Creed to Feature Two Lead Heroes
Mummy mia
Has anyone else really missed Assassin’s Creed? The series took a year out in 2016, and it was the right decision for the fatiguing franchise – but as a big fan of the brand, this author kinda missed his annual open world fix. The good news is that a new instalment is on track for this year, and it’s rumoured to be set in Egypt...
Rumour Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Remastered Scores Separate Launch
Pass the Soap

News This Isn't Your First Look at a PlayStation All-Stars Sequel
Rubbish
Whether or not PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale was a good game is up for debate, but should there ever be a successor, it would be fascinating to see what direction Sony took.

News Marvel: Spider-Man's Swinging to PS4 in 2017
Our spider-sense is tingling
With Sony already confirmed to be Destiny 2's marketing partner this fall, and Call of Duty: WWII, Star Wars Battlefront 2, and – fingers crossed – Red Dead Redemption 2 all expected to follow, this holiday's already looking pretty stacked for the PlayStation 4. But it wouldn't be the year of dreams without more:...
Rumour Call of Duty: WWII Images and Art Leak

News Kratos' New Voice Actor Thinks God of War's Coming to PS4 in 2017
Chaos awaits
First there were the Father's Day ads in Spain, and now Kratos' new voice actor has listed God of War for 2017 release.

Rumour Destiny 2 Drops on 8th September Claims Leaked Poster

The former's a fantastic enhanced port of the Vita platformer, and the latter's just...
Rumour Assassin's Creed Egypt's Looking More and More Likely
Empires of the Sultan
Outside of a remastered compilation, Assassin's Creed remained in the Animus last year, giving Ubisoft a little more time to bring the brand back with a bang after a bit of oversaturation in the years prior. And 2017 will supposedly see the release of Empires, an Egyptian outing that promises to restore the series' reputation...
Rumour Middle-earth: Shadow of War Is Coming Soon to PS4
Supposed sequel's box art leaks

News There's No Truth to the Rumours of a Sucker Punch Spaghetti Western
Well, bye
A Reddit rumour claims that inFAMOUS developer Sucker Punch is working on a Spaghetti Western for the PlayStation 4, but there's no truth to it as far as we can tell.

Rumour This Destiny 2 Leak Was Posted on Reddit So It Must Be News
Yes, we know we're writing a story on it
There comes a time when you have to sit down, take a hard look at what you're seeing, and just try to tell it like it is.

Rumour GameStop Lists Far Cry 5 as a 2017 Release
Shady
Rumours originating from GameStop are always a little shady so take this one with a grain of salt, but a listing for a Far Cry 5 has appeared on the retailer's website. The post comes with a release date of 26th November, which puts the title's launch on a Sunday, another nail in the coffin of this rumour. Despite the lack of plausibility,...

News Push Square to Doubt These L.A. Noire PS4 Remaster Rumours
WTF?
There are rumours that Rockstar's readying a remaster of… Well, er, L.A. Noire.

Rumour Tekken 7 Launches Early June on PS4
Summer slugfest
Jeez, the Tekken 7 rumour train has really left the station today.

The retailer currently has a page for the title's...
Rumour Vampire Fighter Eliza Returns in Tekken 7's Deluxe Edition
Along with an extra game mode
Okay, who remembers Eliza, the very-anime vampire from free-to-play title Tekken Revolution? Boasting projectile attacks and a crazy look, she was something of a divisive addition to the character roster, but despite her odd nature, it looks like she's returning in Tekken 7 - but only if you nab the so-called deluxe...
Rumour Sucker Punch's Next Game Is a Brand New Property
Fresh ideas
Sucker Punch's next game will not be an inFAMOUS sequel, but an all-new intellectual property. That's according to industry know-it-all Shinobi602, who alluded as much in a NeoGAF post overnight. While we try to steer clear of the "insider" bubble, the poster's track record speaks for itself; he teased the likes of Horizon: Zero Dawn and...
News Spider-Man PS4's Plot Details Probably Haven't Leaked
Renew your vows
The plot for Insomniac Games' upcoming PlayStation 4 exclusive Spider-Man title has… Probably not leaked.

While the site does have some kind of track record...
Rumour Warner Bros Montreal Scraps Suicide Squad Game
Harley fin
Word is that Warner Bros Montreal has scrapped its long-in-development Suicide Squad game – despite it being in production for two years.

Oh boy, this is one heck of a rumour. According to VGLeaks - a site that's been hit and miss in the past with its information leaks - Square Enix has a huge year lined up to celebrate Final Fantasy's 30th anniversary.
