News Sony Dismisses Sony Pictures and PlayStation Merger Rumours
Thank God
Sony has rubbished rumours that it's on the verge of merging its movie division with its gaming business. The story, which broke on the New York Post, proposes a plan in which the Sony Pictures and Sony Interactive Entertainment subsidiaries would be merged into one entity under the leadership of current PlayStation chief Andrew House...
Rumour Final Fantasy VII Remake, XIII Trilogy, Collection of VII, VIII, IX Coming to PS4 in 2017
Too good to be true
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. And by huge, we mean absolutely massive - like, probably too massive for this rumour to be entirely true. Still,...
News Could PaRappa the Rapper Be About to Spit into PSX 2016?
Gotta believe
Kick, punch, it's all in the mind – or is it? The ever eagle-eyed Gematsu has spotted a new rating for a game called PaRappa the Rapper on the Korean classifications board. The filing was submitted by Sony Interactive Entertainment recently, though a platform frustratingly isn't listed. So
Rumour Dragon Quest Heroes II Confirmed for Western Release on PS4 Next Year
It's probably going to be at PSX
Well, well, well, what do we have here? Spotted by the always eagle-eyed Wario64 over on Twitter, retailer Best Buy has Dragon Quest Heroes II up for pre-order. The action role-playing game sequel has not yet been confirmed for a Western release, but it's always been on the cards - we honestly thought that it would...
Rumour December PS Plus PS4 Games Leaked on PlayStation Store
What do we have here?
See the image that we've embedded above? That PlayStation Plus banner is sitting on the European PlayStation Store right now. It obviously has 'November Monthly Games' written on it, but neither of the games that are pictured were part of this month's line up, suggesting that these two titles will be heading December's offering...
News Marvel vs. Capcom 4 Rumour Keeps Up Its Combo, Supposedly Coming 2017
And yes, it'll apparently be at PSX
With the rumour mill in full swing, we've been hearing a lot of crazy whispers over the last week or so as we near Sony's PlayStation Experience 2016 event. One rumour that we decided was worth reporting on just a few days ago, Marvel vs. Capcom 4 will supposedly show up at the PlayStation maker's show - and now...
News Could Marvel vs. Capcom 4 Lift Attack PSX 2016?
Clash of titans
The rumour mill has officially entered overdrive ahead of PlayStation Experience 2016 next week, with the net outcome presumably being that there are going to be a lot of people let down next weekend. Marvel vs. Capcom 4 is the latest title to hit the likes of N4G, with a NeoGAF poster suggesting that an announcement may be made as...
Rumour Sam Drake to Star in Standalone Uncharted 4 Spin-Off
A thief's beginning?
Nathan Drake will cameo in one final adventure, but it's his brother Sam who will take the lead in Uncharted 4: A Thief's End's standalone story spin-off. The all-new adventure – which will apparently be announced at PSX 2016 next week – will allegedly launch early next year, and will see Drake "handing over the adventuring...
News Could PSN Name Changes Be Right Around the Corner?
Changes are afoot behind-the-scenes
It's by far the most requested feature on the PlayStation Network, but it looks like name changes could about to become a reality. Temper your expectations because this rumour stems from an Unreal Engine update, but it mentions that Sony has recommended all PlayStation Network accounts now be identified by their...
Rumour Diablo III May Be Getting a New Playable Character Class
Back from the dead
Diablo III, also known as The Game That Keeps on Giving, may be getting a brand new character class at some point. The speculation is based on a piece of concept art that's signed by Blizzard art director John Mueller, and features two necromancers raising the dead. The picture was found on one of the company's servers, and once...
News Eidos Montreal May Be Making the Next Tomb Raider Game
What does that mean for Crystal Dynamics?
Remember that Shadow of the Tomb Raider rumour we reported on earlier? The ever-reliable Jason Schreier of Kotaku has suggested that it's legit. But there's more: Eidos Montreal, perhaps best known for the recent Deus Ex releases, may be taking the reins of the franchise from Crystal Dynamics.
News Has the Next Tomb Raider Title Been Excavated Already?
Crofty
We live in an era where fraudsters 3D print Nintendo consoles in order to "out" them, so we've no idea if this Shadow of the Tomb Raider leak is genuine or not – but seeing as an Assassin's Creed game was once revealed on a plane, we're going to file this one in the 'maybe' pile. A Reddit user has u
Rumour Red Dead Redemption 2 Takes Aim with a Trailer This Thursday
Keep your peepers peeled
So, Red Dead Redemption 2 - or Red Dead Revenge, Red Dead Revolution, Red Dead Return of the Jedi, whatever the heck you want to call it - is all but confirmed. Rockstar is clearly gearing up towards some sort of official announcement or reveal, so rumours of an imminent trailer come as no real surprise. According to Hugh...
Rumour Is This Your First Look at Egyptian Assassin's Creed?
Oh Mummy
Assassin's Creed may be staying in the Animus longer than expected, but a first screenshot purported to be taken from the latest entry has apparently leaked online. It shows a pause menu alongside what appears to be a wireframe pyramid. The list of options shown on the toolbar include crafting, and a tooltip mentions that you can upgrade...
Rumour Destiny 2 Shooting For a Fresh Audience, Will Be a Totally New Game
Say goodbye to your exotics
Looking at Destiny from the perspective of a big publisher like Activision and an ambitious studio like Bungie, Destiny 2's inevitable fate is perhaps easy to determine. If the franchise is to expand and thrive, it can't just keep relying on yearly expansions and, if you'll pardon the pun, sticking to its guns. With every...
Rumour MLB The Show Developer Sony San Diego Shuttered?
Caught out
MLB The Show rarely gets much coverage on websites like ours, but it's a strong seller for Sony in the United States every year. However, reports are swirling that the studio may have been shut down. Not exactly the kind of news that will go down well at a time when the Japanese giant seems to be attracting waves of negative press. We...
News No, PS4 Pro Game Patches Won't Cost You Money
Developer weighs in on latest rumour
Right, so there's been a rumour spreading like crazy around the web that you'll actually have to pay for PlayStation 4 Pro updates. In other words, when a game gets a Pro update, supposedly increasing its graphical prowess or technical performance, you'll have to pay to download it. This rumour originally stemmed...
News Bethesda Won't Comment on Fallout: New Orleans Rumours
Crawl out through the Fallout
Last month, we reported on a trademark for something called Fallout: New Orleans. Almost as soon as the news got out, the 'net was awash in speculation, with many hoping and praying that Bethesda was going to allow another studio to have a crack at the Fallout franchise, much like Obsidian did with Fallout: New Vegas on...
News PS4 Pro Doesn't Appear to Have a 4K Blu-ray Player
4K off
In what may be the first bloody nose that Sony's sustained this generation, the PlayStation 4 Pro won't come with a 4K Blu-ray drive. The platform holder didn't mention Blu-ray once during its press conference this evening, and now a slew of senior reporters in New York are claiming that the console won't support Ultra High-Definition discs...
Rumour PS4K Neo Launches This Week According to Report
That was fast
We're now a couple of days away from a Sony press conference, so that can only mean one thing: rumours, and lots of them. This latest whisper comes from the Financial Times via GameSpot, who report that the PlayStation 4K, codenamed Neo, may well release later this week. Wait, what? As many of you are no doubt aware, Sony is hosting a...
Rumour Red Dead Redemption Is Being Remastered for PS4
Legend of the West
Hmmmmm, we're not quite sure what to make of this one. According to Korean publication Game Focus, PlayStation 3 masterpiece Red Dead Redemption is being remastered for the PlayStation 4. The site doesn't note a specific source, but claims that the rumour has been floating around since last month, with whispers from North America...
Video How Small Is the Rumoured PS4 Slim?
Size comparison
So, the PlayStation 4 Slim has leaked. Sony's yet to make a comment on these images just yet, but the sheer number of them taken from different angles suggests that they're almost certainly real – although nothing's legit until you hear it directly from the horse's mouth. That said, we have been in contact with someone who purports...
Rumour PS4 Slim Hardware Images Allegedly Leak Online
And they're very believable
There were rumours that Sony may announce a PlayStation 4 Slim alongside the upgraded Neo console, and it may just have leaked. Potentially. In this age of 3D printers and elaborate hoaxes, these photographs of a console shell can't be taken as definitive proof – but they look pretty darn authentic from where we're...
Rumour LEGO Harry Potter Collection to Earn Five Points for PS4
You're a remaster, 'Arry
Assassin's Creed Ezio Collection isn't the only PlayStation 4 remaster to leak on a ratings board today: LEGO Harry Potter Collection was also listed for Sony's new-gen system in Brazil. Assuming that the nation's not totally drunk on Olympic fever, this unexpected package will presumably compile updated versions of LEGO...
News Requiescat in Pace! Is Ezio's Assassin's Creed Trilogy Coming to PS4?
Italian stallion
Ubisoft's taken several stabs at a new Assassin's Creed protagonist over the years, but none of them have stuck like Ezio Auditore – his story ended years ago, but he's still fondly remembered by fans, after all. And it looks like, in the absence of a new entry in the historical series this year, the publisher's looking to bring...
Rumour Fallout: New Orleans Logo Trademarked
Could be a fake
With mod support still yet to come to Fallout 4's PS4 edition, a new game in the series is probably on the bottom of many people's wishlists. Yet that could be what Bethesda is planning, as a logo for Fallout: New Orleans (discovered by NeoGAF user ekim) has been trademarked in Europe, leading many people to believe that this could...
Rumour Blimey! Final Fantasy XV May Be Delayed on PS4
Noctis again
Holy moly, there's a headline that we never expected to write again. Despite being announced back when this author was a teenager (!!!), the long-awaited Final Fantasy XV finally appeared to be on track for its 30th September launch. But according to one website, Square Enix may be about to throw a massive spanner in the works, by...
News Darksiders Will Trot to the PS4 This Year, Apparently
War never changes
The original Darksiders game – which first launched all the way back in 2010 – will saddle up and ride to the PlayStation 4 this year, claims Spanish site Nextn. According to the publication, the port was announced by Nordic Games at Gamepolis 2016 in Malaga this weekend. The European publisher purchased the rights to the...
News Dead Rising's PS4 Remasters May Ravage You in September
The best of West
We already know that three Dead Rising games are set to rot the PlayStation 4 in the near future, but an Xbox Store listing may have dated the last-gen titles for September. Trophies for the original game in Capcom's undead series leaked earlier in the month, of course, but the publisher then confirmed that it would be joined by...
Rumour Lara Croft's Rise of the Tomb Raider Rushes PS4 on 11th October
And it may not be cheap
Ex-Xbox One exclusive Rise of the Tomb Raider will purportedly shimmy to the PlayStation 4 on 11th October, assuming that a product listing on the Italian arm of GameStop is accurate. The date's a Tuesday which isn't necessarily in line with typical European releases, but publisher Square Enix may be planning a simultaneous...
News Amazon Readies for Release of New PS4 Console
Spanish arm expects new system on 13th October
Amazon Spain has added a new product page for a brand new PlayStation 4 console set to release on 13th October, prompting speculation that it could be the anticipated PS4K – or Neo as it's also known. The listing includes a €399.99 price point, which is exactly what we'd expect the upgraded console...
Rumour Gravity Rush 2 Floats to Japanese PS4s on 1st December
Purrrr-fect
Kat will arrive in time for Christmas it seems, as a Japanese retailer has listed PlayStation 4 exclusive Gravity Rush 2 for release on 1st December. Sony was set to officially announce the launch date during a press event on 19th July, but seeing as the aforementioned date is a Thursday – when titles typically release in Japan – we...
News Could There Be a Secret Ending to Resident Evil 7's Demo?
The finger and the axe
So, we posted our First Impressions of the Resident Evil 7 demo a couple of days ago, and we liked it. We walked through the back door and also picked up the phone upstairs, with both endings concluding in a punch to the face from the newly named "family man". And that's the end of the demo, right? Maybe not. Within the demo,...
E3 2016 Sony May Have Pulled Its Big E3 2016 Conference Closer
But what was it?
While Sony's E3 2016 press conference was stacked with untold riches of first-party titles, we did think that it was odd how the platform holder practically opened with Days Gone – and then closed with it as well. This has led to some speculation that the organisation changed its schedule, and while it's possible that the...
E3 2016 Final Fantasy XV Will Apparently Appear at Microsoft's Press Conference
Noct like this
For obvious reasons, we won't be covering Microsoft's imminent E3 2016 press conference, but it's worth pointing out that Final Fantasy XV will apparently be there. If you've been keeping up over the past couple of days, you'll know that the American company's presser has been leaking like crazy, so this rumour at least seems...
E3 2016 Is Grow Up the Sequel to Grow Home?
A new leaf?
The European games ratings board, PEGI, may have inadvertently stolen a little of Ubisoft's thunder. A page on its website currently lists a rating for a new game, entitled Grow Up. It sounds to us like a sequel to the cutesy, 3D platformer Grow Home, with PEGI's rating of 3"" backing this up somewhat. Another interesting tidbit is the...
E3 2016 Wolfenstein: The New Colossus May Be the Next Title from Machine Games
Shadow of the Colossus
A dismal Bethesda press conference concluded without any mention of the rumoured Wolfenstein 2 – or did it? Eagle-eyed fans spotted reference to The New Colossus in the media briefing's inspired DOS opening, with its release date blanked out. It's safe to assume that this is what Machine Games is working on – even though...
News Could There Be an Even Greater Crash Bandicoot Troll on the Cards?
Worse than Shawn Layden's shirt
Not like this – please, not like this! While your humble host was warring with faulty pre-E3 2016 hardware, a Singapore-based retailer named Qisahn has been busy listing a PlayStation 4 exclusive version of Skylanders: Imaginators – which will supposedly include Crash Bandicoot. As the Kaiser Chiefs once sang, we...
News There's Mounting Speculation That Knack's Coming Back
Cerny not?
Knack, the much maligned PlayStation 4 launch title, appears to be on the verge of a comeback. A Taiwanese animator listed the title on her resume earlier in the year, and now "renowned" industry "insider" Shinobi602 has been teasing the title on NeoGAF. It's not the strongest source that we've ever based a story upon, but the
Rumour The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim - The Definitive Edition Spotted Online for PS4
Dovahkeen
Mounting evidence is always a good sign that a rumour's going to turn out to be true, so fans of Skyrim should be rubbing their hands together in anticipation right now. As spotted by NeoGAF, online retailer Base currently has The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim - The Definitive Edition up for pre-order.
Rumour Batman and The Flash Face Off in Leaked Injustice 2 Art
Immortal kombat
Remember the rumour about Injustice 2? Looks like this is your very first, blurry, potato-cam look at the title. In an age of uber-expensive smartphones, the Vaseline smeared shot has thrown us off, but this appears to be original artwork – and, let's be honest, the game is guaranteed to be in development, isn't it? The character...
News Bethesda to Bring Prey 2, The Evil Within 2, and Wolfenstein 2 to E3 2016
2 much
Bethesda's press conference at E3 2015 seemed like a fancy way of announcing Fallout 4, so we were taken aback when it revealed that it would be repeating the song and dance this year. But apparently it's got plenty to show, with rumours swirling that in addition to a remastered version of The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, it's also going to...
Rumour The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Is Being Remastered for PS4
Perhaps it'll work this time?
Sharpen up your Fus Ro Dah chops, because Bethesda is apparently remastering The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim for the PlayStation 4. The legendary role-playing game – which sold approximately a bajillion copies on last-gen platforms – will apparently ship with mods, all of the original's expansion packs, and improved...
Rumour Dead Rising 4 Leaks, But May Be Skipping PS4
West's best
Dead Rising's never really felt like a PlayStation franchise. The original launched too early for the PlayStation 3, despite it getting "ported" to the Nintendo Wii. Dead Rising 2 and spin-off Off the Record did hit Sony's system, but the game's prequel episodes were exclusive to the Xbox 360. And then, of course, Dead Rising 3 launched...
Rumour Batman, Superman to Brawl in Injustice 2 on PS4
Clash of the titans
We try not to run unsourced stories here at Push Square, but this one's more obvious than the Box Office eventually milking every comic book character dry: Injustice 2 is in development and is about to be announced. The rumour comes courtesy of a French site's "inside sources" – but let's be realistic, it's obviousl
Rumour Titanfall 2 Will Rope in PS4 Players with Grappling Hook, Bigger Maps
Due out in October, apparently
Remember, a few years ago, when bow and arrows started popping up in tons of different games? Well, this year's equivalent appears to be the grappling hook. Not content with putting in an appearance in Uncharted 4: A Thief's End, it seems like the mechanic will be added to Titanfall 2. That's according to a Reddit...
Rumour Here's an Early Glimpse of Destiny's Next Expansion
Ironing things out
Destiny's upcoming expansion, of which we've known very little about until now, appears to have leaked. The add-on's key artwork appeared on Reddit overnight, and sources familiar with Bungie have apparently confirmed to Kotaku that it's legitimate. As you can see from the above image, the expansi
News Siren: Blood Curse May Be Sightjacking PS4
Hanuda horror
Japan Studio's wacky PlayStation 3 survival horror Siren: Blood Curse may be sightjacking the PlayStation 4 in the near future. The title popped up on the Korean Ratings Board overnight under its Western name – it was dubbed Siren: New Translation in its native Japan and Asia – indicating that some kind of remaster may very well be...
Rumour Resident Evil 7 to Return to Horror Roots on PS4
P.T. designer promisingly on board
Capcom is apparently preparing for a "full-scale offensive" with regards to the Resident Evil franchise towards the back-half of this year, and now respected video game consultancy gaffer Serkan Toto has shed a little light on what we can expect. Writing on Twitter, the Kantan Games chief said that the "entire game...
