Mystery title to honk its horn before April 2015
Grand Theft Auto V may make its debut on the PlayStation 4 imminently after all, as Take-Two has revealed that subsidiary Rockstar Games will release a “next-gen” title before the end of March 2015. While the firm failed to indicate which of its critically acclaimed franchises this outing will...

Rumour PS4 Firmware Update 1.70 Could Prompt Watch Dogs Pre-Load
Don't let the file get hacked

Rumour BioWare Shepards the Mass Effect Trilogy onto PS4
Geth in
We proclaimed way back in January that 2014 would be the year of the re-release, and it doesn’t look like the compilations are showing any signs of slowing down. As spotted by NeoGAF, Chilean retailer Zmart.cl is currently listing the Mass Effect Trilogy for the PlayStation 4. No pric
Rumour Is Sony Pumping Up the Volume with a PS4 Music Player?
Turn it up
A basic music player is arguably one of the greatest oversights on the PlayStation 4 right now. Sony has admitted in interviews that it didn’t anticipate the outrage regarding the system’s inability to play MP3s, and stressed that it would
Rumour Ratchet & Clank Trilogy Takes a Shot at PS Vita
"Lawrrrence! Why did you leak the game?"
Gaming’s most likeable Lombax appears to be bringing his biggest guns to the PlayStation Vita, as Sony has now listed a version of the Ratchet & Clank Trilogy for its commercially challenged portable platform. The port popped up on popular UK outlet Shop To.net earlier in the month with a 20th June...

Why? Just 'cause

News What's Next for Prince of Persia? Ubisoft Doesn't Want You to Know Yet
A princely error
French publisher Ubisoft couldn’t keep a secret if its entire corporate future depended on it, so it’s not exactly surprising to see the organisation squirming over an errant tweet from one of its employees. Ubisoft Reflections engineer Drew James posted a message teasing a new Prince of Persia title overnight, but his entire...
Rumour Is the Next PS4 Skylanders Named Trap Team?
Caught in a trap
As with Call of Duty, it’s typically around this time of the year when Activision tends to talk about the next Skylanders game.

Rumour The Walking Dead Tucks into PS4 from 17th June
Brain biter

Rumour PS4 Exclusive Resogun May Be Getting Local Co-Op DLC
Standby for arguments
Resogun is a remarkably intense solo experience. Dodging and weaving your way through millions of voxels is a complete thrill by any standard. But as we noted in our review, the game quite notably lacks a local co-op mode. And while the online multiplayer may be fun, it's not quite the same as having a friend sitting mere...
Rumour Resident Evil 7 Will Spook PS4 into Submission at E3
Doorknobs of death
Fans of survival horror are enjoying something of a resurgence in the genre right now, as the likes of Outlast, Daylight, and The Evil Within leave us chilled to the bone.

News Could Entwined and Kill Strain Be Sony's Next Big PS4 Titles?
Platform holder trademarks unannounced games
While this editor’s sleepy head is trying not to think about the doom that this year’s E3 will set upon his body clock in just over seven weeks, it’s around this time of the year when we start to hear rumours about what’s to come during the big show. And speculation suggests that Sony may be on...
News Are the Sony Vegas Pro People Collaborating on PS4 Firmware Update 1.70?
Cutting cool clips
The share button is undoubtedly one of the PlayStation 4’s most important features.

And on that note,...

Rumour Sony Stupidly Sets PSN Maintenance for Easter Monday
Bunny boiler
There’s a long weekend on the way – but Sony seems eager to encourage you to go outside and play.

There’s nothing especially abnormal about that – aside from the fact...
Rumour PS4 Firmware Update 1.70 Right Around the Corner
Plenty of next-gen news incoming
Recent complaints on public forums and social networks confirm that gamers don’t really know what they want. Sony was lambasted throughout the entire PlayStation 3 generation for releasing too many firmware updates, and so it’s clearly made a conscious effort to release fewer big patches as opposed to lots of...
News The Possibility of a PS4 Version of Below Just Increased Again
Underneath it all
Microsoft is no longer publishing CapyGames’ intriguing roguelike Below, increasing the chances of a PlayStation 4 port in the future. The adventure was announced as an Xbox One exclusive at E3 last year, but it seems that not even Phil Spencer’s swift costume changes could hold onto the release. The title will still arrive on...

Set phasers to fun

Dubbed a “pre-sequel”, the unannounced adventure is rumoured to take place between the first and second entries in Gearbox’s first-person franchise, and is...
Rumour DriveClub May Be Parking on the PlayStation 4 on 12th June
Right in the middle of E3
Sony's handling of the seemingly never-ending delays to PlayStation 4 exclusive DriveClub has been the very definition of radio silence. Apart from a few vague comments here and there, we've really heard nothing of any note for months now. However, a recent email sent out by computer manufacturer Dell claims that the game...
Rumour The Ratchet & Clank Trilogy Will Be Defying Gravity on Vita in June
Lombax to the future
Late last year, we learned that Insomniac Games had originally planned to bring Ratchet & Clank's PlayStation 3 swansong Into the Nexus to the PlayStation Vita. While that rumour never eventuated, it now seems that the studio may also be thinking about bringing the
News Assassin's Creed: Unity Is the One PS4 Title That Can't Stay Undercover
Loose lips sink ships
For a stealth game, Assassin’s Creed: Unity is pretty lousy at keeping itself concealed. Ubisoft’s upcoming next-gen exclusive romp through the French revolution first leaked on NeoGAF, after a user supposedly shared a plane trip with an employee who revealed some details about the game. Kotaku then got its hands on some...
Rumour The Post-Apocalyptic Metro Series May Be Taking a Train to PS4
Takin' the slay train
You may recall that early last year rumours were floating around the Internet suggesting that post-apocalyptic shooters Metro: 2033 and Metro: Last Light would be making a bee-line for the PlayStation 4 in the form of upgraded ports. Considering the upgrades th

A couple of days later, Ubisoft confirmed that the rumours were indeed true, and uploaded a short cinematic trailer of the game. In anoth
News Yes, The Last of Us Is Set to Stumble onto PS4 This Year
So says PlayStation executive, anyway
Stock up on Kleenex tissues, as The Last of Us is coming to the PlayStation 4. In news more predictable than a successful Katy Perry single, PlayStation Turkey's vice president Sercan Sulun supposedly confirmed the re-release during an interview on local television. We're going off NeoGAF translations here, so...
Rumour You'll Be Riding Elephants in the Next Far Cry Game on PS4
Howdah like that?
Open world games always seem to have the same traversal options. The most common is a car, but planes, hang gliders, and superpowers are also repeat offenders. Fortunately, the unannounced Far Cry 4 is aiming to change things up, by allowing you to ride elephants through the Himalayas. Oh, and it’s all purportedly happening on...
Rumour Titanfall 2 Takes One Robotic Stride Closer to PS4
Mech it happen
The relationship between Titanfall developer Respawn Entertainment and mega company EA Games is more confounding than a magic eye puzzle. While the latter technically published the former’s brand new first-person franchise, it supposedly did so through the EA Partners programme, which was most recently responsible for failed...
Rumour Is the PS4 About to Become the Primary Platform for Call of Duty?
Turning the tides
Ever since it became a household name, the Call of Duty franchise has been associated with the Xbox brand. In lieu of true third-party exclusives, co-marketing partnerships have become increasingly important for platform holders, with Microsoft traditionally taking the lead in this area. The past couple of years have seen Sony...
Rumour Ubisoft to Leave a Voicemail Regarding Watch Dogs' Release Date Today?
Keep watching
French publisher Ubisoft is charging its smartphone ahead of a big reveal later today, which is almost certain to pertain to delayed PlayStation 4 escapade Watch Dogs.

News This Portuguese Retailer Is Certain Grand Theft Auto V Is Coming to PS4
More reasonable than Trevor
European retailers aren’t always the most reliable source, but history evidences that they definitely care less about non-disclosure agreements on the continent. As such, one Portuguese chain named Worten has told Eurogamer.pt that it’s confident that Grand Theft Auto V will release on the PlayStation 4 this year. Cou
Rumour Could PS4 Exclusive Racer DriveClub Burn Rubber Next Month?
Around the bend
Evolution Studios’ delayed next-gen racer DriveClub could be about to take to the track in a matter of weeks. The eagle-eyed folks over at PlayStation Nation caught an errant Tweet from the company in its headlights, hinting that the title is due out on 9th April. The message was deleted in record time, but there’s a
Rumour Is This a Bird, Plane, or Watch Dogs Release Date?
Woof love
Ever since its delay late last year, Ubisoft has refrained from barking on about its PlayStation 4 escapade Watch Dogs. However, leaks on Sony’s website suggest that the release may be ready for ‘walkies’ again soon, as a new trailer and deploy date are supposedly imminent. And the platform holder has adde
News Atlus Dismantles Hopes of Demon's Souls 2 on PS4
Don't rule it out just yet, though
From Software’s cult action role-playing game Demon’s Souls followed a more arduous path onto the PlayStation 3 than the characters depicted in its maddeningly masochistic campaign. Published by Sony in Japan, the platform holder actually passed on a Western release – a mistake which Worldwide Studios...
Rumour Nathan Drake to Scale PS4 in Enhanced Uncharted Collection
Jumping between generations
With a new entry in Naughty Dog’s critically acclaimed Uncharted franchise on the horizon, it seems reasonable that Sony may want to clue new PlayStation 4 adopters into the previous escapades of Nathan Drake and crew. Fascinatingly, Italian publication Games.it hypothesises that the platform holder may just do that,...
Rumour Did Destiny Put a Plasma Bullet in Sony Santa Monica's PS4 Project?
Bungie may be inadvertently to blame
With thousands of years of literature, poetry, paintings, and plays all boasting humanity’s byline, you could argue that it’s impossible to come up with a truly original idea at this point in time. Sony Santa Monica may be ruing that fact right now, as speculation suggests that Activision’s upcoming...
Rumour Sony Santa Monica's PS4 Sci-Fi Property May Have Been Jettisoned
Intergalactic excursion crash lands
Rumours regarding God of War III director Stig Asmussen’s sci-fi property have been rampant since before Kratos’ angry sandals touched the scorching sands of the Desert of Lost Souls. Last summer, Battlestar Galactica writer Michael Angeli teased the title at Comic-Con, noting that he’d been working with...
Rumour Watch Dogs' Release Date to Be Decrypted Soon
Phone home
Ubisoft may have sucked the battery life out of upcoming open world adventure Watch Dogs by delaying the title out of its intended November 2013 release window, but the French publisher appears to be eager to rebuild the hype surrounding the once hotly anticipated PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 3 product. A handful of eagle eyed...
Rumour Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes Star Appearing in New Mortal Kombat?
Finish him
It’s a good thing that 24 lead Kiefer Sutherland has plenty of practice playing Jack Bauer, because the actor may need to call upon his experience portraying the intrepid action hero in order to escape NetherRealm Studios’ in-house ninjas. Despite the developer being pretty silent since the release of superhero brawler Injustice: Gods...
Rumour Was PS4 Racer DriveClub Delayed Due to Sony's VR Headset?
