Meanwhile, PS4 players got a no-frills localisation of the...
News Trails from Zero PS4 Update Teased
Coming "soon"
Trails from Zero hasn't had an update on PS4 since its release back in September — and that's because it hasn't really needed one. The game runs perfectly fine on Sony's last-gen system, but as noted in our Trails from Zero PS4 review, it's a shame that additional improvements — upgrades available on PC and Nintendo Switch,...
News Synth Riders Closes Out the Year with Merry Synthmas Update
Yet another free song!
It sure feels like we were just talking about Synth Riders, doesn't it? The Groovin' Essentials pack launched earlier this month, but the team over at Kluge Interactive isn't content to have that close things out for the year.

News More Info About Need for Speed Unbound's Post-Launch Support Coming in January
Criterion isn't done yet
Need for Speed Unbound arrived to little fanfare earlier this month. It's a shame, because the PS5 arcade racer is really rather good — probably the best the series has been in a long time.
