These retro style brawlers are picking some awesome IPs:
TMNT
Terminator 2
Marvel
Power Rangers
And now He-man?
That gives me hope that we could eventually get The Thundercats.

I'm shocked that they are adding Legends onto the base game again. I thought for sure Sony would want to spin it off into a live service game.

@PuppetMaster I wondered about that, Chinese people saying "codswallop" doesn't sound right lol.

Hoping to see more Fairgames.

And Ninja Theory were promoting Hellblade for PS5 so swings and roundabouts.

So he just assumed? You'd think in his position that he would be above making mindless speculation that you see in comment sections but then this is Michael Pachter...also Destin Legarie? Can't stand him, a glorified Xbox.

Hopefully when it finally gets shown it looks more interesting. I'm always open minded when it comes to any game PS Studios makes, especially if it's a new IP.

Sword of the sea all day long.

It's proving to be successful now but it remains to be seen just how long it's popularity will last.
Still Sony need to have more faith in their new IPs.

It's sad now that if Bubsy 3D came out now it would probably kill the studio whereas back in the 90s studios were given chances to make something better. Look at Bend studio, they made this and then they followed it up with Syphon Filter.

@Kidfunkadelic83 You and me both mate.

The thing I hate about day one releases is it just makes gaming more disposable. I bet since GP the hours played per game have plummeted because people will just drop a game after an hour and move onto something else because they technically didn't pay for it.

@11001100110zero It depends on platform. On Xbox, it's more of a struggle to be successful on their if they aren't on GP because the audience has been conditioned to just play whatever is on the service instead of buying the game outright.

Licenced tie-in game confirmed 😉

@ShogunRok They probably just want to focus on re-establishing their core characters first before thinking about guest characters. Besides if they were planning it, why spoil it?

@Oz_Who_Dat_Dare As someone who loves Aloy as a character (no surprise considering my avatar) I agree that her arc was better in Zero Dawn. We saw her grow from a baby to a woman but also there was this connection with her because we were discovering the world together at the same time.
In Forbidden West she's portrayed as heavily burdened because of what happened in Zero Dawn and her role in it. And she's surrounded by people who don't know the truth of the world. Hence why she has that aloofness that you mention, to be fair a couple of characters call her out on it and it ultimately becomes a story about accepting help from others. But the writing does depict Aloy as unlikeable at times and I often wonder if we as gamers struggle with playing as characters who are deeply flawed or unlikeable, the reaction to TLOU's ending as well the whole second gave me food for thought.
Sorry for the long post.

KP were able to turn around a new open world IP inside 5 years so I don't think we'll be waiting forever. It's obviously a PS6 game though.

@Porco With the amount of PC gamers that buy Sony's games, they might as well have stayed exclusive.

You telling me that people read the headline without looking into the context? Colour me shocked.

@EfYI Were you sacked from them or something because I can't think of any good reason you should advocate for people losing their jobs.

Hopefully they fix the huge save file bugs that prevented the first game from booting up to the point that you have to reset progress just to play it again.

I hope Battlefield does well both critically and commercially because that community has been starved of a really good game for quite some time, plus with CoD continuing to take on a more Fortnite approach, it could become one for those that want a strict military shooter.

It's for the best because Bungie's management has been terrible for far too long. I still maintain that I think Bungie will be a great acquisition but it's needs streamlining and refocused whether it starts with Marathon though remains to be seen.

@Magatsuhi ArcSys games do tend to have a long tail in the competitive scene and with Sony owning Evo they will make it a staple for years to come, even if it isn't THE top game like Street fighter.

I would be open to another Death Stranding in future, I think it's a good IP for Kojima to hand over to younger talent like he wanted to do with MGS.

I'm not sure if Digital Eclipse have done 3D PS2 emulation so Deadly Alliance, Deception and Armageddon are unlikely.
I actually prefer if it is Sub Zero and Special Forces that are added. Yes there bad games but for completion sake it would be good to have them there.

Now imagine if they add Morpheus later on.

@Questionable_Duck Because it's obvious to anyone with common sense that it's for their live service games along with a few select titles like Lego Horizon.

It's just pathetically desperate at this point. MS have conditioned people to expect ports to other platforms so that's PlayStation and Nintendo fans do port beg. But the little army of xbots led by the likes of Colt Eastwood think they can do the same even though there on a sinking ship. They are literally the music band that are still playing their instruments while the Titanic falls.

Lol it's DLC for GoG!

@J2theEzzo I've loved it, easily one of my favourite fighters.

@J2theEzzo Sagat is looking great, his kicks looks so impactful

@J2theEzzo I'm a Blanka guy I know what's it like having your main been treated as a joke lol.
I found him pretty fun in SF6 though take my opinion with a grain of salt.

I just rewatched the part where the devs were on stage before showing the trailer and Sony's guy said "For the next ten years we plan to keep making this the most amazing game ever."
Wait TEN YEARS!

She looks amazing but I wish she got a stage.

@LazyDaisy I'm someone who loves fighting games but is very casual and I ended up putting more time into Street fighter 6 then any previous SF game because the modern controls made it easy for me to do some cool moves without practicing for hours.

@PuppetMaster Which is great cos it helps casual players without putting off the hardcore.

That's crazy that they ripped the characters from Alpha Max to add them to Upper Capcom are absolutely killing it with their fighting games.

I saw Max's matches yesterday and I was a bit concerned that the game relies on auto combos and super dashes but he showed B-roll from the devs later on and it looked way more interesting.
It seems like it's taking a lot from Granblue Fantasy Versus and BlazBlue Cross Tag rather then Guilty Gear (minus wall bounces) and Dragon Ball Fighterz.

@J2theEzzo You didn't like him in SF6?

@ILikeStake I Koncur

Been made by the ex Killer Instinct devs should mean that the game's solid but budget presentation won't do it too many favours next to Tokon.

@DrClayman It's to encourage aggressive play otherwise your going to be limited to what you can do.

Kratos...give me my Marvel v PlayStation dream.

@Oram77 I was using it as an example since there's not too many titles to name right now.

@get2sammyb It's likely to be games like Helldivers, Lego Horizon, Marathon, Fairgames etc. Probably everything except their big tent pole titles.

@Overmind I'd be surprised if we get different costumes because ArcSys rarely do it, who knows though.

@Americansamurai1 Especially if Sony want it to be one of the main games at Evo next year.

I suspect the livestream will be going over this footage and giving more details.

Thanks for putting this up.

@Foxx_64740 And yet they won't update the subscriber numbers which is likely because they have stagnanted.

@Propaperpusher It's so you can play online crossplay.

Evo the last few years from a viewer's pov has been fantastic. And last year watching Maximilian Dood's livestream from the venue made it an easier watch cos now there I felt less need to keep hopping between the channels.

As for a Tokon release date, I doubt we will get it from Evo. More likely a State of Play or at the latest, the game awards.
