Maybe PS6 will be a remastered version of the PS5 generation. Waiting for the new IP. I'm just seeing sequels and remasters everywhere.

@R_L_Stine Looks like Focus Interactive were sold off and run under a group called Pull up.

I would definitely like to see more Sony 1st party single player games like the PS4 gen but I think having Microsofts collection of games come over is great for PS players and MS's bank balance. It takes nothing away from Sony so everyone wins in different ways.

As long as it's not a souls-like, I'm in!

No Ghost of Yotei, No Death Stranding 2, Plenty of games coming to the PS4 or in 2026. Pretty poor is an understatement. Mindseye was the only one that caught my attention.

Friendship ended with PS5. I'm now friends with Switch 2.

Oh and get your 2-step login activated if you haven't already.

I'm day one for both. I really enjoyed the first game and I'm sure a sequel in a new time with new characters and areas would be great! I just hope WB doesn't make it a live service game.

Not surprised it's PSN. This happens pretty much every year. I'll just play on my Xbox.

Overall I enjoyed the game, the open zone style and the gameplay. I actively liked it more because there was no mtx or live service elements. This Dragon Age game didn't connect with a broader audience because it wasn't dragon age, just an RPG.

Like a lot of others here the larger rpgs and open world games are usually done within a month if I'm fully invested, or over several months if I'm juggling it alongside new releases. I've put in about 20 hours to KCD 2 so far and I only just got a horse and met the blacksmith! Still working on getting Mutt and not even strong enough yet to get Tomcats master strike! I'll keep grinding up my gear and my levels/ perk points though as I'm very invested in the world

I purchased the game after been on the fence about the difficulty and the time investment but I have been very pleasantly surprised with how much I'm enjoying it. I really appreciate the level of detail and choice you just don't get in other open world games. This game is for those who look for depth and challenges. I can understand there are many casual gamers who wouldn't enjoy this.

DA Veilgaurd got nearly 50,000 more all time concurrents on steam and was considered a sales flop so this must be an ultra sales flop on PC for Square. I can see why moving console multiplat makes sense for them.

Roll on 4pm tomorrow!

I can imagine it will go to PS5, not day one but 3-12 months after. I noticed they do day 1 or within a few months on certain Bethesda (Doom/Indy) and Actibizz games (COD) and a little longer for Xbox Studio games (Avowed, MS Flight Sim 24)

MS ready to make lots of $$ again.

Microsoft about to live up to it's name and make lots of $$ with this one. A smart move for a game almost 4 years old that has no real competition on PlayStation

I pray Xbox make something good so that PlayStation improve for the PS6 generation. Having the record of the worst performing game of all time is not what I was expecting for the PS5 gen. If this PS5 gen does not improve I'm off to Switch 2.

I have Gamepass so nothing that will make me turn on my PS5 beyond Trails Through Daybreak 2 and then Ghost of Yotei and Death Stranding 2. The Sony 1P output hasn't been great this last couple of years. I got spoiled rotten in the PS4 gen but now Xbox are bringing out the 1P games I like and I don't have to wait at least a year to get them on PS5.

Starfield has been out well over a year now, I wonder if the will port it over if ever? Nintendo will be the ones that will really challenge Sony with the Switch 2. I only keep mu PS5 for the JRPG's I can't get on Switch so if now they start porting them all over to Switch 2 i'll be skipping out until PS6 and I'll play GTA 6 on my Series X.

I think this game comes out in 2026 and that might get confirmed at the next investor call.

Need to finish the first game first, I better crack on with that!

Will be playing these on Gamepass as I already spend a lot of games but will be picking up a pro for the likes of Ghost of Yotei and Death Stranding 2.

I enjoyed the game overall apart from some of the writing, but I don't think it needs any additional DLC as they previously hinted. The story was tied up nicely and the lack of MTX was a good thing in this game. I can imagine most of the team are supporting other studios until the next Mass Effect is fully up and running.

Looking forward to this one!

@Gamer83 The IP has been dormant quite a long time, but yeah I'm not saying it was a success, read my other replies for what I was on about.

@dskatter Like I mentioned previously 1.5 million of anything is a decent number. It clearly didn't hit it's financial expectations but that doesn't really matter beyond EA deciding what they want Bioware to do next. I was commenting on this "modern audience" notion which I found to be strange given we kept being told that it exists yet it is very small. I have never played a dragon age game before as I like JRPGS and i liked the world and gameplay (I didn't like the writing).

@Reform It wasn't on EA play for consoles. It might drop there in the future though like most EA titles. The estimate is 1.5 million sales.

@MrMagic Like it said 1.5 million of anything is a decent number. For EA, probably not but it was more than enough for Sony with Astro Bot. I'm not arguing that the game was a financial success because it clearly was not. I was just saying that 1.5 million does not represent this "modern audience" people keep banging on about.

Lots of media coverage on Youtube for this one tomorrow. Alongside the launch of the Dualsense Chroma Teal and the Xbox developer direct it's a busy day in gaming news tomorrow!

@Reform I mean 1.5 million is quite a sizable number by any metric. "Modern audience" numbers would be something like Dustborn or Unknown 9.

It's time for Hulst to make way, as the live service strategy has cost time, talent and a lot of money in this PS5 generation. Others like Jim Ryan rightly stepped aside.

Short answer is yes.

Long answer, I expect the Switch 2 to outsell PS5 across its lifetime for 3 reasons

Nintendo has a far stronger 1st party line up that sell in some instances 2-3 times the amount than a PS5 generation bestseller

Most console gamers aren't obsessed with graphics, just good games

The updated power will bring over more AAA's and there a big cross over on JRPG's, with the ones not on the system now to be ported over (thus making me play my Switch 2 more than my PS5).

Nintendo won't try to compete with Sony or outsell them, but it probably will if the price point is the same or lower.

@tameshiyaku It's more like a full game and larger than the other spin off. Based on the content I have seen the price is worth it if you are a big RGG fan.

I enjoyed the game and I wish Corrine the best for the future. It seems like lots of other players enjoyed the game too which is nice to see. That is what gaming is about, not the weird post covid negativity we now get online.

I think a lot of us here are the elder folks (30+) who are a bit more invested in buying games rather than the free to play and subscription market. My younger brother (Gen Z) and my kids (Gen Alpha) have zero interest in physical games or buying them when they can jump onto F2P or mobile games. They also use gamepass on mobile and tablets. That's the future of gaming regardless of if we like it or not. Subscriptions are here to stay no matter how many comments we post on a website.

I'm all for SE revoking gaming licences for those found to be abusing/harassing their staff.

I have never been into musou games (only played Persona 5 Strikers and Fire Emblem 3 Hopes) but the demo was really fun to play so I will pick this up.

The golden age of gaming was the PS4 and early Switch Generation - 2013-2020. Things have become too toxic and divided since then. The PS5 generation hasn't provided much beyond reused IP's either. I'm looking forward to KKD2 as it's just more my things that BG3, which is played and only moderately enjoyed.

I think in a straight 12 month race at a similar price point and availability Switch 2 would dust PS5 in Sales. But GTA 6 alongside those other variables mean it is hard to predict what 2026 full year sales will look like. Due to the JRPG overlap and the lack of appealing 1P Sony games in the future I might just Switch over to Switch 2, but we shall see.

Seems a bit unfair to put this on Ubisoft when this studio supported many different companies including Sony. More engagement bait.

Glad this is in March as Feb is stacked for me. I will be picking up Ambulance Life and Trails Through Daybreak 2 alongside the big hitters.

I played LiS2 and then True Colours and enjoyed both, but the price and the fact I had no attachment to Max meant I just haven't picked this one up yet. I might get it on a deeper sale (under £25).

The IP is getting milked a bit, like a lot of Sony IP this generation. It's hard to say if the film adaptation will be successful like the main game or rather decidedly not so like the Lego game. Sony films are very hit or miss.

I do get the whole "if you don't like it, don't watch it", but don't be surprised if a lot of people don't.

Really spreading out those colour variants to get $.

Considering how much this franchise makes along with the Likes of GTA, that dev cost is just loose change.

@Boucho11 I looked at all the stores in England and none for Argos now..

Might get it for my Xbox, although I really don't care about the analog stick placement, as I am capable of switching between Xbox, PlayStation and Nintendo Controllers.

@CVCubbington My GTA 6 complaints could be:

Too woke
I'm too broke
No big smoke

My top 5:

GTA 6 (If it makes 2025)
KKD2
AC Shadows
Clair Obscur Expedition 33
Avowed

Outside contenders:
Mafia The Old Country
Crimson Desert (If it makes 2025)
Like a Dragon Pirates of Yakuza
The Outer Words 2

For a game of it's size, I am glad they are giving reviewers the proper time to play and enjoy every aspect of the game.
