Probably go the same way as EAs Rocket Arena, will be on plus in couple of months

The first one of these was an indie fest, can’t remember the second one but I wouldn’t expect any ‘big’ news to come from this

2022 could be a busy year for games, I’m not too worried though, still have FFVIIRI, Returnal, R&C, Horizon 2, Scarlet Nexus, REVIII, Deathloop etc,.. to look forward to this year, and my PS5 backlog is growing already

@NEStalgia I’m glad they did cancel the DLC, I read the novel and they changed the ending dramatically and made all the end chapters mute, changed the story for the worst, the whole heroes fighting against fate trope that FF seems to roll with lately

I so thought the main character was going to be Agni from the tech demo a few years ago so surprised that it wasn’t. Looks good, also seems like they may have used some of XVs assets

I usually try find fellow trophy hunters to boost with, especially Ubisoft games which always have that annoying couple of coop trophies

@nessisonett yep, to learn the true ending of FFXV you need to read a novel, the game was a mess with all the patches and dlc

For me Square Enix is shooting themselves in the foot with all their demos, while it’s great at least one major publisher is still doing demos and it’s something I wish others would adopt, it’s definitely hurting sales from me. After playing Avengers beta, outriders demo and Balan Wonderworld demo it has definitely put me off buying any of them, which I guess is a good thing, thanks Square

Shame they didn’t turn this more into a Japanese state of play, could of included titles like Scarlet Nexus, GT7 and maybe another look at FFXVI

The size of Yakuza 7 is great, not too big and doesn't take long to run somewhere, but i also like the size of GTAV, its a good size playground for the toys you get.
Its the likes of Ubisofts open world's that can be such a chore, they seem to think big is better but there worlds are quite empty and repetitive, like in AC Odyssey, you saw one island in that game you've seen them all.

I picked up yakuza 7 on PS5, was humming and hurring between this and Assassins Creed Valhalla. Glad I did, just finished chapter 2, it’s scratching a lot of itches, namely felt like a jrpg, and as a sega boy at heart it’s great for that nostalgia feeling. So far 9/10

Thought they would of saved this for SOP, obviously won’t be shown there

@Playstation I’m thinking March, they are sending out Kena goody bags to journalists etc... right now, I’m thinking reveal at SoP of release date and ps plus game

@Eadgar Bugsnax was available for two months from November yet they still released Worms Rumble beside it in December

I think Maquette from Annapurna Interactive has a high chance to be the PS4/5 game, reminds me of something that Sony would put on psplus, a puzzle walking simulator, comes out same day on March 2nd.

The other one that is could be is Kena: Bridge of Spirits, it’s pencilled in for a March release and I’m sure Sony took note of the great reception it got from the PS5 showcase so this could be a great surprise.

Other PS5 titles that would be cool to see are Haven or The Pathless

As much as I would love to hear some big news soon as it’s been a while since the showcase in September I think Sony (aside from maybe Ubisoft) has been the most active publisher. We’ve just had PlayStation Studios release Destruction Allstars and the next few months we will have from them Returnal, MLB 21 and Rift Apart, and on top of that Sony published Nioh Remastered, their output is better than most others. I think 2021 will definitely see the industry impacted by COVID more than last year and it will be a light year for AAA

Rainbow Six: Social Distancing

I have a strong suspicion that we will be getting The Pedestrian for a ps5/4 game. All January PS5 releases that have dates are to late in the month, this game is the only release slated with no specific January date. Also The Pedestrian was featured on the Playstation blog as well as a state of play

Personally i would likeThe Pathless or Haven as PS5 titles
