With the PlayStation VR entering its second year, cool training Sony will likely look to further expand its own involvement in the gadget’s chances of success. While likely without any further context, this assumption is further validated by the opening panel on Saturday, which features "two legends" discussing their new PSVR title. Expect to see our first look at this intriguing partnership at the PlayStation Presents the night prior.
This week's eSports Report has the details on the biggest tournament of the past weekend, the League of Legends Midseason Invitational, and the potentially game-changing details on the sale of pro league ESL. But first, meet the gold-card seeking gamer who bought 2,700 Hearthstone card packs all in one night's w
At Torikai-Gata, Japanese commander Takesaki Suenaga attacked an army of thousands of Yuan soldiers and managed to hold them long enough, allowing the arrival of reinforcements under Michiyasu Shiraishi, who ultimately pushed the Mongols back and inflicted heavy casualt
"I don’t think anything that has that Japanese flavor has broad appeal. They’re great games and get high ratings, and the hardcore audiences love them. But, for the average audience, they’re hard games. They’re too hard for most people. I mean, I played Persona 5 , one of the highest rated games ever, and I like it, but I can’t believe it went on to sell as many copies as it did. It’s just not the kind of game that seems like it has mass appeal, even though it’s one of the best games ever made, and probably wins Game of the Year. But… going back to Tsushima , no, I don’t think it has broad appeal eith
Another interesting detail is that the landing in Komodahama happened on October 5th, 1274, and the Battle of Bun'Ei ended on October 21st. I couldn't find clear data on when Japanese relief forces reached the island of Tsushima, but it's probably not much later. This means that the story of the game is likely to be rather short in terms of timespan, as the first Mongol Invasion had a long buildup, but was ultimately a brief engagement. It'll be definitely interesting to see if the story will somehow extend to the second invasion. Since forces on the island held back the Mongol tide a few years later in 1281, it's quite possible that Sucker Punch will decide to include it at the end of the game, or it could even be a good hook for a seq
David Cage’s latest tale seems to be nearing completion, as President of SIEA Shawn Layden hinted at in an interview back after E3. Having also received multiple gameplay demos, Detroit: Become Human is one of three titles likely to receive a release date during Friday night’s press conference, along with perhaps one more trailer to tease the three protagonists’ journeys in this near-future game.
Even large publishers like Bandai Namco and Koei Tecmo normally prefer to release more games on a shorter development cycle, spending less in both development and marketing for each. It's pretty normal that those games will go on to sell fewer copies, but this doesn't make them irrelevant (or less profitable) when combi
LEGO's domination of the multiplex is pretty much confirmed by this point. Following The LEGO Batman Movie , they're bringing one of their own properties to the screen with Ninjago . Despite limited interest outside of the LEGO fanbase, everything so far looks very promis
Sony Santa Monica’s latest exploration of ancient mythology through violence received a surprisingly vague release window of Early 2018 at E3, which was sustained through a succinct demo at Paris Games Week. It would be rather surprising for God of War to not garner a release date considering how impending "Early 2018" is, but we may see little else from the father-son adventure considering how tight-lipped the studio has been thus far.

As we approach the year’s end, this time has recently started to bring about two traditions for gaming enthusiasts: The Game Awards and PlayStation Experience. Both bring about their fair share of hype and announcements, but the latter has often done a solid job at preparing PS4 owners for the year ahead, particularly in regards to Sony’s plans for their first-party titles. Heading into 2018, Sony has a potential-filled lineup of varied titles, primarily from studios that have reared their heads after years in silence. While the publisher has hinted at some of their reveals inbound next week over in Anaheim, there’s still plenty more to speculate upon for eight of the PS4’s biggest releases.
A strong Japanese counterattack landed on Iki island at the end of the month, defeating the Mongol garrison, and forced the invaders to withdraw to Hirado island. At this point, the Yuan adopted a much tighter formation for their ships, actually chaining them together in order to thwart enemy boarding acti
