  • Souls Director Miyazaki Says Making Bloodborne 2 Isn’t His Call

    Sony, we’re waiting.

    Ah, the ever elusive Bloodborne 2. Will it ever get made? Does it already exist in some early form? We don’t know, but we do know that the internet loves spreading rumours about it. Fortunately, this story isn’t based on a rumour — it comes from the words of FromSoftware president and Father of Souls Hidetaka Miyazaki, who told GameSpot BR in an interview that creating a sequel to Bloodborne simply isn’t his call.

  • World of Warships: Legends Gears up for Halloween

    World of Warships: Legends celebrates Halloween early with a new Campaign! Players can get started on the way to earning a free Halloween-themed premium ship and tons of rewards throughout October!

    The Wicked Waves Campaign features the Jackal, a steampunk war machine with a unique playstyle. As a Tier III German Battleship, Jackal carries twelve 11-inch guns in a hexagonal layout used in early battleship designs. Jackal will also come with additional modification slots to help customize her playstyle. All this combined with solid armor, the Jackal is surprisingly flexible for a Tier III battleship, able to engage enemies all around her! On the way to earning her, players will receive plenty of other rewards to help them in-game—but the rewards don’t stop there!

    If the player has Admiralty backing, they will also receive a ton of extra rewards and a unique event commander! Featured as a German Battleship Commander, Henry J. Hide is the perfect partner to Jackal! Hide brings new and unique skills to further optimize the Jackal, making them the perfect dynamic duo: Jackal & Hide.

    There are 45 levels in the Wicked Waves campaign and two weeks to complete it! Jackal, Hide, and the other rewards are permanent, so go have fun and get yourself these unique items!

    However, there’s more to Halloween than events and steampunk ships….

    During Halloween the veils between the worlds are thin and can be easily parted to steal glimpses of the other side, or even cross over… It is a night of horror, mystic tales, and chilling stories. So why not start such a mystic journey right in World of Warships: Legends?

    Starting October 28, World of Warships: Legends will allow players to take part in a special event. After selecting one of three event warships and their commander partners, players can take part in a cooperative operation where they must defend the Transylvania, a ship set to save Halloween! Things will quickly go downhill, as you will be fighting against a swarm of monstrous zombie ships! Surely you and your teammates will be up to the challenge, but will you be able to complete the extra objectives and defeat the final boss too? There are special rewards for participating in the mission, but these rewards become even greater when players complete the extra objectives and the entire mission! Earn Halloween containers, premium account time, and the coveted universal commendations!

    In addition to Jackal & Hide, there will be more Halloween themed commanders and ships available in the in-game store. These ships and commanders will only be available during the Halloween season, so be sure to add them to your fleet! There will be more bonuses in event containers too! Holding anything from various boosters to universal commendations for your commanders, these containers also give you a chance to receive permanent Halloween camouflage for the Wakatake or the St. Louis!

    The Halloween celebrations come alongside the recent release of the French Navy, a powerful and unique tree of Cruisers and Battleships. The French cruisers are likened to evasive sharpshooters—able to deal damage from a distance, and keep that distance thanks to their speed. They are normally fitted with engine boost to help get them out (or into) sticky situations. French battleships had some of the most unique designs of the era, and have intense firepower and speed in-game, allowing them to flank enemies and rain shells from their epic quadruple-gun turrets. At higher tiers, the French battleships also get engine boost, making them some of the most flexible battleships in the game.

    World of Warships: Legends is building steam and making headway, with more to come! Come join the fun and experience epic naval action today!

  • The Challenging Hand-Drawn Adventure of Indivisible is Available Today on Xbox One

    Indivisible is the latest game from Lab Zero Games, best known as the studio that created Skullgirls. Their latest production is an RPG/platformer featuring Lab Zero’s signature hand-drawn and hand-animated art style that gives the game a unique look and feel. With more than thirty voice actors, hand-animated sequences, challenging platforming areas and a unique style of combat, Indivisible is an experience you won’t want to miss.

    Indivisible features Ajna, a rebellious young girl who finds her world turned upside down after her home is attacked and a mysterious power within her is awakened. As she journeys across the world of Loka to find answers and revenge, she meets a wide cast of characters who join her quest.

    These “Incarnations” are drawn into Ajna’s Inner Realm (sometimes reluctantly) and appear when needed. Each new member brings their own unique skills and abilities to the fight, so choosing who joins the fray alongside Ajna is critical as you journey into deeper and more dangerous parts of the world.

    Ajna learns new skills as she discovers more about herself and meets more Incarnations. Mastering new skills help her navigate the world, reach new heights (literally) and discover additional areas to explore.

  • ‘Dozens’ of PlayStation Employees Laid Off in Europe as Sony Continues Company Restructure

    More changes as PS5 looms.

    Ahead of the PlayStation 5’s full reveal and release in 2020, Sony is clearly busy behind the scenes. The company has been restructuring for a while now, with the likes of former PlayStation Europe boss Jim Ryan taking on the role of Sony Interactive Entertainment CEO back in February of this year, and much more recently, the departure of Sony Worldwide Studios Chariman Shawn Layden was announced. Plans are in motion, as they say.

  • Random: Days Gone’s Trophies Are Scripted to Capture Important Story Moments

    Morior Invictus.

    The PlayStation 4 captures a screenshot that corresponds with every single Trophy you earn, and the vast majority of the time, those images are completely throwaway. A random image of a menu, a weapon aimed down sights, a non-descript cutscene – you know the drill. However, it turns out PS4 exclusive Days Gone actually scripted those Trophies to capture an image that relates back to the description of said achievement.

    Responding to a post on Twitter, lead open world designer Eric Jensen said: It was intentional! I scripted all of the storyline Trophies in Days Gone to pre-capture a cool moment within a cinematic that tied to the intent of the Trophy. Thanks for noticing!”

  • The Simpsons: Hit & Run Dev Wants to Remake the PS2 Classic

    Woohoo!

    If you’re talking to a bunch of people in their mid-twenties who only have a very vague, passing interest in video games, it’s never too long before The Simpsons: Hit & Run is brought up. The PS2 classic has stood the test of time thanks to becoming a childhood memory for many, and while a full remake is probably never going to happen, the game’s original producer certainly seems on board with the idea.

    Speaking to LADbible, Vlad Ceraldi said: “I could see it on multiple different types of platforms as a remake or remaster. It would have to take the parties who are in charge of the property to want that to happen and someone out there to decide that they were going to go out and do it. But absolutely, it would be fun to explore those characters and that universe again, that work again.”

  • Review: Concrete Genie – PS4’s Artsiest Exclusive Seems a Little Unsure of Itself

    Art attack.

    Of all Sony’s in-house developers, Pixelopus perhaps has the most to prove. Its debut game, Entwined, didn’t set the world alight, and so its follow-up needed to up the ante. It’s fair to say the young team has done just that with Concrete Genie, a far more ambitious title that aligns itself more with the regular output of Worldwide Studios. That’s not to say this is your typical PlayStation 4 exclusive — far from it.

    Having clearly been inspired by the cinematic storytelling of Sony’s major players, the game begins by introducing you to Ash, a young boy with an artistic flair. As he’s minding his own business, some bullies arrive, steal his sketchbook, and tear out all the pages before sending him up to the supposedly haunted lighthouse. Equally as important as Ash is the town of Denska, abandoned and overrun by delinquents after an accident causes a mysterious dark rot to take hold. After Ash receives a magical paintbrush, a decent tutorial gets you familiarised with the basics, and then you’re tasked with reviving the town by painting living murals on its decrepit walls.
