    First PS5 Pro footage of BeamNG.drive shown, v0.40 update lands 19th October with the port

    YouTuber MuYe shared the first PS5 Pro footage of BeamNG.drive, showing its presentation, console interface, and limitations. Spawning too many cars can tank the frame rate as on PC, but normal play runs well even with split-screen; there are no mods in this version, though the developer says it is looking for ways to support them. All PC content will be available, including the v0.40 update launching on 19th October alongside the PS5 port, with pricing unannounced but expected to be similar to the PC version's current $24.99/£18.99.

    Yystv interviews P4R's producer and director on the preparations for returning to Inaba

    Yystv interviewed Persona 4 Revival producer Kazuhisa Wada and director Daisuke Yajima at Tokyo Game Show, discussing the backlash to the first trailer's sparse content and the team's wish to reveal the game at a higher state of completion. Wada said experience from Persona 3 Reload's first use of Unreal Engine carried over, while P4R moves to Unreal Engine 5 with Lumen and reflections to improve Inaba's weather and rain scenes; Yajima said the All-Out Attack now has every character moving and uses TV and monitor elements tied to the dungeon setting.

    The Father of PlayStation Says Games Have Stagnated, Calls for Curiosity in Developers

    Ken Kutaragi, known as the father of PlayStation, said at a CEREC opening panel that games have stagnated in terms of content, arguing the way games are made hasn't fundamentally changed since the original PlayStation. He noted the software market is valued at $186 billion, surpassing film and music, but said the industry isn't mature and still faces a turning point toward a "next stage." He urged students and industry professionals to keep their curiosity and adopt the mindset behind the PS1, which was created to "change the world."

    Sony Japan's PS5 Pro anti-scalper lottery requires a Japanese account with 60 hours of play

    Sony Japan has rolled out an anti-scalper lottery for PS5 Pro orders that requires a Sony account registered in Japan with at least 60 hours of gaming on PS4, PS5, or both. Valve also set reservation requirements for the Steam Frame launch, including a Steam account in good standing and a purchase made before April 27th 2026. The author argues these brand loyalty tests, while aimed at scalpers, make buying hardware at full price a qualification process.

    Ghost of Yotei: Complete Edition Review: Atsu Shines in Story DLC, But Most Wanted Mode Steals the Show

    Push Square reviewed Ghost of Yotei: Complete Edition, which offers an upgrade path for existing owners and adds the Echoes of Sekigahara story chapter plus the new Most Wanted mode. Echoes of Sekigahara follows Atsu hunting down Nagato the Handsome in the newly added Ashoro Foothills region, is set before the main game's ending, and takes roughly 8 to 10 hours to complete. Most Wanted is a single player roguelike mode with four playable characters, including Ghost of Tsushima's Jin Sakai.

    Ghost of Yotei Complete Edition review: an expansion worth returning for

    VGC's review says Ghost of Yotei Complete Edition consists of Most Wanted, a roguelike mode where players face waves of enemies before a member of the Yotei Six, and Echoes of Sekigahara, a story expansion. Echoes of Sekigahara's main campaign runs about 5 hours and adds massive weapons plus an ability that fires three auto-targeting arrows at once, while Most Wanted brings Ghost of Tsushima protagonist Jin Sakai back as a playable character. The reviewer calls Echoes of Sekigahara's story one of the richest in the franchise and says the base game's main story feels weaker without it.

    Ghost of Yotei DLC Review: Echoes of Sekigahara and Most Wanted

    Sucker Punch's Ghost of Yotei DLC is bundled in the Complete Edition, with a $15 upgrade on the PlayStation store for base game owners. Echoes of Sekigahara requires roughly 10 hours of story progress and a bounty called Nagato, the Handsome to start, adding about seven to eight hours in the new Ashoro Foothills region, while Most Wanted is a run-based bounty mode playable from the main menu with Atsu, Oyuki, Nagato, or Ghost of Tsushima's Jin Sakai. The review says both additions refine what the game already does well, though Most Wanted's denser fights expose occasional targeting issues.

    Marvel's Wolverine Ending Explained: How Insomniac Rewrites Logan's Origin Story

    IGN breaks down the ending of Marvel's Wolverine, noting that the game gives Logan his adamantium skeleton via Apocalypse and turns him and Jean Grey into immortal lovers spanning centuries. Essex, better known as Mister Sinister, uses the Helix Device to awaken dormant mutants and unleash Sentinels before Wolverine kills him, though a final blast of Helix energy reactivates the Shinigami within Logan. A post-credits scene shows Apocalypse recruiting Sabretooth as his new Horseman of War, setting up a sequel.

He added that Xbox, with Series X|S falling behind and the company going through changes, may be more incentivised to release its next console.

    Let's Talk About the New Resident Evil Movie

    In Zach Cregger's new Resident Evil film, Austin Abrams plays Bryan, a courier delivering a package containing the final ingredient for a cure to Raccoon City General Hospital, who is bitten by an infected girl and slowly mutates. By the end, Bryan fully transforms, devours the scientists, and dies as his mutation robs him of consciousness. The author praises this willingness to kill off the main protagonist, calling it a rare "bad ending" for a high-budget production and an antidote to the games' refusal to kill off their main characters.

    Video: Gameplay of Ghost of Yotei's new roguelike mode, featuring the return of Jin Sakai

    VGC went hands-on with the opening hours of Most Wanted, the new roguelike mode in Ghost of Yotei: Complete Edition, in which players fight waves of enemies from the base game before facing one of the Yotei Six. The run-based mode has players earn currency and upgrades each run, spend it in a menu to upgrade abilities and change each character's starting weapon, and unlock extra playable characters including Ghost of Tsushima protagonist Jin Sakai based on how much currency has been spent on other characters. Most Wanted and the Echoes of Sekigahara expansion release together on October 1 as $14.99 DLC, while a $69.99 Complete Edition lets new players start the base game now.

    How Ace Combat 8: Wings of Theve uses first-person to tell a more personal story

    Developer Project Aces has changed its storytelling approach for Ace Combat 8: Wings of Theve, presenting most cutscenes in first person so players experience the war between the Federation of Central Usea and the invading Sotoans as a silent protagonist. Players inherit the call sign of ace pilot Jan "Rex" Cope and fight alongside Joker Flight, using the DualSense controller's D-Pad, right stick and buttons for small interactions and to issue squad orders. The game launches October 2 on PlayStation 5.

    Marvel's Wolverine Review: Insomniac's Shift in Style and the First-Party Expectation Gap

    Marvel's Wolverine holds a 76 Metacritic average from 132 outlets and a 6.8 user average from over 4,000 players, which the author attributes to sharply uneven strengths and weaknesses. Developed by Insomniac as a PS first-party exclusive, it drops open-world design for linear storytelling with a dark adult tone and combat that favors emotion over depth, running 12 to 15 hours with about 20 hours for full completion. The author argues the first-party exclusive status raised media and player expectations, and that a standard multiplatform AAA release might have scored higher.

    Goodwill Hunting: Consoles' Brand Value and Loyalty Is Being Tested | Opinion

    Xbox Game Studios has picked up publishing rights to Hideo Kojima's Physint after Sony dropped the project, which was originally announced at a Sony State of Play event in early 2024. Sony's exit likely reflects Death Stranding 2: On The Beach's roughly 2 million copies sold and Physint's long development timeline, while Xbox is betting on Kojima's return to stealth-action. The move chips away at the goodwill Sony and Microsoft will need as they prepare to sell what will likely be their most expensive consoles ever.

The Guardian, Eurogamer and VGC each gave it 3/5, while IGN gave 6/10, with criticism focused on repetitive combat, limited enemy variety and linear level design. Critics called the characters and performances the game's strongest asset, though much of Logan's character development happens off-screen.
