Posted June 20th, 2013 at 05:47 EDT by Mike Harradence0 Comments

Ubisoft has announced that Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag will be a launch title for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.

The news comes following a chinwag with game director Ashraf Ismail at ElderGeek, who confirmed that the historical action-adventure sequel “will release when the [next-gen] consoles are available.

“We are a launch title for those platforms,” he said. “Honestly, we want to push the game as fast out the door because we want people to pick up and play with it. We’re very proud of this game.”

Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag takes place in the early 1700s and sees Edward Kenway – grandfather of ACIII’s Connor – plundering his way through the Caribbean alongside the legendary Blackbeard and his band of pirates.

Posted June 6th, 2013 at 07:40 EDT by Mike Harradence1 Comments

Square Enix has unleashed the official E3 trailer for Lightning Returns: Final Fantasy XIII for your consumption.

In addition, the publishing giant also confirmed that the RPG sequel will be released in European territories in February 2014 – Valentine’s Day, to be precise. We presume this will be the case for the U.S., too.

As the third and final entry in the FFXIII narrative, Lightning Returns sees the eponymous heroine make a return to the scene after previously heading up the original FFXIII. Lightning will boast over 20 costumes in the game, and will be guided by Hope via cellphone.

Lightning Returns will be released for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360.

Dead or Alive 5 Ultimate: Core Fighters confirmed for U.S., Europe

You are here: Home » News » Dead or Alive 5 Ultimate: Core F...

Posted June 4th, 2013 at 05:24 EDT by Mike Harradence0 Comments

Dead or Alive 5 Ultimate: Core Fighters will be released in North America and Europe as a free download.

Previously confirmed for release in Japan, the digitally-downloadable beat-‘em-up features four playable characters plus allows access to all stages and costumes. Fighting favourites Kasumi, Ayane, Hayate and Ryu Hayabusa make up the roster, though extra characters will set you back $3.99. Additional outfits will also need to be purchased.

Likewise, if you fancy a crack at the Story Mode you’ll have to fork out $14.99 to buy it, though all other modes are fully playable.

Core Fighters will be released alongside Dead or Alive 5 Ultimate - which includes the extra content featured in DoA5 Plus for PS Vita as well as new stages and fighters - this September.

Battlefield 4 will launch on October 29, 2013 on PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 with a PlayStation 4 and Xbox One version also confirmed.

Announced via its Facebook page, EA has also confirmed that the first expansion pack will be called China Rising and will include four additional maps, extra vehicles and new weapons. The expansion pack is free if you pre-order the game.

Here’s the blurb:

“In single-player, gamers will experience huge environments, a playground of destruction, access to an arsenal of vehicles and the ability to direct squad mates. Taking a page from the social aspect of multiplayer gaming, the single-player mode will now track players’ progress, adding an element of persistence and friendly competition to the campaign.”

Battlefield 4 should be available in its playable form at E3 in June. PSU will be there in force so be sure to check back for all the coverage you’ll ever need on everything PlayStation-related.

Call of Duty: Ghosts developers confirmed

You are here: Home » News » Call of Duty: Ghosts » Call of Duty: Ghosts developers ...

Posted May 22nd, 2013 at 07:15 EDT by Mike Harradence1 Comments

Infinity Ward has revealed that development of this year’s entry in the Call of Duty franchise was aided by Activision’s Raven Software and Neversoft.

Call of Duty: Ghosts was shown off properly for the first time at Microsoft’s Xbox One event yesterday. Following the show, Infinity Ward wrote the following on Twitter:

“Now that our reveal is live, we wanted to give special thanks to @RavenSoftware & @Neversoft for their support in developing #CODGhosts.”

CoD: Ghosts is set a few years in the future where the global balance of power has been irrevocably changed following a ‘devastating attack.’ As a result, the United States of America is no longer recognised as a superpower.

The game will feature a brand new engine and will be released for PlayStation 4, PlayStation 3, PC, Xbox 360, Xbox One and Wii U.

Call of Duty: Ghosts is scheduled to ship worldwide on November 5.

PS4 Batman game confirmed? Kevin Conroy will voice Batman in 'new Arkham game,' 'not Arkham Origins'

You are here: Home » News » Batman: Arkham Origins » PS4 Batman game confirmed? Kevin...

Posted May 20th, 2013 at 17:14 EDT by Kyle Prahl1 Comments

Yesterday, we reported that storied voice actor Kevin Conroy had put to rest rumors of his non-involvement in Batman: Arkham Origins by announcing to fans at Dallas Comic-Con that he would, in fact, be voicing the Caped Crusader in the "next Arkham game." Well, actually, we noted that his words were ambiguous and could apply to a next-gen Arkham sequel, rather than Warner Bros. Montreal's current-gen prequel.

Looks like we called it! Conroy has confirmed over Twitter that he will be voicing Batman in an Arkham game that is not Arkham Origins. This comes alongside confirmation from numerous press outlets that Roger Craig Smith will be voicing the younger Dark Knight in Arkham Origins. Troy Baker will fill in for Mark Hamill as a younger Joker.

Are you glad to hear that another (probably Rocksteady-developed) Arkham game is in the works? Do you think it's headed for PlayStation 4? Sound off in the comments.

Kyle Prahl finally finished Arkham City a couple nights ago, and he's never been so excited for another Batman game. You can follow him on Twitter.

Batman: Arkham Origins gets full trailer, The Joker confirmed

Posted May 20th, 2013 at 12:05 EDT by Mike Harradence0 Comments

Warner Montreal has lifted the curtains on the full debut trailer for superhero prequel Batman: Arkham Origins.

Check it out below.

Despite confusion surrounding Batman voice actor Kevin Conroy’s part in the proceedings, Ubisoft did reveal that Roger Craig Smith – of Assassin’s Creed II and Resident Evil 5 fame – will be voicing the Caped Crusader. Conroy, however, will still be taking part in the project, though his role remains unknown.

Also appearing in the game will be Troy Baker (BioShock: Infinite, The Last of Us), who voices The Joker. 

If that wasn’t enough to float your boat, Warner continued its Batman blowout with a look at the game’s boxart, which we’ve included below.

Arkham Origins is due out on October 25 for PlayStation 3, PC, Xbox 360 and Wii U.
