We haven't heard much about Arkane Studio's Deathloop since its announcement at E3 2019, but a new trailer during Sony's PlayStation 5 reveal event confirms the first-person shooter is headed to next-gen consoles. The new trailer gives a sense of the story, in which you play as an assassin locked in a timeloop so they can be hunted down and murdered over and over again. The game is due in Holiday 2020 and will be a PS5 exclusive on consoles at launch, according to the PlayStation Blog.Deathloop is about "rival assassins locked in a timeloop," and the trailer gives a better sense of Deathloop's gameplay than we've had in the past. The game looks a lot like another Arkane franchise, Dishonored--as Colt, you're trying to stay alive on the island of Black Reef while everyone is out to kill you. To kill them first, you'll wield a number of weapons, like various firearms and blades, while also utilizing special powers that can lift enemies into the air or toss them. There's also a Blink-like teleport that looks very similar to that ability in the Dishonored games.Every time you're killed, you restart the timeloop, and it sounds like your goal is to take down eight assassination targets before midnight, without being killed, in order to break free. Stealth also looks like a big component of gameplay, allowing you to kill enemies silently with suppressed weapons or with up-close lethal takedowns.Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com

Debuting at Sony's PlayStation 5 livestream, Bugsnax is the next game from Octodad developers Young Horses.

In the trailer, it was revealed that the island is filled with bug-food hybrid creatures that can grow eyes and began walking upright, talking and interacting with one another. A talking walrus explains that you'll be helping each of the talking creatures. Bugsnax is set to release this year on PS5 and PC via the Epic Games Store this holiday season.In a press release, the developers describe it as a "whimsical, narrative-driven adventure game." In the game, you'll explore the island filled with 100 different species of creatures, and you'll be able to capture and collect each one. The island also features different biomes, where unique creatures inhabit. You'll also be able to customize your favorite ones. Over the course of the game, you'll learn more about the origins of the island and the creatures that live there."We just love making weird stuff. It's been tough staying silent all these years, and it brings us joy and relief and dread to finally show off Bugsnax," said Young Horses creative director Kevin Zuhn in the press release for Bugsnax. "It's so much bigger and weirder than we ever could have imagined when we started. It surprises and delights us constantly and we hope it has the same effect on all of you."Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com

Sony's PlayStation 5 reveal event showed off lots of games and our first glimpse at the console design. But it also packed an extra surprise: the PS5 will launch as two consoles--one with a disc drive and a "Digital Edition" without.The console design largely matches the controller, with a sleek white and black finish with blue highlights. The two versions appear largely identical, other than a small curve in the disc version to accommodate the drive. The debut of the two console versions appeared alongside other hardware, including an HD camera, headset, and media remote. The two models will presumably have a price difference, but no PS5 price or release date was shared today--that will be coming later, Sony said after the event.The PS5 Digital Edition, next to the standard PlayStation 5Sony did not detail how the two models will be priced, or any differences in drive space. We know that the PlayStation 5 uses an SSD, and that PlayStation 5 discs will support a capacity of up to 100 GB. If games do take that much space, the drive would have to be sufficiently big to let you load a good number onto your Digital Edition PS5 at once.Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com

Wrestler John Morrison competed in WWE from 2002 to his departure from the company in 2011. After spending time working promotions like Lucha Underground, AAA, and Impact, Morrison returned to WWE in 2019, reteaming with his former tag team partner The Miz. Now, the duo is taking on Braun Strowman for the Universal Championship at Backlash.The WWE PPV is taking place on Sunday, June 14 at the Performance Center, and the interesting caveat is that it's a handicap match for the championship, meaning Miz and Morrison (Hey hey, ho ho) will be facing the champ as a team. But how does that work? Who becomes champion if they can defeat the Monster Among Men, Braun Strowman?"We've talked about it both ways," Morrison told GameSpot. "Co-champions would be nice. We could cut the belt in half and make some sort of a Universal Championship pendant. Sell that as merchandise, and probably get a really nice royalty check for that. Or the other way we were thinking it is whoever gets the fall would win. If I win--if I beat Braun--then Miz would get the first shot at me. Or if Miz pins Braun, then I would get the first shot at him."Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com

More details coming at a later date. #PlayStation5 #XboxSeriesX — Remedy Entertainment (@remedygames) June 11, 20202019's Control is a sci-fi third-person shoot that followed Jesse Faden as she became the director of the mysterious Bureau while searching for her missing brother.In GameSpot's Control review, Peter Brown gave the game an 8/10, writing "The dance between fact and fiction is at the heart of Control's setting and a fascinating narrative that unravels in Jesse's mind through a series of inner monologues and psychic projections. Even though you're clued into her thoughts, there's an underlying element that Jesse fails to explain because, to her, it's matter-of-fact. There's a constant desire to know more, yet to also maintain distance from the truth in order to preserve the mystery. It's to Control's credit that it effortlessly facilitates this exchange."Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com
