Sony has partially revealed the list of games you can expect to see at E3 this year, including PS4 titles DriveClub and Killzone: Shadow Fall, along with little heard-of title The Last Guardian, which has been MIA since it was announced. Obviously, the list isn’t complete as Sony will likely have a few new games hidden up its sleeves.
Not making it to E3 this year? Fear not: London will be getting its own indie gaming alternative, which will coincide with the major LA-based gaming convention. Taking place at the Loading Bar in Soho from June 10th – 13th, EToo will feature over 30 game developers showing off their latest games. PlayStation will be in attendance, with Naughty Dog’s The Last of Us playable, as well as innovative platform adventure Rain and some “surprise extras”.
Sony have revealed their plans to live-steam their E3 Press Conference, where the PS4 will finally be revealed. In just over 10 days time, you’ll be able to watch Sony unveil the PS4 along with “the next chapter in the PlayStation story” from their E3 Live Stream website. In the UK and Europe, the Press Conference will take place at 2 AM on Tuesday, 11th June 2013.
If you bough God of War: Ascension back in March, your copy of the game included early access to The Last of Us demo. Today, that demo becomes active, letting you play two levels from the game, each with very different styles of play. The full game releases next month, so this is your chance to see what the game is like before anyone else.
Sony has released a new developer diary for upcoming PS4 FPS Killzone: Shadow Fall, as part of PlayStation’s “Conversations with creators” series. In the new video, the developers talk about what it means to them to be a launch title on the new platform. The game will be releasing towards the end of the year, exclusively available for the PS4.
A new trailer for Rain has been released, titled “Two Silhouettes”, showing how the character’s paths eventually collide. Each of the locations they’ll visit throughout the game varies dramatically from the next, and they’ll need to work together in unique ways to escape their pursuers.
New PS3, PS Vita and PS3 games are available on the PlayStation Store in Europe this week, along with new PlayStation Plus content. Three new games have been added to the Instant Game Collection this week, while a number of new PS3 and PS Vita titles are available for purchase, including Insomiac’s Fuse and new Wonderbook title Diggs Nightcrawler.
The Last of Us Trophy List has been released by IGN, ahead of the game’s official release next month. The trophies in this game, however, aren’t anything like those you will find in Naughty Dog’s Uncharted series. There are fewer Bronze trophies to unlock in this game – in fact, there are only seven bronze trophies in total.
Lots of new content is available on the North American PlayStation Store this week, with The Last of Us now available to pre-order along with the DLC season pass. New PS Vita games are available too, including a new addition to the PlayStation Plus Instant Game Collection. You can also find various new DLC content, themes, wallpapers and more.
Naughty Dog has announced that PS3 exclusive title The Last of Us will be getting three DLC packs after launch. The DLC packs will include one single-player expansion, and two multiplayer ones, with a season pass available to gamers to get all three packs at a discount. The season pass will cost gamers $19.99, but will also include Day 1 bonuses.
