News Naughty Dog Casts Troy Baker to Star in Untitled Next PS5 Game

In news that might at first sound like a parody, developer Naughty Dog has cast The Last of Us lead, Troy Baker, in its untitled next PS5 game. Baker, who famously played grizzled dad Joel Miller in PlayStation's premiere series, was a natural pick, says Naughty Dog chief Neil Druckmann: "In a heartbeat, I would always work with...

News Sony's Latest First-Party Release Is Struggling to Do Concord Numbers on PC
Despite having "LEGO" in the title
We'd love to be a fly on the wall at Sony sometimes to know what the bigwigs think of its vaunted first-party struggling to make a dent in the PC market. Like mobile, the platform is proving surprisingly tough for PlayStation Studios to crack, and it must be frustrating. Case in point: LEGO Horizon Adventures...

In another sad piece of news for the industry, developer Humanoid Origin has announced its closure.

Geralt? Never heard of him
The eagerly anticipated Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 is expected in February and, like the first game, is laser-focused on the life and times of one Henry of Skallitz, 13th-century Bohemia's biggest badass. It's also shaping up to be the all-consuming, open-world WRPG to beat, a subgenre still largely overshadowed by 2015's...

Sony released and then quickly obliterated the sci-fi multiplayer shooter Concord earlier this year, but we've yet to see the last of it; the game will be part of Amazon Prime's Secret Level anthology series. While the game itself was taken offline after a disastrous launch, the TV show — which adapts...
