The Game Awards 2019 Predictions
Nobody knows when The Last of Us Part II will finally release, and if they do, they're not telling. The next largest Sony first-party title after Naughty Dog's sequel is likely Ghost of Tsushima , the new IP from developer Sucker Punch, a studio best known for working on games like Sly Cooper and Infamous . The Japan-set fallen samurai revenge thriller looks to be shaping up to be one of 2020's breakout hits, but now fans are concerned that Sony might delay the Highly recommended Site-anticipated title from its previously-scheduled June 26 street date, to the point where fears about the game's release status have caused Ghost to become a trending topic on Twitter, as recently reported by Game Ra
Aside from The Last of Us Part II , which will release on May 29th, Ghost of Tsushima is likely to be one of the last major PlayStation 4 exclusives, with the release of the PlayStation 5 set for the end of 2020. Following Sony's announcement that they would forego E3 yet again, and with no State of Play presentations currently announced, fans had begun to wonder when a release date or more information on the action-packed samurai title would emerge. Thankfully, today's new Ghost of Tsushima trailer gave those players exactly what they had been waiting
Details on the PS5’s launch are still a little scarce so the latter half of 2020 is more on the empty side for Sony as of now, but that could obviously all change with a PS5 reveal event . The first half of the year is going to be huge for the PS4 though, as it’s getting (and has gotten) a big exclusive title every month until June. In February, Sega’s _ Yakuza 5 _ and Sony’s own _ Dreams _ (by Media Molecule) launched on the PS4, but the games that most people have their eyes on start to come out in Ma
Developed by PlatinumGames, Bayonetta 3 was initially announced at the Game Awards in 2017. There was no gameplay whatsoever. Just a very brief teaser showing Bayonetta's legs and Scarborough Fair, her set of pistols aptly names Parsley, Sage, Rosemary, and Thyme. The last we heard about the game was back in September of 2018 at Bitsummit Roadshow where Hideki Kamiya and Atsushi Inaba said development was going "very, very we
From a historical perspective, Khotun Khan appears to be based on Kublai Khan, who was the Great Khan of the Mongol Empire during this time. Although he was technically the fifth Khagan of the Mongol Empire, Kublai's reign is known for his founding of the Yuan dynasty in China after conquering it and ruled until his death in 1294. He was able to expand the borders of the empire from the Pacific Ocean all the way west to the Black
This is where the success came to an end. After an initial surge inland, a senior commander had been injured and eventually died. It's unknown why the Mongol didn't capitalize on their success at this point. Instead, the army hung back near their ships with some reports indicating that many of the ship captains were concerned about a larger Japanese force showing up. Others speculate low supplies or the death of the senior commander having an impact on the campaign. Ultimately, the Mongols decided to retreat back north to Korea under the blanket of night. This proved to be unwise as they encountered severe storms which reportedly sunk 200 ships with 13,500 men l
These are uncertain times, and the state of the world seems to be shifting on a daily basis. Video games are relatively low on the totem pole of immediate crises facing civilization at the moment, but with so much of the population forced to self-quarantine for their own safety and the safety of others, it's easy to see why the passionate PlayStation fandom would be worried about the release status of tent-pole titles like Ghost of Tsushi
Sucker Punch has set the bar very high for themselves with their past success making Sly Cooper and Infamous games. Throughout three generations of PlayStation consoles, the developer has been a mainstay for gamers on the platform. It seems like Ghost of Tsushima is up to the challenge of raising the bar higher than ever before, as Sucker Punch looks to cap off the PlayStation 4 with perhaps it's last AAA exclus
I think there is an argument for any of these games to be this year's Game of the Year. But out of all of these, I think The Outer Worlds takes home the gold or whatever that cool looking trophy is made out
Following the news that The Last of Us Part 2 has been delayed indefinitely , all eyes turned to June when Sony's next big exclusive title would be launching. For now, Suck Punch remains adamant that Ghost of Tsushima remains on track for launch, though with the ever evolving global pandemic, things could suddenly change on a d
The trailer begins with a confrontation between a travelling Samurai and the man himself, The Ghost of Tsushima. Although it was ambiguous before as to whether or not The Ghost was the playable character, it now seems confirmed that he is. The narration throughout the trailer tells us that The Ghost is a mythic figure, one who many thought left for dead in a battle years ago. But The Ghost survived what many believed to be a terminal infliction and is now dedicated to avenging himself. If there was any doubt as to the graphical fidelity of Ghost of Tsushima , rest assured that should be squelched now. Last year, Sony Boss Shuhei Yoshida remarked on the impressive graphics in the game . It's no easy task for developers to keep visual fidelity high throughout development, especially when adding so many new features, textures and art assets into the g
