Sadly, exactly dates were not provided. Watch Dogs Legion and its unique gameplay was originally slated to release March 6, 2020, but now it could release anytime between April 1, 2020 through March 31, 2021. While it seems likely that it will release in the earlier part of that fiscal year, an exact release date has not been confir

Ghost of Tsushima 's delay is a little different in that its it is entirely dependent upon The Last of Us 2' s. Reports indicate that, because of the aforementioned delay, Ghost of Tsushima was delayed further into 2020 to give the two big PS4 exclusives some breathing room, as it was supposed to launch sometime in early 2020 after TLOU 2 . It's also worth mentioning that it did not yet have an official release date, so this may not be a traditional delay.

Interestingly, though, Sony launched The Last of Us on PS3 earlier that same year. While the specifics of the PS4's launch date were unknown at the time, many were preparing to say goodbye to their previous console and welcome a new one into their homes. Then came The Last of Us to the tune of rave reviews and incredible sales. Clearly people couldn't wait for the PS4 and had to game right

All you need to do is see Resident Evil 2 running on the RE7 engine to be convinced that this is something special. It’s rare that a developer gets the opportunity to take what it has learned about a series and then apply it to earlier games, but Resident Evil 2 seems to be that culmination. There are so many little touches in Resident Evil 2 remake that it actually feels like a new game, despite the setting and the story being exactly the same (based on what we played). There is no doubt this game is going to be a cant-miss for horror fans early next y

It will definitely be interesting to seen how Sucker Punch being a western developer impacts the feeling and atmosphere of Ghost of Tsushima as a whole, but so far what we've seen looks great. If you want to get more intimately familiar with the game's setting, you can also check out DualShockers' deep dive into the History of Fedual Ja

Capcom went ahead and confirmed the existence of Resident Evil 3's remake. In a nice fakeout, the "State of Play" announcer revealed it as "the campaign portion of Resident Evil Resistance, " which confirms that the game will have a full multiplayer mode. It will be heading to PS4 (and presumably Xbox One and PC) on April 3, 2020. For more information, click he

When it comes to waiting just a little longer for these games, it's best to remember the words of Shigeru Miyamoto: "A delayed game is eventually good, but a rushed game is forever bad." Hopefully, that proves to be the case for each of these ga

While this premise and story are much different than anything Sucker Punch has worked on before, Nate Fox finds something romantic about feudal Japan and believes it to be a setting underused by western develop

Perhaps Sony wasn't thinking with its wallet in mind, but the release did set a precedent for the future. Games released towards the end of a console's lifecycle now had the potential to show up in enhanced form on that console's successor.

Just yesterday, Sony announced that it would be delaying the release of The Last of Us Part II to give developer NaughtyDog more time to polish it up. While still unconfirmed, a recent report by Kotaku's Jason Schreier has stated that Ghost of Tsushima has also suffered a delay because of Sony’s decision.

Since Ghost of Tsushima may be launching mere weeks before the PS5, maybe a PS5 disc will simply click for source be the PS4 version with any relevant patches applied. It would certainly make for a good excuse to release a "Game of the Year" edition and label it a PS5 exclus

When Watch Dogs Legion was unveiled and it was revealed that there were several playable characters such as the granny assassin, it was a big deal for the franchise. Watch Dogs 2 wasn't everyone's cup of tea, but this showed real promise. Shortly after Sony's delays were revealed, Ubisoft followed up with several delays of its own, including for Watch Dogs Legion . Ubisoft essentially explained that it was due to recent under-performances such as Breakpoint , which could have been caused by too many games releasing too closely together, so it chose to delay three games into the next fiscal y
