In a reflection of Sony's recent embrace of PC gaming, the platform holder has introduced the PlayStation PC brand for several of its games on Steam.
The new label popped up just recently as the publisher for Days Gone on Steam, and Video Games Chronicle reports that the name was registered back in April. It further solidifies Sony's intentions for PC, suggesting that PlayStation intends to bring plenty more games to Steam in the near future.
Already, several PlayStation exclusives have made their way to PC, including Horizon Zero Dawn, Death Stranding and Days Gone. God of War and the Uncharted: Legacy of Thieves Collection are both due in 2022. PlayStation has generally worked with external developers on these projects...

Apex Legends Season 11 Escape is right around the corner and we’re getting a lot of new content. From the biggest map, Respawn has released for Apex Legends yet, to a new weapon and Legend coming into the games.
There is a lot to take in, but don’t worry, I’ve got you covered. Let’s go over everything you need to know about Ash’s abilities, the new Stormpoint map, and the new CAR SMG.
A New Challenger - Ash
Let’s start with Ash. If you want a full breakdown of Ash’s lore and backstory I have a recap video you can check out above.
In terms of abilities, Ash heavily mirrors a Titan's abilities from Titanfall. Her tactical “Arc Snare” has her throwing out a projectile that shocks enemies and tethers them to the ground, reminiscent of...
Leave it to Snoop Dogg to deliver some of the biggest news of the day. Snoop Dogg says Dr. Dre is working on new music for an upcoming Grand Theft Auto game.
Snoop Dogg revealed the news while as a guest on the Rolling Stone Music Now Podcast. In an episode that will air on Friday Snoop said, "I do know [Dr. Dre] is in the studio... I do know he's making great f***ing music. And some of his music is connected to the GTA game that's coming out. So I think that that will be the way that his music will be released, through the GTA video game."
In an article published on Wednesday, Rolling Stone says a representative for Rockstar Games declined to comment.
There is a chance Snoop Dogg could be referring to the recently announced Grand...
Sony's latest State of Play presentation aired earlier today, and with it came plenty of updates for third-party games coming to PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5. Besides giving us our first big look at Little Devil Inside since June 2020, a brand new Star Ocean game called Star Ocean: The Divine Force is headed to PS4 and PS5 next year.
To make sure you don't miss any of today's PlayStation news, here's all of the news and trailers from today's Sony State of Play.
New Gameplay Shown for Little Devil Inside
Little Devil Inside was originally announced at the June 2020 PS5 reveal event, and today we finally got a look at some gameplay. We saw brief glimpses of cooking, hunting, and combat, but we didn't get a release date just yet...
During today's State of Play presentation, Young Horses announced that their goofy 2020 adventure about creatures that are kinda bug, kinda snack, is getting a major update early next year entitled The Isle of Bigsnax.
The Isle of Bigsnax, as the title indicates, seems to be a new area where the bugsnax from the main game are much, much larger. It takes place on a new island that's emerged from the bottom of the ocean, which several grumpuses from the main game -- Chandlo, Floofty, Triffany, and Shelda, specifically -- adventure to in order to explore its secrets. You'll get a new tool that allows you to shrink really big bugsnax down to a size that you can catch them at, and there will be a dozen brand new bugsnax to catch and snack...
Five Nights at Freddy's: Security Breach will be released on December 16, 2021.

Roxy, Chica, and Monty are working together with the Pizzaplex security to hunt you down. But you'll be able to work with Freddy Fazbear himself to survive the night. Utilize hiding spots, the Fazblaster, and Faz Cam to survive.
While I probably don't have to tell you, don't let the fun amusement dining aesthetic fool you, because there's a lot of...
Popular indie game Death's Door has a release date on PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5.
During today's State of Play livestream, Sony confirmed that Death's Door will be headed to PS4 and PS5 in late November. Originally released back in July, Death's Door is currently available for PC, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X|S.
Death's Door is a top-down action game that borrows elements from Dark Souls, though manages to retain much of its own identity. We were big fans of Death's Door when it was first released, and it has won critical claim for its high-quality action and striking visual style. It has a crow with a lightsaber. Who doesn't love a crow with a lightsaber?
Death's Door is out November 23. Check out the rest of our State of...

Ahead of the newest State of Play, PlayStation announced there would be a new, in-depth look at Little Devil Inside, an action-adventure game from the studio Neostream.
Little Devil Inside is a unique-looking title set in a kind of fantasy world with dragons and other mythical creatures. The story follows Billy, a young hero for hire handling side jobs in the idyllic countryside. Only after a job goes wrong Billy's whole life turns upside down.
Billy is able to fend off enemies using his sword, but also needs to survive by hunting and cooking food at safe campsites. Of course, different enemies...

Activision Blizzard is currently facing serious ongoing allegations of harassment and mistreatment of marginalized workers. To learn more, please visit our timeline as well as our in-depth report on the subject.
In an announcement that's sure to please the fanbase, Activision has said that Call of Duty Vanguard won't take up nearly as much space on your hard drive as previous games in the series.
The company announced the news in a tweet on Call of Duty's official Twitter page, stating that Vanguard's install size at launch would be "significantly below previous Call of Duty releases". According to Activision, this is due to "new on-demand texture streaming tech expected to save up to 30%-50%+ on next-gen consoles and PC hard drive...
Got a wide selection of deals for you today. Personally, I'd get Hot Wheels for my Switch, as it's the lowest price we've seen for this 9/10 racer. Likewise, one dollarydoo for a month of Xbox Game Pass on PC is a smorgasbord worth signing up for. Lastly, two Resi's for 20 clams is a top Xbox deal, as is 50 bucks for Dirt 5 on PS5.

With so many games constantly fighting for our attention and playtime, Ubisoft is turning to an interesting marketing strategy to get gamers to boot up Far Cry 6. Players who haven't jumped into Yara for a while are getting emails from Ubisoft trying to get them back into the game. What's more, these emails are presented as if they're messages directly from Giancarlo Esposito's El Presidente character, aggressively taunting players to jump back in to take him down.
A tweet from journalist Brendan Sinclair detailed the types of emails Ubisoft is sending out. One email from Ubisoft had "You disappoint me" in the subject line and "It was amusing watching you fail" in the actual body of the email. The email is supposed to read as if El...
Activision Blizzard is currently facing serious ongoing allegations of harassment and mistreatment of marginalized workers. To learn more, please visit our timeline as well as our in-depth report on the subject.
Blizzard has announced that it will be canceling BlizzConline, initially planned for early next year, while making an effort to reimagine future BlizzCon events to be more "safe, welcoming, and inclusive."
In a blog post, the company said the decision was fueled by a need to redirect the energy Blizzard would normally spend putting on the event elsewhere, specifically toward "supporting our teams and progressing development of our games and experiences."
Blizzard still plans to make some announcements for its portfolio of...

PlayStation has announced that the upcoming State of Play will include an in-depth look at Little Devil Inside.
In a short teaser trailer on Twitter, PlayStation shared a glimpse of Little Devil Inside's world, showing a brief shot of a train station.
Little Devil Inside was originally announced at the June 2020 PlayStation 5 reveal event. The trailer showed off two different stories playing out at the same time: a knight exploring a hostile world, and an old man living in Europe.
The game fell into controversy shortly after its reveal when many people on social media called out some of the game's racist enemy designs. The developers responded, promising to change the designs, saying, "Racist stereotypes of any kind were...
Spoiler warning: this article features no story spoilers for Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy, but does discuss one location from the game and details twenty items that can be found there.
Despite its pop music soundtrack, Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy is not based on the James Gunn MCU movie of the same name. Its inspirations go back to the comics, and with that comes a whole bunch of Marvel Easter eggs. A huge amount of these can be conveniently found in one location: The Collector’s Emporium. And while all of them are labelled up to make sure you’re not left in that dark, none of them reveal their comic book origins. And that’s where we come in: our video below looks at every item in the Collector’s Emporium, and the Marvel...

In an interview with Bloomberg, the Grier brothers didn't provide a sales number, but they noted that they were pleasantly surprised at the sales so far. "It’s hard to tell what's a huge success. Sony's happy," said Josh Grier. Mike Grier also mentioned that Sony put plenty of effort into marketing Kena: Bridge of Spirits because of the large amount of attention it was getting. It was revealed alongside the PlayStation 5 back in June 2020.

New leaks from Oculus appear to show a first look at the rumored Oculus Pro VR headset, The Verge reports.
Videos and images from the servers of Facebook, which owns Oculus, first leaked to Reddit before being downloaded by The Verge. The videos show CG characters interacting with a new, darker VR headset and participating in activities like meetings, character customization, and games like Beat Saber.
Though the videos are CG, they show off what appears to be full body motion tracking, new Oculus Touch-style controllers (without the ring that goes around your hands), a charging dock, and the Horizon Workrooms app, where users will host meetings and use presentation tools like a 3D image of a building blueprint.

343 Industries has revealed the date when the online multiplayer servers for several Halo games on Xbox 360 will close down: January 13, 2022. Back on December 18, 2020, the studio announced these servers would shut down no earlier than one year after it had posted the notice, but now a definitive date has been decided.
"To date, we’ve juggled future-facing work and priorities with continued upkeep of Halo’s Xbox 360 legacy services. Maintaining these legacy services today requires significant time and resources which directly impacts the studio’s ability to support current and future projects like Halo: The Master Chief Collection and Halo Infinite," wrote 343 Industries in a statement.

Esports and gaming organization FaZe Clan has announced its plans to go public through a merger that will value the company as a whole at around $1 billion.
The merger is with a blank check company called B. Riley Principal 150 Merger Corp — essentially a company that is founded and raises money specifically for the purpose of merging with or being acquired by another company. As a part of the merger, BDPM will pay an estimated $291 million to FaZe, which will be used to fund its ongoing global growth efforts —including potential future acquisitions. BDPM will change its name to FaZe Holdings Inc, and the combined company will trade under the ticker symbol FAZE.
The transaction is expected to close in the first quarter of 2022 and...
