This is John Watson (Founder and Technical Director at Stoic) here and I’m thrilled to share that our epic Viking RPG strategy game The Banner Saga is coming to the Xbox One on Tuesday, January 12, 2016. We’ve been hard at work on bringing the game to consoles for a while now, but the process did take some time and presented some unique challenges. We had to ensure that the experience of The Banner Saga remained the same when you were playing at home on a couch with a gamepad in hand, so we spent a lot of time redesigning...

Lance from Versus Evil here to share some great news about The Banner Saga! It’s officially launching for PS4 on January 12th, 2016.



John Watson has been working on bringing the game to consoles for quite a while. The process involved not only getting Banner Saga playable on consoles, but redesigning the user experience to better fit PS4 and DualShock 4. John and Mark Cooke spent quite a while narrowing down the specific user experience and ensuring that the Banner Saga experience was true to form while holding a controller in hand. We’re all happy with the work that went into the PS4 version of The Banner Saga and we’re eager for all of you to start your own saga.

The Banner Saga has you live through an epic role-playing Viking saga where your strategic choices directly affect your personal journey. Make allies as you travel with your caravan across this stunning yet harsh landscape....

Hey everyone! Kai from Frozenbyte here with some great news. We’ve managed to hit the Christmas launch window with Trine 3: The Artifacts of Power, and it’ll be available digitally for PS4 on December 22nd!

The third game of the series has been renewed quite a lot and as you may have heard, Trine 3: The Artifacts of Power has full 3D gameplay.



Trine 3: The Artifacts of Power is a 3D platforming game set in a beautiful fantasy world of vivid colors, and is also a mixture of puzzles, adventure, and action. You’re playing with three distinct characters: a Wizard specialized in conjuring boxes and levitation, a stout-hearted Knight with powerful fighting abilities, and an elusive Thief who excels at fighting from afar with her bow and overcoming obstacles with her grappling hook. Each character will help you in different ways on your and action-packed journey.

The story starts off with the Heroes...

In the final video presentation dedicated to the Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U games, creator Masahiro Sakurai provided many details about previously announced character Cloud from FINAL FANTASY VII, as well as introduced two new playable fighters to the franchise: Corrin from upcoming Nintendo 3DS game Fire Emblem Fates, and Bayonetta from the critically acclaimed Bayonetta games.

Earlier this year, we announced a partnership that made PlayStation the best place to play Call of Duty. Just last month, Call of Duty: Black Ops III launched on PS4 and broke several PlayStation launch records. I’m proud to announce that we are bringing together the number one console in the world with Call of Duty: Black Ops III in a brand new Call of Duty: Black Ops III Standard Edition PS4 Bundle, available for $349.99 (MSRP).



This bundle features a 500GB PS4 system and DualShock 4 wireless controller in Jet Black, as well as a copy of Call of Duty: Black Ops III. With the first DLC map pack, Awakening, making its way to PlayStation 4 in early 2016 (a full 30 days before you can play it anywhere else), now is the perfect time to jump into Call of Duty: Black Ops III on PS4. We’re pretty...

Hey PlayStation fans. I’m Jason Koohi from Team Zanrai. We’re a very small team comprised of myself for direction, art, and sound and our programming guru, Simon Inch. We’re behind the retro-inspired, local-multiplayer battling game known as Stardust Vanguards — and today we’re very excited to announce that we’re bringing it to PS4 on January 19th, 2016!

Stardust Vanguards at it’s core is a swansong to competitive, free-for-all multiplayer. Two to four players will take on the roles as valiant military leaders as they equip themselves in giant robots armed with only an energy sword and an auto-targeting machine gun (with very limited ammo). You can dash right into a fight or play defensively as you use your blade to reflect bullets back at your enemies and slice through your friends.

Arcade action is the name of the game as you’re rewarded for skillful attacking and precision dodging as you weave through bullets. You’ll die in only one hit so every move counts. The twist on this...

Hi everyone, this is Dan again — Community Manager on Unravel. I’m here with two things that I know people looking forward to Unravel are excited for. First, I’m happy to confirm that Unravel is launching on February 9th, 2016. It’s still a few months away, but it’ll be worth the wait.

Unravel is a physics-based puzzle platformer where you play as Yarny, a tiny new character made from a single thread of yarn that slowly unravels as you move. You have to traverse nature’s obstacles inspired by the breath-taking environments of Northern Scandinavia.



Unravel will be available on PS4, and we’re really looking forward to telling you more about the game in the near future. You can find out more information on the...
