How will VR evolve the video game medium? What’s the number one thing a gaming VR experience has to get right? Will VR change the way that humans interact with technology? Those are questions we hope to answer during our PlayStation Experience panel “PlayStation VR and The Future of Play,” kicking off at 2:00 PM Pacific this Saturday, December 5th at PlayStation Experience in San Francisco, California.
During the forty minute discussion, we’ll welcome leading PlayStation VR developers, including Dave Ranyard from London Studio, Anton Mikhailov from Media Molecule, and other talented developers to discuss how VR will leave its mark on gaming and culture.
What: PlayStation VR and The Future of Play
Where: San Francisco, CA — Moscone West Hall, 3rd Floor
There’s no denying that one of the marquee features of Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Siege is its dynamic destruction engine. Walls, barricades, ceilings, and floors can all be destroyed, punched through, or otherwise mangled (not every surface is destructible, but enough are that the system doesn’t feel unduly artificial). It’s a wonderful feature, and changes traditional first-person shooter tactics dramatically. Here are six ways to experience all the beautiful destruction Siege has to offer. The Contractor Special The most obvious and widely used entry tactic in Siege is always going to be the breach charge. By placing these delightfully destructive...

Hello there! I’m Claire Bromley, Associate Producer at XDev Studio Europe and this is my first blog post, so hello there, PlayStation peeps!
Okay, let’s get right to it… I know it’s been a while since we last gave you an update on BigFest. On The Metal and XDev Studio have been busy and we can now finally announce that BigFest is available exclusively on PS Vita today!
Since our last blog post we’ve been focusing on bringing you the best BigFest experience possible, so for those of you who haven’t heard of BigFest before, let me bring you up to speed.
BigFest is a festival simulation game at heart, but with a twist: create awesome music festivals and choose who to put on stage from a huge global catalogue of real-life unsigned artists. Pick your favorites and promote them in your online festivals, potentially breaking the next big unsigned band! How cool is that?
Along with our friends at Jamendo, we’re bringing you a regularly updated catalogue of diverse unsigned artists’...
Hi PlayStation Nation! We’ve been burning the midnight oil creating Fallen Legion, a dark fantasy action RPG with hand-drawn 2D artwork and an intense battle system where skill is more important than grinding for experience points.
Fallen Legion begins with Princess Cecille standing on a battlefield, with her weary army behind her, gazing into an approaching beast brigade. The King of Fenumia’s threads of life were cut short and he passed on relics as well as the responsibility of ruling her crumbling country to Cecille. Among the king’s effects is a talking book that has the power to breathe life into weapons. This enigmatic Grimoire knows the truth about Fenumia and her home isn’t the idyllic kingdom the citizens believe it is.
I love RPGs and fighting games. This shows in Fallen Legion’s unique battle system that blends both genres together. Cecille brings up to three Exemplars — weapons turned into soldiers by the Grimoire — in battle with her. Zulfiqar is heavy hitter who...
Hello, everyone! My name is Adam Milecki, Game Producer at DegiGames. I’m here to talk to you about Dariusburst Chronicles Savior, the latest entry in the long-running, classic arcade shooter series.
Darius began as an arcade game in the late 1980s and was notable for its large arcade cabinet with super-wide screen, gigantic monster battleships, and branching levels.
To create the widescreen effect, Darius creator Taito actually utilized three whole CRT monitors side by side. This was a clever technique that allowed for a widescreen display using readily available technology. Combined with its super widescreen cabinets, Zuntata’s unique soundtrack made for an audiovisual experience that helped ensure Darius would never be forgotten.
This week, we’re bringing the Darius arcade experience to PS4 and PS Vita with Dariusburst Chronicles Savior. Dariusburst Chronicles Savior brings a lot to the...
