Available to download now on PS5. There's been some variation in the technical experience some people are having in The Witcher 3 Remastered, so CD Projekt Red has been quick to deploy updates on PS5 to fix any lingering issues. Case in point: patch 5.01 is available to download now. The update delivers enhancements and tweaks to gameplay, the UI, and addresses some console-specific elements. For example, there are performance improvements, updates to frame rate limits on base PS5, and the graphics menu now features the ability to tweak bloom, light shafts, and the depth of field.

Remember: only predictions, for now. According to Ampere Analytics, tentpole Insomniac action game Marvel’s Wolverine sold about 2.16 million copies in September, making it the second best-selling PS5 game of the month, behind EA Sports FC 27. (Obviously.) It looks like a soft number on the surface, especially when you consider this is accounting for around two full weeks of sales. (The title is likely to be frontloaded, partly due to its nature and also because it doesn’t have particularly glowing word of mouth behind it.) Read the full article on pushsquare.com

I recommend you take a look. I want to be 110% clear before we properly get into this article: ANOMALITH channels classic Resident Evil, but it’s nowhere near as good. Don’t go into this demo expecting Capcom quality, because you won’t get it. That said, this scrappy little survival horror shooter reminds me of the original Resident Evil Revelations in a positive way – it’s got that simplistic, mindless kinda feel to it which I sometimes appreciate.

A six-hour deep dive into the action title. All bets are off once GTA 6 comes out, but in the weeks leading up to it, you have to let Phantom Blade Zero take up all of your free time. I played six hours of the game on a trip to Beijing, China (more on that in the future) and found it to be one of the most confident and impressive Western debuts from a developer in years. This is not a studio finding its footing in the action genre; it’s one already primed to lead it. Outstanding combat and boss encounters will make the S-GAME effort one of this year’s greatest experiences. Read the full article on pushsquare.com

If you narrow the data to Europe, however, it shows how the continent is continuing to support physical media in the face of Sony's decision to halt the production of boxed PlayStation games from January 2028.

Kingdom Hearts Collection I~III is perfect for those interested in delving into Disney and Square Enix's weird, wonderful, and often convoluted action RPG world for the first time, but for a longtime fan like myself, the lack of enhancements makes it hard to justify a purchase. As the name suggests, this package includes every Kingdom Hearts title from the 2002 PS2 classic, all the way up to the most recent mainline instalment, Kingdom Hearts III. However, Kingdom Hearts: Melody of Memory is not included, which is a shame, as there are some loose threads that may be important for the upcoming Kingdom Hearts IV.

Take your pick. The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt Remastered is out now in most regions across the globe, so we thought it would be interesting to see what the deal is with mods on console — specifically PS5. In case you don't know, the remaster boasts mod support, bringing over player creations from PC. Using mods disables Trophies, but if you've already played through the game before, the inclusion of new content might be enough to bring you back. Read the full article on pushsquare.com
