Preview: Genshin Impact, Honkai: Star Rail Dev Has Quietly Become a PS5, PS4 Powerhouse | Push Square

Developer Larian Studios hasn't taken the foot off the gas since Baldur's Gate 3 launched, pushing out the second hotfix of the week and the ninth since the game launched on PC at the start of August, with those coming to the PS5 iteration, which launched in September. That's in addition to three full patches, the most recent of which (amongst many other things) improved PlayStation performance, as well as introducing the character-editing Magic Mirror.

Bandai Namco has tapped into the hype surrounding the second season of Spy X Family, releasing the first full gameplay trailer for its upcoming PS5 and PS4 adaptation, Spy x Anya: Operation Memories. The game has Boku No Natsuyasumi vibes to it, as you’ll be accompanying the eponymous pink-haired heroine on holiday with her adopted family, and engaging in various minigames.

In the market for something new to play on your PS5 and PS4? Well, you’re in luck, because Sony’s just plunged the price of almost 3,000 more games on the PS Store, across both consoles. These new deals have arrived to replace the outgoing Extended Play sale, which finishes later today, so make sure you’ve grabbed everything you wanted from that before it’s too late.

Looking for beginner's tips, tricks, and how to play Honkai: Star Rail? HoYoverse's free-to-play turn-based RPG is one of the most compelling live services on the market, but it borders on impenetrable for the uninformed. Our comprehensive Honkai: Star Rail guide includes a crash course on everything you need to know about the game, but if you're looking for a more specific list of beginner's tips, tricks, and how to play, then this page has you covered.

The new PS5, colloquially known as the PS5 Slim, will replace the original model next month – and its main selling point is its detachable disc drive. For Sony, this design tweak will streamline its manufacturing process – but for consumers, it’ll also provide flexibility. The remodelled machine will also come in 30 per cent smaller than its predecessor, which is a significant footprint reduction.

Honkai: Star Rail has arrived on PS5, and we wouldn't like to guess how many people are hitting the download button right now. In case you don't know, this is another incredibly popular gatcha-based, free-to-play title from HoYoverse — the developer behind the colossus that is Genshin Impact. Honkai: Star Rail's been available on mobile for a while now, and if you're anything like our borderline obsessed editor Sammy, then you've probably already sank hours into that version in anticipation of this PS5 port.

Head on over to the PlayStation Store today and you may notice that Atlus has just released something called 'The Persona Collection'. It's a digital bundle that includes Persona 5 Royal, Persona 4 Golden, and Persona 3 Portable. It's priced at $89.99 / £72.99, which is obviously less than what you'd pay if you bought the three titles separately (when they're not discounted, at least).

Battlefield 2042's grim vision of the future marches ever onwards, with the shooter's sixth season of live service support set to kick off on 10th October (rookies can play for free from 12th-16th).

Honkai: Star Rail is one of my favorite games that was released this year. It’s a glittering sci-fi adventure from Hoyoverse, the developers of the global hit Genshin Impact. The game boasts a stunning anime-inspired art style and some of the best and zippiest turn-based combat I’ve played in a long time. On Wednesday, the developers released the game on PlayStation 5, so now even more people will have a chance to try it.

miHoYo Games’ free-to-play turn-based RPG Honkai: Star Rail is now available on PS5. It launched for PC, iOS and Android earlier this year and crossed 20 million downloads on its first day. Check out the trailer for the PS5 version below.

Comparing Neuvillette in with other 5-star characters that have similarities with him is quite enticing, seeing that the new character is a powerful main DPS that works in quite a unique way. Neuvillette is the Chief Justice of Fontaine and is responsible for the entire judicial system overseen by Lady Furina, the mortal vessel of the Hydro Archon, Focalors. He was first introduced as an NPC with the release of the Fontaine region in Version 4.0 but has since become a fully playable 5-star character in 4.1. Neuvillette uses Hydro powers in battle and a catalyst as his weapon of choice.

Version 4.1 for Genshin Impact, “To the Stars Shining in the Depths,” is available for PS4, iOS, Android and PC. A new live-action trailer is live for the same, though it’s more of a celebration for the free-to-play action RPG’s third anniversary. Check it out below.
