PS Store Plunges the Price of Almost 3,000 More PS5, PS4 Games | Push Square

Warner Brothers Studios is turning 100 this year, and to celebrate, the folks at Humble are bringing us another killer bundle featuring some of the best titles from the WB Games library. The “Play the Legends” bundle lets you scoop up 12 awesome games for just $15, all while benefitting a nonprofit organization.

Publisher Square Enix and developer Gemdrops have released the launch trailer for action RPG remake Star Ocean: The Second Story R, as well as details on the rest of the game’s party, the Ten Wise Men, Assault Actions, and New Game+.

Despite confirming its development, Rockstar Games still hasn’t officially showcased the next Grand Theft Auto (which suffered a massive leak last year). It was recently rated by the Australian Classification Board, which could mean an announcement is forthcoming. For now, French publication Rockstar Magazine has some new details on graphical improvements in the sequel.

Epic have dropped a bunch of details as to planned improvements for the Epic Games Store in the on-going race to out-Steam Steam - the Coca-Cola to Epic's Pepsi Max. Amongst other things, we can expect more robust search features, support for third-party subscriptions, better EGS launcher performance, a download manager with improved controls, and a new "for you" personalisation tab - all of that rolling out across 2024 and 2025.

After weeks of leaks and rumours, Intel has officially announced its 14th Generation of Core desktop CPUs, starting with a total of six new models. There's the Core i9 14900K, i7 14700K and i5 14600K, along with KF variants missing the iGPU component. Prices for each one are the same as the previous generation and you're getting a bit more clock speed, an update to the i7 configuration, and that's mostly it.

Sony is using the opportunity of the PS5’s smaller, slimmer relaunch to stealthily bump the price of the Digital Edition in the United States. While we already know you’ll need to pay extra for a standalone vertical stand, the organisation has also made the decision to hike the overall cost of the non-Blu-ray unit by $50. This means, moving forwards, the disc-less device will increase from an MSRP of $399.99 to $449.99.

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.

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.

It's been reported that Disney's executives are urging CEO Bob Iger to heavily invest in video games. That's according to Bloomberg, in a wider report detailing the company's current struggles.

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).

What are the best The Simpsons games? When The Simpsons first aired in late 1989, few could have anticipated its cultural impact. While its appeal may have waned slightly over the past 30 years, it remains the longest running American animated series, racking up over 700 episodes and counting. Created by Matt Groening and depicting the exploits of an average, everyday family, its cast of characters – including the titular Simpsons – have become household names.

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).
