The next instalment in D3Publisher's long-running Earth Defense Force series has been available in Japan for well over a year, but Western fans of the bug-blasting shooter can finally look forward to checking it out too. The company has at last revealed when we can expect it to head our way — Earth Defense Force 6 is launching on PS5 and PS4 in the west in Spring 2024.
Swery65 and Suda51 Join Forces with Hack and Slash Action Game Hotel Barcelona | Push Square
28.09.2023 - 00:05 / pushsquare.com
Two legendary game designers, Swery65 (Deadly Premonition) and Suda51 (No More Heroes), are collaborating on a new game, titled Hotel Barcelona. We've just been treated to our first look at what the game looks like, and it's a side-scrolling action game with a tongue-in-cheek vibe and, of course, plenty of bloodshed.
The premise is that the titular location is filled with American serial killers, all stuck in a time loop and pitted against crazy enemies inspired by horror movies. With your deceased past selves to help you, you'll be platforming and mowing down enemies with a range of weapons, with boss characters parodying the likes of Jaws, Halloween, The Texas Chain Saw Massacre, and more.
It looks pretty bonkers (and, let's be honest, pretty rough), but a collab from this pair is at least worth checking out. The game is set to hit PS5 sometime next year. What do you make of Hotel Barcelona? Let us know in the comments section below.
Having grown up alongside PlayStation, Stephen has developed an eclectic taste in video games and a wide knowledge of the medium, from small indie gems to the biggest AAA blockbusters. Ever hopeful that the Burnout series makes a miraculous return.
Literally my dream team. All you need is Kamiya and that plastic fella from Yakuza and it’s the Avengers of the best of mental Japanese games from the 00s.
Looks good. The map in the bottom right of the screen reminds me of Odin Sphere Leifthrasir.
On a side note, I wonder if Deadly Premonition 2 will ever see a PS5 release.
I am all in on this despite any jank it may have, or rough around th edges gameplay. It looks fantastic, and some of my favorite games this year have been less than mainstream (looking at you Wanted Dead).
They should have called it “Hotel Barcelona 116”

Sand Land Is Shaping Up to Be a Super Promising Sandbox Adventure | Push Square
Bandai Namco has debuted a new developer diary series for Sand Land, the upcoming sandbox action game based on Akira Toriyama's one-volume manga. Just about everything that we've seen of the title so far has shown promise, and the new gameplay that's on display here — along with explanations of mechanics from producer Keishu Minami — has only served to enhance our enthusiasm. The video's well worth a watch if you're even slightly interested in the game.

My Favourite Game at Tokyo Game Show Wasn't Actually on PS5, PS4 | Push Square
Regular readers will know, perhaps rather unusually, I love trains. I’ve been covering Train Sim World in intimate detail for years now, much to developer Dovetail’s pleasure. (I will get around to reviewing Train Sim World 4 by the way, it’s just the schedule’s been brutal for me this past month. Also, maybe the studio would like to slow down just a touch with the sequels and expansions so I can catch up?)

Bandai Namco Is a Publisher Quietly on the Up | Push Square
No one really talks about Bandai Namco, but the publisher’s doing a bang-up job. Last year it released Elden Ring, which not only proved a critical darling but also a break-out commercial hit. The action RPG ended up becoming a cultural touchstone for 2022, and it helped underline a really impressive run for the Pac-Man maker.
