The rather charming-looking Harold Halibut has landed itself a release date.

Almost four long years after its original announcement, Red Thread Games has confirmed Dustborn will launch for PS5, PS4 on 20th August 2024. A new trailer debuted during today's Future Games Show announcing the release date, which you can catch above. The game will cost $29.99 on the PS Store, with a physical edition available at a higher price.

The Explore page on the PS5 home screen appears to be running a beta that adds new features like backgrounds, friend activities, your controller's battery life, and easy links to console storage.

Studio Media Molecule has been winding down its live development and support for Dreams for a while now, as it shifts towards work on its next big game.

A glut of additional PS5 and PS4 games are coming to PS Plus Extra and PS Plus Premium this week, and as is usually the case, there's a lot of variety on show. March's update, which consists of 13 titles across the two tiers, has everything from sports sim NBA 2K24 to ultra-niche Super Neptunia RPG.

Following just over a month of beta testing, Sony has now rolled out the latest PS5 firmware update to all. It's available for download now for everyone that wasn't included in the beta phase. As per the PlayStation Blog, here are all the new features included:

Pitched as a comprehensive monster truck experience, with 40 rigs included in the base game and more to follow through free and premium add-on packs, the developer is promising to leverage its “technology and expertise [to] deliver an approachable yet rewarding experience”.

This time, you can save up to 60 per cent on the Deluxe Edition of Demon Slayer: The Honokami Chronicles, making it just £21.99. You’ll also find Bloodborne’s Game of the Year Edition for just £14.99.
