NIS America has announced that its celebratory HD makeover of the original Disgaea will be coming to PlayStation 4 and Switch in Europe on October 12th.
Disgaea 1 Complete, as the newly revamped version is known, arrives as part of the series' 15th anniversary celebrations. The first title in in the series, Disgaea: Hour of Darkness, launched on PlayStation 2 in 2003, and immediately won fans thanks to its blend of satisfying turn-based tactics, outlandish levelling, and daffy humour.
This first title follows the adventures of Prince Laharl as he attempts to conquer the Netherworld and become its Overlord - with the anniversary remaster introducing HD visuals and a new Etna Mode, welcoming characters not found in the original release.

, but never has the issue seemed as petty - and yet also as big - as it has this week.
I'm talking about if trying to log in using an account which has ever played Fortnite on PS4. To reiterate: this isn't even cross-play, this is simply logging in.
Even if you've only played Fortnite once on PS4, and play the majority of your Fortnite on PC or mobile (these platforms are compatible), you will still be blocked from using your account on Switch. Your only option is to create a new account to play.

Shawn Layden and Mark Cerny deserve a lot of the credit for why Sony's PlayStation 4 is sitting at the top of the console war. While the Nintendo Switch is giving them a run for their money now, it went on sale much later and it is still making up for Nintendo's failure with the ...]

Motorsports game 'The Crew 2' is now available on PC, Xbox One, and PlayStation 4.

May 2018 is the 15th month that the Nintendo Switch has been available for. During the latest month the gap grew in favor of the PS4 during the same time frame by 22,396 units when compared to the Switch during the same timeframe and by 58,295 units in the last 12 months. The PlayStation 4 is currently ahead the Switch by 1.53 million units. The PlayStation 4 launched in November 2013, while the Nintendo Switch launched worldwide in March 2017. The Switch has sold 17.33 million units, while the PlayStation 4 sold 18.87 million units during the same timeframe.

I'm calling it, I'm finally letting go of Alan Wake. There is more to Remedy than its hoodie-and-tweed-wearing writer hero, and more to the studio's trademark brand of pulpy sci-fi than his gravelly, never-ending voice-overs. This is a good thing. Six years on from Wake's last outing, with no sequel in sight and Remedy's odd, live-action hybrid Quantum Break out of the way, Control feels like a clean break for Remedy.
Control is the studio's first game for PlayStation 4 - its first for any Sony platform since Max Payne 2 on PS2 - something underlined by its unveiling at Sony's E3 conference. ("It felt like a good way to announce it this way and make this statement," Sam Lake, Remedy's chief writer and public face of the studio tells me after.) Control is also a clean slate to tell a new story with a more modern approach - albeit one which will still feel familiar to the studio's fans.
The demo shown to press at E3 2018 is a proper peek at what everybody saw during the game's Sony conference trailer. You play as Jesse Faden (Courtney Hope, AKA Beth in Quantum Break), who like all Remedy protagonists is skilled in third-person shooting and physics manipulation while exploring dark, mysterious surroundings. These surroundings will host a big change for Control - a space to explore with a narrative path, but also side-missions and Metroidvania-inspired exploration. At one point in the demo we pass a series of prison cells, the unlucky occupant of one screaming for help. It's a side-mission which we can return to later.

A former Sony developer has said the great PlayStation 4 cross-platform block is all about the money.
John Smedley is the ex-boss of Planetside 2 and H1Z1 developer Daybreak Game Company, which changed its name from Sony Online Entertainment in 2015.
In a tweet referencing the fact , Smedley said Sony's controversial policy comes down to money.

Fallout 76 will get a beta - and it begins first on Xbox One.
In a recently updated , Bethesda said the beta for Xbox One will begin first, followed by other platforms (PlayStation 4 and PC via Bethesda.net).
Bethesda has yet to say when the Fallout 76 beta will kick off, but we do know you have to pre-order the game to get in. Bethesda said that's the only way to get access to the beta.

Ticket to Ride has already seen a release on console, with the Xbox 360 getting a version back in 2008. Now, with the help of Asmodee Digital, Ticket to Ride is heading to PlayStation 4. The move will see the digitised version of the popular tabletop game make full use of the console's PlayLink initiative, with a release date of "later this year". Using PlayLink, each connected player will be able to interact with the board via their phones, thereby keeping all their cards in their hand rather than visible to all who are curently playing in couch co-op. “Digital board games are a natural fit for Sony PlayLink, and bring the tradition of board game nights to PlayStation gamers,” Pierre Ortolan, Asmodee Digital’s CEO, said. “By casting the game to a phone screen, players can hide their hands and plan their moves without revealing everything to their opponents. PlayLink allows us re-create the traditional board game experience while keeping the benefits of playing digitally. We are honored to have partnered with Sony Interactive Entertainment and look forward to sharing ‘Ticket to Ride’ with PlayStation gamers.” Hopefully if this goes smoothly then another of Asmodee Digital's titles might also get the PS4 treatment – Catan VR was released for PC earlier this year and boy would I like to see that head to PSVR.
