He’s an icon for many reasons and while Marvel prepares the sequel to Spider-Man: Homecoming, Sony has been working on an animated theatrical Spider-Man film. The film, titled Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, will focus primarily on Miles Morales, a half-black, half-latino teenage boy who rises as a hero after the death of Peter Parker in the comics.

EA is one of, if not the biggest games publisher in the entire industry. They have their hands in almost every major sports property, original iconic IPs like Battlefield, and probably the biggest thing under their umbrella, Star Wars. After the lukewarm reception of 2015’s Star Wars Battlefront, EA and DICE knew they had to go big with the sequel. While it is co-op, it has many aspects of a single-player game. Star Wars Battlefront II is out now on Xbox One, PS4, and PC.

To keep the excitement alive, Sony will be releasing a PSVR mode for Wipeout in 2018. The mode looks incredible and really exciting, giving you a visceral look at what it’s like to be in the driver’s seat of those “cars”. Wipeout VR has no specific date yet.

One of the most anticipated games of 2018 is PlayStation’s all-new God of War game. A lot of us got pretty damn excited earlier this week when a release date popped up on the PlayStation Store earlier this week suggesting that it was releasing in just three months on March 22nd, 2018. At PlayStation Experience, Sony Santa Monica’s golden boy Cory Barlog came out on stage to discuss the game and stayed tight-lipped on the release date. They just finished up some playtesting sessions and the game’

Shadow of the Colossus is just under two months away, and for fans who own Sony’s upgraded hardware, you might be wondering just what sort of enhancements you can expect to come your way. According to Executive Producer, Yasutaka Asakura, PS4’s Shadow of the Colossus will feature two modes of play similar to that of Nioh, a Cinematic and a Performance mode. As you can probably surmise, Cinematic mode prioritizes image quality by rendering the game at 4K and locking the framerate down at 30 FPS.

PlayStation is bringing back Sir Daniel Fortesque with yet another PS1 remake in MediEvil. Here’s the trailer:This MediEvil Remaster appears to be just the original game, which also got a PSP release as MediEvil Resurrection back in 2007. But this remaster will be a 4K re-imagining of the game many fans grew to love when it released in 1998. While it may not be MediEvil 3, it’s still exciting to see the series make a comeback; and who knows. If fans show Sony the money, they’ll probably get a Me

Monster Hunter: World is easily one of the most anticipated games in the early release window of 2018, and it looks like the game will be getting a small crossover with one of Capcom’s biggest brands.

PlayStation gamers have been unable to change their tags outside of making a new account altogether, but that could be changing according to Shawn Layden. Speaking to KindaFunny’s Greg Miller (via Gamespot), Layden said: “I hope we’ll see events occur that you won’t have to ask me [about Gamertag changes] next PSX.” Steam currently sits as the pinnacle standard for user-friendly Gamertag changing, as their system involves having two names. You have a Community ID that is visible to everyone, and

Epic Games is pretty ticked off about all the cheaters running amuck in their shooter, Fortnite. Since then, Epic Games has settled with one of the cheaters, Charles Vraspir. “Defendant’s cheating, and his inducing and enabling of others to cheat, is ruining the game playing experience of players who do not cheat,” Epic Games wrote. If Vraspir breaks this agreement, he will have to pay $5,000 to Epic Games. Epic responded to the mother by saying that she exposed her son in her own letter by not
