Sony’s PS4 exclusive Horizon Zero Dawn is no longer a PS4 exclusive, as the game is reportedly coming to PC later this year.

Horizon Zero Dawn has served as one of this generation’s most highly-received new properties, and it’s gone on to sell millions of copies for the PS4. Sony is reportedly tasking their Guerilla Games studio with porting the game to the Epic Game Store as well as Steam. The move makes sense, given that the game has been available for three years and has likely reached peak saturation on the PS4 platform. This move would then give Sony access to a new slate of customers that are willing to shell out $59.99 for the title.

This would be the first first-party Sony game being ported to a different platform that the PlayStation brand. The company did serve as a publisher for Quantic Dreams and saw Heavy Rain, Detroit: Become Human, and Beyond: Two Souls ported to PC last year, but those weren’t Sony-owned

A new Tetris mobile game is coming to iOS and Android devices, bringing the world’s most popular video game of all-time to players on the go.

The game is launching in a basic mode, letting players get in on one mode and five different skins. The game is playable with swipe controls and haptic feedback and will be expanded more in the future. The game is developed by N3twork, and they say that an online leaderboard for the game will also be launched in the near future.

Speaking about the game N3twork’s CEO Neil Young noted: “We’re launching Tetris with a traditional solo gameplay mode, but we want fans to know that we’ve got so much more in store for them. This is just the foundation of an incredible Tetris app experience we’re building at N3twork.”

The launch comes after EA’s Tetris Blitz and Tetris 2011 mobile games were pulled from the mobile app stores from Apple

For the second consecutive year, it appears that Sony will skip E3, dealing another blow to a conference that many are seeing as obsolete.

The E3 expo has previously been used to showcase new game announcements for the upcoming year, with the likes of EA, Xbox, Bethesda, and Sony taking part in putting together shows that are equal parts spectacle and hype. Last year Sony announced that they were skipping E3, as they didn’t have any major announcements to make at the show. This year, it appears that Sony is saving their announcements for their own event. The company had previously held PlayStation Experience for fans, and it’s a possibility that this could come back to hype the upcoming PS5 console.

We don’t have firm details on just what Sony is planning to showcase the system, but we’re expecting it to see it launch to the world in the last quarter of this year. The console is highly-anticipated, seeing as how the

When it launches later this year, the Xbox Series X Console’s next-gen first-party games will work with the company’s Xbox One iterations, at least for the console’s first year.

The announcement was made by Microsoft’s Matt Booty, who said that the goal is to make players who invested in the Xbox One platform recently to feel like they’ve gotten a good value. This is a particularly customer-friendly move by Microsoft, who seems to be learning from the mistakes they made with the XB1 to start the generation.

Speaking about the decision Booty said, “As our content comes out over the next year, two years, all of our games, sort of like PC, will play up and down that family of devices. We want to make sure that if someone invests in Xbox between now and [Series X] that they feel that they made a good investment and that we’re committed to them with content.”

We don’t have a full list of Microsoft’s titles being developed for the

While the likes of Twitch and Mixer are the big-boys of the spectator based streaming platforms, YouTube TV has lagged behind a bit. The company is looking to rectify this with the signing of three big-name streamers to exclusive content deals.

Lannan “LazarBeam” Eacott, Elliott “Muselk” Watkins and Rachell “Valkyrae” Hofstetter were each signed to the deals, which will see them creating content through the YouTube Gaming and YouTube brands. The three gamers have more than 21 million subscribers between them, while also holding large audiences on other platforms.

It appears that 2020 may be the year that we see an announcement from Rockstar Games that they’re officially working on Grand Theft Auto 6.

The rumors stem from a job posting for Rockstar, where they’re looking for a Post-Production Video Editor, who specifies that they must have experience working on both drama and documentary-style video. This could indicate that the studio is working on a new Grand Theft Auto title, although there could certainly be other titles that are possible. The timeline does seem to line up with a new Grand Theft Auto game being in the works, seeing as how the previous entry was initially launched in September 2013 on Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3, before eventually being ported to current-generation platforms.

Without a doubt, a new GTA game would likely be launched on the next-gen Xbox Series X and PlayStation 5 consoles, seeing as how the current systems are beginning their slowdown in terms

Nintendo’s uber-successful Switch console may be seeing a new release in 2020, as rumors are swirling that the Switch Pro may be incoming.

While the Switch is selling like hotcakes, the console is severely underpowered when compared to the likes of Microsoft’s Xbox One and Sony’s PlayStation 4. This has been evident with the likes of Overwatch, which has seen multiple technical problems while trying to emulate the performance of its peers. This has led to speculation that Nintendo will release a new version of the Switch that has increased gaming capabilities, with increased frame rates and resolution possible.

Taiwanese site DigiTimes claims that the production of the new console could start in the first half of 2020, with the device available for sale at the mid-2020 timeframe.

Nintendo has already released a new version of the Switch, bringing the Switch Lite, which is meant

Although it’s drawing to the end of its lifespan, Sony’s PlayStation 4 console is continuing to chug along, becoming the second-best-selling console of all-time.

Sony announced at CES 2020 that the PS4 has sold more than 106 million units, beating out the likes of the original PlayStation and the Nintendo Wii, Nintendo Entertainment System, and Xbox 360. This is impressive when you consider the home console space, although we should note that if handheld sales are taken into account, the PS4 would be the fourth-best selling console of all-time.

In terms of the home console space, the PS4 sits behind only the PlayStation 2, which moved more than 155 million units. The 106 million figure will continue to grow as well, as sales of the PS4 will likely continue for the next few years. The console will also see major new releases this year, with the launch of The Last of Us 2, Ghost of Tsushima, and Final Fantasy 7 Remake.

News regarding Sony’s upcoming PlayStation 5 console has begun to come out, with Sony showing the system’s new logo at CES 2020.

Leaks have also been released showing the dev kits, as a cleaner at a developer snapped some pictures of the device. Unlike the boxy Xbox Series X, the dev kit for the PS5 is more obtuse, featuring a “V” look to it with a small disc slot on the bottom left. The DualShock 5 controller has also been snapped with the dev kit, showing a bulkier controller that’s awfully reminiscent of the DualShock 4. The DS5 also brings a raised touchpad as well as the adjustable tension of the triggers, which Sony has officially mentioned.

We’re still waiting on official word from Sony on the technical specs on the console, but we do know that it will feature hardware-based ray tracing technology and include a 4K Blu-Ray drive. The exact processing power isn’t known, but we expect it to be on par with the

A legendary piece of gaming history will be going on the auction block in February 2020, as the owners of the Nintendo Play Station are selling the device.

The device will go on sale via Heritage Auctions, who’ll sell it for owner Terry Diebold. Diebold used to work at a company that went bankrupt. During the company’s liquidation sale, Diebold bought a lot of property from the office, including some possessions of a former executive that also used to work at Sony. One of the items included in the lot was a Nintendo Play Station prototype, which was being worked on between the Japanese electronic giants.

The device is essentially a Super Nintendo with an attached CD drive, which was developed by Sony. The two groups were working together to enter the digital medium space to compete with the likes of Sega, whose Sega CD promised larger storage for games. Unfortunately for Sony, Nintendo bailed on them at the last minute,
