The excitement is palpable as Xbox and Obsidian’s action RPG, Avowed, gears up for its PlayStation 5 debut next month. Set to launch on February 17, this release coincides with an anniversary update that promises to enhance the gaming experience significantly. With the introduction of a New Game Plus mode, new races, weapon types, and a Photo Mode, players can expect a more rounded experience compared to the original game.

In a surprising turn of events, Jorg Neumann, the head of Microsoft Flight Simulator, revealed that the initiative to bring the beloved game to PlayStation 5 was his own idea. This move is not just about expanding the game’s reach; Neumann believes it has sparked a significant trend of Xbox titles making their way to Sony’s console. This could reshape the gaming landscape as we know it. Neumann’s vision for a PS5 version emerged after the team decided to drastically reduce the game’s file size and utilize cloud streaming.

The recent update for Blue Prince on PS5 addresses critical save file issues, making it a significant improvement for players. This first-person puzzle game, which has already garnered acclaim for its unique gameplay, now offers enhanced save functionality that will undoubtedly elevate the gaming experience. The update reduces save file sizes by approximately half, speeds up profile switching, and introduces daily backup save files, ensuring players can resume their adventures without losing progress.

The anticipation for Ghost of Yotei is reaching a fever pitch as PlayStation gears up for a State of Play event that promises nearly 20 minutes of new gameplay footage. Scheduled for July 10, this livestream will be hosted by Sucker Punchs Creative Directors, Jason Connell and Nate Fox, who will provide insights into the games mechanics and storyline. With a release date set for October 2, 2025, exclusively on PS5, fans are eager to see how this title builds on the legacy of its predecessor, Ghost of Tsushima.
