Ghost of Yotei Collector's Edition Revealed, Preorders Start May 2

Game News - Thu, 04/24/2025 - 06:13

PlayStation has revealed that Ghost of Yotei will launch on October 2 with three different editions for PS5. Preorders for Ghost of Yotei's pair of physical editions, including a Collector's Edition that's exclusive to PlayStation Direct, will begin on May 2 at 10 AM ET. All preorders include several pieces of DLC.

If you want to play the original before Ghost of Yotei's release, you can pick up Ghost of Tsushima's Director's Cut for $49.49 (was $70) right now. Ghost of Yotei takes place 300-plus years after Ghost of Tsushima, so you don't technically need to play Sucker Punch Productions' first entry in the action series. That said, playing it would give you a pretty good idea of what to expect from Yotei. Though the cast of characters is entirely new, the premise and themes will sound familiar. You'll once again embark on a revenge mission as "The Ghost."

Ghost of Yotei Preorder BonusesGhost of Yotei preorder bonuses

Preorder any edition of Ghost of Yotei to unlock an exclusive in-game mask, plus seven PSN avatars. These feature concept art of characters from the game--including the main character Atsu and the notorious Yotei Six. It’s unclear if there will be any retailer-exclusive preorder bonuses.

The Last Of Us 3: Everything We Know About The Unconfirmed Game

Game News - Thu, 04/24/2025 - 06:01

Will we ever get The Last of Us: Part III? Naughty Dog's gaming franchise is back in the news lately thanks in part to the popular HBO show starring Pedro Pascal and Bella Ramsey, leading to questions about a possible continuation of the video game series

No new entries have been announced, but Naughty Dog developers over the years have dropped clues and made comments about returning to the post-apocalyptic world numerous times. To be sure, The Last of Us: Part III is not confirmed--and it may never happen. But there is a chance, so with that in mind, we're rounding up everything we've heard about a new Last of Us game.

Table of Contents [hide]The Last Of Us: Part III Could Happen "If The Stars Align"

The most recent comments about The Last of Us: Part III came from Naughty Dog's Neil Druckmann, who wrote and directed the first two games. During a promotional interview for The Last of Us Season 2, Druckmann was inevitably asked about a third game. He said he's not ruling it out, but he's not confirming it either.

The Last Of Us Season 2's Shocking Episode Had This Unexpected Positive Effect

Game News - Thu, 04/24/2025 - 05:18

Streams of a song featured at the end of the newest episode of HBO's The Last of Us surged by more than 1,000% on Spotify, the streaming service has announced.

The cover of Shawn James' "Through the Valley" by Ashley Johnson and Chris Rondinella jumped by more than 1,000% in the US since Episode 2 aired on Sunday, April 20. Developer Naughty Dog responded to Spotify's announcement with a heart emoji. Presumably streams of James' original version rose, too, but Spotify didn't release any stats about this.

Johnson, of course, performed the role of Ellie in Naughty Dog's The Last of Us video games and originally recorded the cover of "Through the Valley" to promote The Last of Us: Part II in 2016.

New Assassin's Creed Board Game Features Asymmetrical Gameplay, Spans Multiple Eras

Game News - Thu, 04/24/2025 - 04:46

Mantic Games, the team behind Halo: Flashpoint and Worms: The Board Game, has revealed a Kickstarter campaign for a new Assassin’s Creed board game. Assassin’s Creed: Animus will let you dive into the Assassin’s Creed story with up to three other players, though further details are scarce. You can, however, sign up to be notified when the Kickstarter officially opens--for now, the landing page offers just the smallest glimpse into what the game will entail.

According to the current listing, Assassin’s Creed: Animus is a board game built for two to four players. Rounds can last up to 90 minutes and take you through multiple historical eras, allowing you to craft your own adventure in the Assassin’s Creed universe. A blog post from Mantic Games revealed a bit more about Animus, including asymmetrical characters and the need to balance your own objectives while fending off the other players.

Assassin's Creed: Animus

It sounds quite intriguing--and considering Mantic Games is responsible for plenty of other video game adaptations, it’s certainly one to keep your eye on. Be sure to sign up for notifications if you’re interested in checking out Assassin’s Creed: Animus or backing its campaign.
