Weekly Roundup of PlayStation News
What’s up guys, each Saturday ill be here to give you my weekly roundup of all things PlayStation, including trophy news and the big games coming to the PlayStation family.
This week I’ve not been playing much at all due to being stuck down doing university work, so will change things up this week with a recap on the big PlayStation news.
The big new of this week was the first exclusive gameplay trailer from Ready at Dawns, The Order 1886, it’s shaping up to be the huge game for the PS4 and everything about it looks stunning, Ru Weerasuriya had some things to say about what players can expect from the game when it launches at the end of the year.
“For melee, we’re leveraging some of the things we’ve learned in the past, even from the platformer days. We want to supplement ranged combat with something that players don’t expect. You’ll see more melee modes that will give you some complex options,”
In terms of house how they are using the new technology of the Dualshock 4, Ru also had this to say.
“We’ve worked with the controller to test all the different things we could do with it,” says Ru. “The issue is that the more complex and involved controller inputs get, the more it removes you from the immersive core experience. We don’t want to use it too much; we’re only using it for actions that feel natural. Tapping out Morse code just worked so well.”
The Order: 1886 is going to be huge for PlayStation, and the work that’s being put into it is really paying off as most fans are hyped for it. Look out for more info on the game in the coming months leading up to launch.
The other big news of the week was the unveiling of March’s lineup of PlayStation plus games.
