Playstation has allegedly told its studios they can’t comment publicly on reproductive rights

Bungie’s CEO Pete Parsons has stated Sony Interactive Entertainment’s ( SIE ) imminent acquisition of the studio won’t stop the creators of Destiny from standing up for what it believes in.

Last week SIE Head Jim Ryan sent studio employees an email reminding them to “Respect differences of opinion” with regard to the sensitive subject of reproductive rights.

The email reminder which was sent after a leaked Supreme Court Draft apparently exposed plans to overrule Roe vs. Wade, which legalised abortion across the US is said to have enraged Playstation employees and sent shockwaves across all of Sony’s studios including Insomniac Games the creatives behind Spiderman.

According to leaked emails sent from Insomniac studio Head Ted Price, the studio had compiled a comprehensive reply to Playstation Studios boss Herman Hulst in which a large collective of Insomniac Studios staff appealed to the parent company to “Do better by employees directly affected” by the situation.

SIE are now reportedly working to improve inter-studio relations collaborating closely with Insomniac Games to put forward a scheme to provide financial aid to employees who have to make travel and temporary living arrangements outside of their home states to receive reproductive care.

Playstation is also reportedly planning to match a $50,000 donation Insomniac is making to the “Women’s Reproductive Rights Assistance Project”

Price however also added that Playstation won’t allow any of its studios to publicly comment on reproductive rights.

Bungie, the latest in a long line of targeted studio acquisitions in the early stages from Sony Playstation is one of the most high profile video-game companies to vocalise publicly its own position on the subject of reproductive rights in recent weeks.

“The leaked draft decision by the U.S. Supreme Court to overturn Roe v. Wade represents a blow to freedom in America and is a direct attack on human rights,” It had said earlier this month.

“Standing up for reproductive choice and liberty is not a difficult decision to make, and Bungie remains dedicated to upholding these values.”

It’s going to really suck if Sony put a muzzle on Bungie in future and stop them from doing actual hero shit like this https://t.co/zTl0dw1QBH pic.twitter.com/tZRrVqk9xn

Yes.

— pete parsons (@pparsons) May 17, 2022

Earlier in the week, a Twitter user added it would “really suck if Sony put a muzzle on Bungie in future”.

A senior community manager at Bungie responding to the comment offered full confidence that “there will never be a ‘muzzle’ big enough to stop us from standing up for what’s right.”

The statement was given full support by Bungie CEO Parsons, who simply replied “Yes.”

Sony publicly revealed in January that Bungie and Sony had come to an agreement to collaborate and operate under the Sony umbrella of its world-renowned creative Sony Studios. The agreement between Sony and Bungie allows Bungie full autonomy and freedom of publishing rights to its own Destiny and Destiny 2 IP remaining a wholly independant multiplatform studio and has reiterated that future Bungie releases will remain multiplatform for the foreseeable future.

The Sony acquisition of Bungie is reportedly valued at a whopping $3.6 Billion and is currently still pending due to FTC investigations but Sony remains confident expecting the acquisition to be fully complete by the end of the year.

The post Bungie CEO: We Won’t Be Muzzled By Sony After Acquisition! first appeared on Get2Gaming.

Insomniacs 2018 Spider-Man title is obviously one of the greatest superhero games of all time. I don’t think that’s a controversial statement, is it? It granted us a compelling, emotional Spidey story, thrilling fighting mechanics (which helped inspire NWH might we add) and all the villains our hearts could desire.

Not only this, but the recreation of the open-world of Manhattan is undoubtedly one of the best incarnations of the city I’ve ever seen in gaming. The Big Apple is jam-packed with exciting side activities, ranging from thwarting random dangerous crimes to collecting Howards lost pigeons. Just goes to show that no problem is too small for our friendly neighbourhood Spider-Man.

These side missions perfectly showcase the daily dilemmas our favourite hero faces. Not every threat is going to lead to a city-wide panic, which is what I think really helps make the character more relatable than other infamous superheroes such as The Avengers. Would you have seen Iron Man fetching lost purple balloons for children on the streets of NYC? I don’t think so.

Despite the wide variety of missions to delve into, there was indeed one unique activity which we’ve seen previously that failed to make an appearance. This one event has led fans to cry out for its addition in the upcoming sequel, but what exactly could it be?

Have fans missed the Pizza Time sequences from Spider-Man 2? Perhaps its the comic book collecting we did in The Amazing Spider-Man title? Or could it even be the decision-making we were forced to make in Web Of Shadows? Well, there’s only one way for you to find out! Before you continue reading, have a quick look at the sequels upcoming trailer down below:

Spider-Man Fans Hope For Fire Rescue Missions In Sequel

Of course it’s the Fire Rescue missions! How could it not be? A stalwart in every Raimi Spider-Man film, fans would love to see their transition to gaming once more  to add even more variety to the roster. Whether from freak accidents or calculated arsonists, any excuse to get them part of the game play would be very much appreciated.

Fans expressed their interest in seeing Fire Rescue Missions on Reddit, with the idea gaining popularity fairly quickly. Would you like to be swinging in saving civilians from falling debris? It’d certainly make you feel like Spider-Man, that’s for sure.

Formerly, we had seen them appear in the controversial movie tie-in Amazing Spider-Man 2 game. However, like the game itself, they were fairly hit-or-miss with certain players. For example, on reddit user suggested they would have to be implemented very differently if they were to be a success in the new game.

“Spider sense acts very differently so you won’t have to switch between looking for people and seeing the walls” says Kbcoolkid. “This will definitely make it easier. I still have PTSD from those awful fire missions and I would avoid them at all costs”.

Despite this, many others would still welcome the concept, as it allows them to feel like they’re saving people instead of just repetitively defeating enemies.

“I Strongly second that idea” writes Reddit user KuroiGetsuga. “It was one of the few things I liked in TASM 2, to go in, find people, and pull them out one by one. We need more events where we actually have to save people instead of just beating up bad guys. We have car accidents in Spider-Man PS4, but I miss the events from Ultimate where you actually had to carry people to the hospital before they bleed out and die”.

What’d you think of the addition of Fire Rescue Missions in Marvel’s Spider-Man 2? Is there any other side mission you’d like to see the web crawler take on? Let us know down in the comments below! Additionally, make sure to head over to our store to pick up the highly successful spin off title right away!

The post Spider-Man Fans Want Old Side Mission In Sequel first appeared on Get2Gaming.

Insomniac Games have stated why PS4 users aren’t getting exclusives for Marvel’s Spider-Man 

Spider-Man: No Way Home comes out in over a week here in the UK and it’s shaping up to be the film of the year, maybe even coming for Endgame’s crown for the highest-grossing MCU film in the franchise with how many tickets have been pre-booked already.

And, of course, it means games will be offering exclusives and tie-in events to the movie too, in order to increase the hype. Spider-Man is already coming to Fortnite, and fans can also expect exclusive content for Marvel’s Spider-Man too.

But only for PS5 users.

Marvel’s Spider-Man Remastered

The exclusive content for Marvel’s Spider-Man Remastered includes the red, black, and gold Integrated Suit and the black-and-gold suit from Spider-Man: No Way Home, which will be released on December 10, 5 days before the film drops in the UK.

As you may expect, only having exclusive content for PS5 users will cause an upset amongst the PS4 users, especially when the game was originally released as a PS4 exclusive, yet Insomniac Games gave a reason as to why PS4 users haven’t received this content.

Apparently, the 19 updates that have already happened for Marvel’s Spider-Man on PS4 was adding additional content that wasn’t originally planned and wears on the streaming performance from PS4’s hard drive, so Insomniac decided to leave the exclusive content out to ensure optimal performance for PS4 users.

Which, in turn, made fans angrier. They believe the reason is not justifiable and believe Insomniac Games is actually moving Marvel’s Spider-Man to be a PS5 exclusive only. The fact Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 is a PS5 exclusive, also backs up this theory.

It’s sad companies resort to this when people might not be able to afford next-gen consoles, so maybe Insomniac Games will listen to the backlash this exclusive content has caused.

The post Marvel’s Spider-Man: Fans Frustrated by Lack of Exclusives on PS4 first appeared on Get2Gaming.

Get ready Marvel fans, an MMO based on the Marvel universe is on its way! Interestingly, it’s being developed by people you may not expect. The likes of Square Enix have had their shot, as have insomniac, both having varying levels of success. However, now it’s time for DC Universe Online developer Dimensional Ink Studios to step up.

This information was presented by parent company Enad Global 7. It was then recorded by Streamer @mmmmmmmmiller. Quite the name.

For those familiar with Marvel, they will know that an MMO has been rumoured for some time now. This is because of leaked concept in 2019 that displayed character designs of Daybreak’s earlier attempt at a Marvel MMO. It was shown with a slide in the presentation notes that says “Unannounced MMORPG”. Moreover, it also says that it will be a “Marvel IP based massively multiplayer online game” which is set to be led by Jack Emmert, the former lead on City of Heroes and currently works on the DC Universe Online team. If you can’t beat them, join them I suppose.

Check out the thread below for all the information:

EG7 (DCUO/Everquest devs' parent company) released their Q3 '21 financials, and confirmed the unannounced AAA Marvel MMO that appeared in the GeForce Now leak and which had previously been cancelled in 2018 as the studio faced financial hardships has officially been REVIVED!! https://t.co/ho2gZcipa5 pic.twitter.com/jjVlMLHn1u

Marvel Stepping Up Moves Into Video Game Market

As we’ve previously mentioned, Marvel have been involved in quite a few games recently. After the success of Marvel’s Spider-Man on PS5 (get your copy here), Marvel have also released Marvel’s The Avengers and a Guardians of the Galaxy. It seems they’ve not only been busy with their new films and television shows.

Now trying to dominate all forms of media, it has also been confirmed there will be a sequel to Marvel’s Spider-Man and a new Wolverine game too. How exciting. Additionally, XCOM developer Firaxis Games have been producing Marvel Midnight Suns. Unfortunately, it looks to have been delayed from March 2022 to sometime later in the year.

A statement was published by the creative director Jake Solomon on the games social media. Essentially, it was noting that the development team needed extra time to improve the games quality.

“We know many fans were looking forward to playing the game originally next spring, and this decision did not come lightly,” he said.

“We decided to push our launch because we need more time to make this the best game possible. It’s important to believe in our creative vision for Marvel’s Midnight Suns and want to do justice in delivering an unforgettable adventure”.

This is a refreshing take by a games developer. We’ve seen too many rushed and lacklustre games in recent years, so it’s better to wait and get a fulfilling experience. Check out our online store to pick up some of the best sellers which haven’t been rushed!

The post Marvel MMO In Development At Surprise Developer first appeared on Get2Gaming.

Unfortunately, it has been well-known for sometime now that Marvel Avengers has not been doing too well. It’s lifespan so far has been extremely lacklustre, resulting in poor critic responses and fan trolling. They’ve hardly helped themselves, especially with the addition of paid XP boosters, which they were forced to subsequently remove.

In the words of Bonnie Tyler, developers Square Enix have certainly been ‘holding out for a hero’. What better hero to be waiting for than the friendly neighbourhood Spider-Man? If anyone can save the Avengers right now, it surely has to be our favourite wall-crawling hero. As Spider-Man has had so many video game iterations, players will always be interested in what sort of rendition we’ll get this time. Featuring in over 15 games, we hope this version is going to be a worthy addition to the collection.

One major question that players have been wondering is how old is this Peter Parker? The reason this is asked so much is because Marvel Avengers have introduced various characters in different stages of their superhero careers. For example, Kamala Khan is only just starting out in the world of the crime-fighting.

Previously, we’ve played as both rookie and mature Spidey before. Traditionally, he’s been seen as a college student, which is what the first image of Spider-Man in the game shows. It has now been revealed by one developer on a Reddit thread that he is indeed around college age. What a shock.

Additionally, the same developer went on to clarify that Spider-Man has in fact been a hero longer than Kamala Khan, but is not as experienced as the Avengers. His story supposedly begun after the events of A-Day, which is why he could further relate with Ms Marvel. It seems that Spider-Man is slowly developing into his peak but it remains to be seen whether he can single-handedly save the Avengers game. We can always hope.

As mentioned above, Spidey has had success in his past when it comes to video games. As a result, we thought it best to compel a list ranking the top five games the web-slinger has featured in. Hopefully, this new version of the character will bring the success these previous games have seen. So let’s dive right into it!

5. Spider-Man (2000)

Spider-Man’s first outing in the realm of 3D gaming was an overwhelming success. Activision were the ones responsible for this title, and perfectly captured the wit, charm and aesthetic which makes Spider-Man universally loved. Swinging and leaping from building to building was revolutionary at the time, as was the combat system which we hadn’t seen in any Spider-Man feature to this point.

Not only this, but the character roster was just absolutely brilliant. Appearances from Venom, Mysterio, Carnage and Scorpion really made you feel like you were thrown right into a comic book. Add on top of that some classic Stan Lee narration, and what more could you possibly want? This isn’t just an iconic Spider-Man game, but also one of the best games to come out of the original PlayStation.

4. Spider-Man: Web Of Shadows (2008)

Taking a darker rendition of the beloved superhero, Web of Shadows was a great example of original story-telling in Spider-Man games. We see Spidey deal with some inner demons caused by the appearance of the symbiotic suit, which gives players a great choice system helping to replicate the convoluted mindset of this particular Spider-Man. Along our journey, we take on the likes of Kingpin, Venom and The Tinkerer and fight alongside other iconic marvel superheroes such as Luke Cage and Wolverine.

In terms of game play, we had previously never seen such a brutal combat system in a Spider-Man game before. It was fast, fluid and had incredible animations to match. When you used the black suit, you felt a significant difference in power, meaning you never wanted to take it off. Overall, this is a highly underrated Spider-Man outing and definitely deserves its spot in this ranking.

3. Spider-Man 2 (2004)

Tobey Maguires second Spider-Man movie is arguably still the best Spider-Man movie to date. Until a few years ago, the same would have been said about it’s movie tie-in video game. Despite most movie tie-ins being monumental flops, this one changed the game when it came to game play. The engaging in-game traversal had never been better, with webs actually attaching to buildings. For the first time, you could feel the impact and momentum when travelling across New York and it was everything we had hoped for.

Furthermore, the game really developed the original narrative in a sincerely meaningful way. We see more of Peter’s struggles as a student as well as a variety of villains that weren’t explored in the feature film. This was the gold standard for how every Spider-Man should’ve been, and nothing quite matched it. That is until the next two games came along…

2. Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales (2020)

Whilst this game doesn’t let us take control of the traditional Peter Parker, Miles Morales does just as good a job as his experienced mentor. His first solo outing in a video game is filled with wonderful set pieces, excellent combat and an experience which any Spidey fan just can’t miss out on. Insomniac Games added new mechanics and a unique swinging style which makes him feel completely different from any other Spider-Man before him. Whilst the campaign is rather short, the overall experience is undeniably enjoyable which makes so high up on this list. Don’t be afraid to pick up a copy here and see for yourself! And now for the number one spot…

1. Marvel’s Spider-Man (2018)

Was there really any doubt? Insomniacs first outing with Spider-Man created the definitive wall-crawling experience. Not much as really needs to be said. The game has an unbelievably emotional story, a thrilling combat system and web-swinging which we hadn’t seen since Spider-Man 2 and that, ladies and gentlemen, is all we can really ask for in a Spider-Man game. We cannot wait for the sequel to come out, and we’re sure you can’t either.

So there we have it! That’s my personal list of every Spider-Man game so far. I just hope that the Spidey we see in Marvel’s Avengers can replicate any of these iterations. If you reckon Square Enix will do the character justice then let us know down below. We’ll get our first taste of the crime-fighting bug on November 30th, so be sure to come back here to see what we think of it! In the meantime, do be afraid to pick up the LEGO Avengers game right here!

5 Black Game Characters You Might Have Heard of

Black History Month is coming to an end and we think it’s time to have some appreciation posts rolling in for the games industry. We don’t get to hear much about the representation of black characters in video games too often. This month we’ve decided to put a number of games that have amazing black main protagonists or characters in games.

1. Dr Eva Rosalene – To The Moon

Source: Steam

Dr Eva Rosalene is one of the three main protagonists in ‘To The Moon‘. She is not only witty, but she’s smart and observant, she also shares a loving bond with her partner Dr Neil Watts. She plays a massive role in the story and To The Moon is a story-driven game developed by Freebird Games, and is about two doctors who travel through an old man’s memories to fulfil his dying wish. There is also the sequel called Finding Paradise, where Dr Eva Rosalene makes her return.

4. Barret Wallace – Final Fantasy 7 Remake

Source: Square Enix

Barret Wallace VA played by John Eric Bentley, and is a supporting character in Final Fantasy 7 Remake and certainly a very memorable one. Despite his strong attitude, rash decisions and he may not be the brightest at times, but there is one thing for sure. Barret cares about his family, he cares about his team and he cares about society, which is why he is working so hard to do what he does. Barret goes through a lot of character development and you go from hating Barret to eventually loving his character.  Final Fantasy is one of the biggest JRPG franchises at the moment, Final Fantasy 7 Remake being a very popular one and even owned a spot on the PlayStation 5.

3. Spider-Man Miles Morales

Source: Insomniac Games

Spider-Man Miles Morales VA by Nadji Jeter, we couldn’t leave him out. Miles is a great example of character development, the gameplay is carried by the wild, young, personality of Miles and his heroic actions after being dumped with a bunch or huge responsibilities…like saving the city. Spider-Man Miles Morales has been one of the best PlayStation Games sold and is in the top 10 of the best games for the PS5 so far.

4. Frey Holland – Forspoken

Recently at the PlayStation Showcase, Forspoken – a next-gen game had a gameplay trailer, starring Ella Balinska who is voice acting the main protagonist – Frey Holland in Forspoken. She is not only a voice actor but she has been working to help the game feel alive through her body movements, facial expressions with performance capture and much more. Ella is also well known for her acting in various movies such as Charlie’s Angels, The Athena and British TV series Midsomer Murders.  Forspoken will without a doubt be one of the biggest games to release by Square Enix in 2022, it’s lovely to see a black female protagonist coming up in such a great title.

5. Black Panther

Source: Square Enix

Lastly, we have another Hero from the Marvel Universe and that is Black Panther. In Marvel’s Avengers, an expansion pack DLC was released for Black Panther, named War of Wakanda. The Voice Actor is Christopher Judge, who is well known for his acting in The Dark Knight Rises, Stargate and Stargate: The Ark of Truth. War of Wakanda is a great DLC and is highly recommended. Not only is Black Panther seen as a hero, but he is seen as a leader who offers guidance to his community, as we know very well after having seen from the movies.

Thanks for Reading!

However! The appreciation doesn’t stop at 5! There are thousands of black content creators and game devs in the community who deserve appreciation! If you want to support and know more about Black Game Devs then why not keep up with their Twitter? @BlackGameDevs

The post 5 Black characters In Video Games, Do You Know Them All? first appeared on Get2Gaming.

PlayStation Showcase announced some epic upcoming releases yesterday and this one has certainly got people’s spidey senses tingling…

PlayStation Showcase took place last night and everybody was excited about the titles that were announced, including Insomniac Games announcing the sequel to its PS4 exclusive Spider-Man, with the PS5 exclusive Spider-Man 2. 

The news was announced in a reveal trailer for the PlayStation Showcase and revealed that Venom would be the main antagonist for the sequel too.

Spider-Man 2 Trailer Breakdown

The 1:37 length reveal trailer for Spider-Man 2 manages to pack a punch with the very few scenes of cutscenes and gameplay footage involved. It opens up with a shot of an eerie street at night in New York City (captured on a PS5) and the voiceover of Tony Todd (Candyman, 2021), starting what can only be described as the typical villain sinister monologue, but it still sends shivers down your spine with the suspenseful music playing behind his perfectly hoarse voice. We then see Peter Parker’s iconic blue and red Spider-Man suit along with a scene of him taking down a bad guy in his Iron Spider Suit, followed by a shot of Miles Morales iconic black and red Spider-Man suit and a scene of him taking down a bad guy. We then see a cut of the two of them working together as the unrevealed villain continues to describe how he has yet to meet his match, and as the camera cuts back to Parker and Morales standing together in the street staring into a dark alleyway, the voice hints that Parker and Morales could give him what he so “desires”. The suspense picks up as the camera shifts towards the alleyway and we hear the distinguishable voice of Venom replying to the question, and a split second of Venom’s face appears as the end scene for the trailer, and the trailer ends the game will be out in 2023.

Spider-Man 2: What We Know

Spider-Man 2 is going to be a PS5 exclusive, which worked really well for the original, having been initially released back in 2018 and has now sold over 18 million units so far, while the spin-off game, Spider-Man: Miles Morales, released last year has sold over 4 million units.

Tony Todd was cast as the voice of Venom in what is the perfect casting for the role as seen in the trailer above, and it has been confirmed Yuri Lowenthal and Nadji Jeter will return to voice Peter Parker and Miles Morales respectively. It has also been confirmed the original development team behind Spider-Man will be returning too.

We’re so thrilled to continue the journey of both Peter Parker and Miles Morales in their most epic single-player adventure yet. – Ryan Schneider, Head of Franchise Strategy and Studio Relations at Insomniac Games.

Insomniac Games announced another Marvel superhero is coming to PS5, which you can read about here.

2023 couldn’t come sooner.

Wolverine is here to usher in the next generation of gaming.

PlayStation had their showcase yesterday, and among the crop of fine games revealed and exhibited was Marvel’s Wolverine. Yes, you heard me, Wolverine. The Marvel Comics mutant with a healing factor and an adamantium-encrusted skeleton will star in his own upcoming game from Spider-Man developer Insomniac Games. Logan flexed his claws in a brief showing at the showcase, which was enough to get X-Men fans all giddy.

It is widely known that Wolverine is as iconic as they come. He has long been one of the most popular Marvel Comics characters ever, and it is only right he makes a next-gen appearance.

In a post on the PlayStation blog, Ryan Schneider of Insomniac Games said that while developers were working on Spider-Man, they would often talk about their ideas for making a game about Logan.

“Wolverine continually came up as the character we’d be really stoked to work on together,” wrote Schneider. That’s due in part to some core similarities between Logan and Peter Parker, he continued: “Both heroes feel deeply compelled to defend people who are less able to do so.”

Wolverine is a standalone game, with Brian Horton serving as creative director and Cameron Christian as game director. Christian was also the game director for Spider-Man: Miles Morales.

Insomniac Games will have its hands full with potential storylines to use as inspiration for the mutant’s upcoming game. However, the teaser included some hints about the tone that fans might expect.

Something worth noting is the bar’s name, The Princess Bar, confirmed by the board you see in front of Logan when the camera is completing that from behind shot. This bar is a frequently referenced establishment across Marvel entries, mentioned in various X-Men stories, and recently having a cameo in The Falcon and the Winter Soldier.

The mention of this bar means it is probable Logan is currently incognito, and some dark, twisted fate will bring him into the light.

We do not have a confirmed release date yet, but we know the game is coming exclusively to PS5.

I cannot wait for this one; it is about time the adamantium-clawed mutant gets his due.

In other news, we also received confirmation of an Alan Wake Remastered game at yesterday’s showcase.

The post ‘Marvel’s Wolverine’ Coming Exclusively to PS5 first appeared on Get2Gaming.

Yesterday, Sony announced it had acquired Nixxes Software, their second acquisition announcement from this week.

Herman Hulst, the head of PlayStation Studios, made an acquisition announcement over on Twitter, welcoming Nixxes Software to the PlayStation family. The studio has predominantly worked with various Square Enix Studios such as Crystal Dynamic, IO Interactive, and Eidos Montreal to port games for the Tomb Raider franchise, Marvel’s Avengers, and Deus Ex to PC. So what does this mean for PlayStation?

Jurjen and team @nixxessoftware helped us @guerrilla ship Killzone Shadowfall in time for PS4 launch. We already enjoyed working with them back then!

— Hermen Hulst (@hermenhulst) July 1, 2021

The History of PlayStation’s Studio Acquisitions

Microsoft has been the one to make studio acquisition headlines in most recent years with the company acquiring smaller studios like Double Fine, to larger studios like Bethesda last year. This has caused fans wanting Sony to step up their ante, but the company has been very deliberate with what studio it acquires.

Insomniac Games was PlayStation’s first official studio acquisition in 2019, which was no surprise to anyone given the fact the two companies have an extensive history creating franchises together such as Resistance, Ratchet & Clank and the recent Spider-Man games.

Earlier this week, Playstation announced its second major acquisition, Housemarque, another studio that has worked with the company in the past, including games such as Returnal (pictured below) and Matterfall. PlayStation is undoubtedly playing it safe and buying studios it already has a great relationship with, yet the Nixxus acquisition hints at future possibilities.

What Nixxes Software means for PlayStation

While the studio did help Playstation with the Killzone Shadowfall PS4 launch, this acquisition could be incredibly valuable to PC players. A lot of speculation had already begun with Nixxes being the ones to port Sony franchises to the PC after Herman Hulst hinted what players could expect in 2021 and 2022 regarding PC games.

“We’re still early on in our planning for PC. And Horizon Zero Dawn has been very successful. I think it shows there’s an appetite from gamers outside the PlayStation ecosystem to experience the amazing portfolio of games that PlayStation fans have enjoyed for years,” – Herman Hulst, PlayStation Blog.

Hulst also added that PC gamers are valued and PC releases will happen at the “right times”.

If Nixxes does port more PlayStation games to PC, it would be interesting to see what games and how many PlayStation exclusives will stay exclusive. What Playstation games would you like to be ported to PC? Comment down below to let us know!

The post PlayStation Acquires Nixxes: Are More PC Ports On Their Way? first appeared on Get2Gaming.

The long-awaited PS5 exclusive game has been receiving well critically and by the fans, but no game is ever perfect. The game came under a lot of scrutiny recently with all the bugs players kept finding, however Insomniac Games has now released the latest patch for Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart, which brings a dozen of bug fixes and a system that boosts FPS for certain TVs.

What’s New for Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart?

Bug Fixes

The 1.002 patch update included a wide variety of minor tweaks and improvements including; several common physics, animation, interface, and audio glitches; a bug where players could complete the same Glitch Challenge twice and locking them out of later challenges; and resolved issues where killing certain Grunthor enemies would not count towards the Extinction Event trophy, a crucial requirement for said trophy.

Yet the most significant addition is a system that boosts the game’s frame rate on certain TVs.

120 Hz Fidelity Mode

The update lets the player choose to enable 120 Hz Fidelity Mode, a feature that typically prioritises visual effect over performance by locking the game at 30 FPS, yet players can now choose to enable this mode in the game’s graphical settings in order to boost the fps to 40 FPS.

The Fidelity Mode supported a Hz refresh rate during the Racthet & Clank: Rift Apart’s launch, however Insomniac removed it due to it’s compatibility issues. Now, players with 120 Hz TVs are able to use this feature again.

The most notable benefit of this system is that the game looks significantly smoother on Fidelity Mode. The Performance Mode still offers the smoothest experience, but the new update closes the gap significantly. Players will also experience reduced latency, thus more responsive controls from the 120 Hz Fidelity Mode.

Other New Features

Players can now also disable Phantom Dash VFX in all gameplay or photo mode, disable level-up messages and bind “skip cutscenes” to the cross button, and a whole bunch of new features to Photo Mode, including coloured backgrounds and the ability to hide your armour.

Hey All!
We added a few things to Photo Mode today! My favorite is the ability to isolate your favorite lombax by adding a solid color background for awesome hero shots!#RatchetPS5 pic.twitter.com/Xe60WIAhVD
