Sony has officially cut the price of The Order: 1886

When released in February earlier this year, The Order: 1886 didn’t do as well as expected. Quite a few retailers began slashing the price of the game quite a bit soon after it’s release. Some offered it for half of it’s original price.

Both Amazon and Best Buy, just last month, were selling off their stock of the game for just $20 (near enough £13) which is the cheapest it has ever been. Sony has now officially cut the price of the game themselves. The official MRSP on the game is now $40 (around £26), which is actually still more than most retailers are selling it for. Amazon are selling the game for $30 (about £19.50).

The Order: 1886 was actually the first big flop on the PS4. So much so, that Sony has actually cut ties with the game’s developer, and they did so just after a month of the game’s release.

Photo Mode is coming to the highly successful PS4 Exclusive!

It has recently come to light that the PS4 Exclusive, The Order: 1886, will be receiving a Photo Mode. This was teased back in February and will be joining in with other PS4 Exclusives such as The Last of Us Remastered and Infamous: Second Son.

According to the PlayStation Blog, this mode will be arriving on the game’s latest patch, and has also come with a tutorial video to show how it works. You can watch the video HERE.

Do remember though that enabling this new photo mode will turn off the game’s Camera Bias option, if it is enabled!

The Order: 1886

The Victorian Steampunk-inspired game hits the No.1 spot in UK chart!

I am ecstatic about this news… Over the moon, in fact! The PS4 exclusive has managed to blast it’s way into the No.1 spot in the UK chart, despite having a bit of a rocky launch regarding it’s short campaign length. This triumph marks the very first time that Sony’s in-house team has created a chart-topping title since August 2014, with The Last of Us Remastered. Adding to this, being a widely promoted title may have also had something to do with the game’s success.. As well as looking and sounding incredible.

Due to this, a 66% drop in sales led to 2K Games’ Evolve to plummet from the top spot and down into third, just behind Activision’s long-standing shooter Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare. Promotions in retail for Far Cry 4 bring this game up to fourth place. Unfortunately, due to a 70% drop in sales, Majora’s Mask 3D (remastered for Nintendo 3DS) has dropped from second place to eighth!

Here are the current top ten in the UK chart. Do you agree with where they stand?…

1) The Order: 1886

2) Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare

3) Evolve

4) Far Cry 4

5) Grand Theft Auto V

6) FIFA 15

7) Minecraft: Xbox Edition

8) Zelda Majora’s Mask 3D

9) Minecraft: PlayStation Edition

10) Destiny

The Order: 1886

A brand new story trailer has been released for the PS4 Exclusive

Ready at Dawn’s upcoming game, which is due to ship in February, has been highlighted with a brand-spanking new story trailer which Sony has released today. This release is following Monday’s announcement that The Order: 1886 had gone gold.

This story trailer introduces the viewers to developer Ready at Dawn’s Victorian Era London. This is also showing off the characters, weapons, environments and much more that the players will encounter along the way. 

The game was originally set to release in 2014 but, like so many other games, inevitably saw itself slipping into 2015. It’s totally worth the wait though! The now set release date is 20th February 2015.

There will also been some bonuses for those who pre-order this delightful game, which include bonus weapons and costumes! You can watch the freshly released story trailer HERE, on our ‘Exciting Game Trailers’ playlist on YouTube. Just under a month to wait!!

Top Ten 2015

My personal favourites in the gaming world which are to be released this year!

I think we can all agree when I say that this year is going to be seeing some pretty awesome releases, from what I’ve seen, and I’ve picked a personal “top ten” for you to feast your peepers on! So.. Let’s get cracking shall we?!..

10. 

At No.10 we have ‘Hellblade’. The story is based on Celtic myth. The trailer is focused on Senua, Hellblade’s protagonist, as she embarks on a very personal journey through a hellish underworld. Ninja-class combat, strong character stories, and a unique art vision will be taken to the next level in this game, which is developed by Ninja Theory. The release date has not yet been confirmed, but just by looking at Senua and her attire, you just know that it’s going to be a good one!

9. 

In at No.9 we see the next instalment to the Halo franchise, ‘Halo 5: Guardians’. Peace is shattered when colony worlds are unexpectedly attacked. And when humanity’s greatest hero goes missing, Spartan Locke is tasked with hunting down the Master Chief and solving a mystery that threatens the entire galaxy. What’s not to like from the plot of this infamous first-person shooter?! A release date is yet to be confirmed for this year, on Xbox One, but it’s worth the wait!

8. 

Next we have ‘Raven’s Cry’, which will be released throughout this month on Windows, Xbox 360, PS3 & PS4. A dark action-adventure role-playing video game that interweaves fictional events and characters with historical ones from the 17th century Caribbean. This game is said to feature ruthless pirates and historically accurate architecture whilst following the story of Christopher Raven, who sets off on the road to vengeance to find the scoundrels who murdered his family, a journey that might see him lose his soul too. A good old fashioned pirate quest!

7. 

Moving in at No. 7 is ‘Star Wars: Battlefront’, which is the third main entry in the Battlefront series and due to release this holiday on Windows, Xbox One and PS4. DICE did not brand the new game as a sequel to Battlefront II, but a reboot to the franchise. The game will also include the moon Endor and the planet Hoth as playable maps. The game will also be tying in with the release of the film ‘Star Wars: The Force Awakens’. Well, two for the price of one here!

6. 

In at old No.6 is ‘Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End’, which will be available to play on the PS4. I’ve thoroughly enjoyed this franchise, ever since it begun, and it’s never failed to get the old ticker beating! A release date is yet to be confirmed but it’s another that’s worth the wait. Drake is now a retired fortune hunter who will embark on a globe-trotting journey in pursuit of a historical conspiracy behind a fabled pirate treasure. Naughty Dog has said that this will be Drake’s “greatest adventure yet and will test his physical limits, his resolve, and ultimately what he’s willing to sacrifice to save the ones he loves.”

5. 

Halfway there! At No. 5 we have ‘Life is Strange’, which consists of 5 episodes. The first is set to be released on 30th January on Windows, Xbox 360, Xbox One, PS3 & PS4, with six weeks in between each episode. After many years of being away from her hometown, senior photography student Maxine Caulfield returns to Arcadia Bay, Oregon. She reunites with her estranged best friend Chloe Price, and discovers that Chloe’s father had died the year Maxine left town. Since then Chloe has lived with an irreparable sorrow. She found support in a girl named Rachel Amber. But then Rachel went missing under suspicious circumstances. Max and Chloe decide to jointly investigate Rachel’s disappearance, and thus make their way to unravel the city’s hidden secrets. Very Heavy Rain/Twin Peaks!

4. 

Gliding in at No.4 (literally) is ‘Batman: Arkham Knight’, which is to be released in June on the PS4 & Xbox One. I bet you thought this’d be No. 1, didn’t you?.. As much as I love dear old Bats, he didn’t quite make it. My apologies! The game’s main storyline is set one year after the events of 2011’s Batman: Arkham City and follows Batman, at the peak of his ability, as he confronts the Scarecrow, who has returned to Gotham City to unite Batman’s enemies in a plot to finally kill the Dark Knight. Guess what else is introduced?.. THE BATMOBILE!! As a drivable vehicle! Oh it’s all too exciting..

3. 

Nearly, nearly there! In at No.3 is ‘Bloodborne’, which is coming to the PS4 in March. The game takes place in the gothic, ruined city of Y’harnam which is rumoured to house a potent medical remedy. The player takes the role as one of the travellers and must navigate the streets of Yharnam and overcome its violently deranged inhabitants and horrifying monsters in order to survive. Well.. That’s right up my street and look at those weapons! Gothic and gory; two of my favourite words.

2. 

Almost had the top spot but not quite, it’s ‘Assassin’s Creed: Victory’. The game is set to be released late this year but a date is yet to be decided. We don’t know much about the upcoming addition to the franchise except that a few photos were leaked last month, which reveals a brand new assassin and appears to be set during the Victorian era in London (hooray!). One of the leaked photo sequences also reveals a grappling hook item which, according to Kotaku, allows the character to attach to pretty much any surface around and escape or close in on a target with immense speed. Well, I guess it’s goodbye Napoleon and hello Jack the Ripper!

1. 

It’s finally here and I’m sure you’ve seen me prattling on about this left, right and centre, but it’s my No.1.. ‘The Order: 1886’. This is set to be out on 20th February on the PS4. The game is set in an alternate history London, where an old order of knights keep all of the world safe from half breed monsters, who are a combination of animal and man. In the game, you are a knight, a member of an ancient order, and you will take centre stage in this fight for mankind’s survival. As the game takes place in an alternate history, you will be able to interact with real-world historical characters who will aid you in your quest. You will see and navigate real places. You will not only be a witness, but have a hand in real events that have unfolded. Being a huge, huge fan of Steampunk, this had to be my No. 1, and just look at the weaponry!!

So there we have it. My top ten releases for 2015! I hope it has given you an insight of sorts and has encouraged you to purchase ALL OF THE GAMES YOU SEE HERE!!
