Killzone Mercenary dev working on next-gen game, job listing reveals.
The ad seeks a "senior environment artist to join [Guerrilla Cambridge's] world-class art team working on PS4", but doesn't drop any hints as to what the game could be.
A second job listing posted at the end of last year also sought work for "a major future project" using an "established rendering engine".
Cambridge has yet to release a home console title since becoming a sister studio of Guerrilla Games, having only released PS Vita title Killzone Mercenary last year.
Prior to working with Guerrilla, the studio worked on PS2 titles 24: The Game,...
One of them is PlayStation 4's Uncharted, but what's the other? A sequel to The Last of Us? Druckmann isn't saying.
"I think if there was nothing but remakes [on PS4], that would be pretty sad for the console," Druckmann told EDGE. "Just like any system out there, any medium, it's going to be a mixture. We're working on this re-release, but at the same time we’re working on two other brand-new experiences.
"When Blu-ray came out, the first thing is you buy all these rereleases of movies that you've loved, and then you see Gravity and you can’t wait to see it on...
Hook it up to an Xbox One to use as an interactive map.
The app lets players keep an eye on their stats and features "rich intel about the history of the Titanfall universe", including info on characters, weapons, maps, modes and the game's controls.
Hook it up to the Xbox One version and you'll also gain access to an interactive map, letting players keep track of their teammates' locations from a mobile phone or tablet, view a live scoreboard and access "additional map information that cannot be accessed anywhere else, giving you an advantage in the game".
Considering the game's pace, though, I don't think taking your eye...
The real dark moments of this series, however, come when you find yourself doing something you can’t quite defend later down the line. I came close to this in a bell tower during Season One, but ‘In Harm’s Way’ finally saw me step over that moral event horizon. I’m both impressed and a little worried that it did.
If you’re familiar with either the comics or the TV show, there’s plenty of comparisons to be made between ‘The Governor’ and Carver in this third episode. His encampment is a prison to those out of favour with its overlord, and he becomes very easy to...
Developing looking to innovate entire gaming 'ecosystem' rather than simply expand Halo universe.
"Getting the Halo 5: Guardians announce out of the way is a big weight off our shoulders," franchise development director Frank O'Connor wrote on Halo Waypoint following this morning's reveal. "This audience has correctly stated and assumed that you can't necessarily squish a full Halo game into anything less than a three year development schedule – and at least up to and including Halo 5: Guardians, that's more or less true.
"But we're not just making a new game in that three year span, we're also making a new engine. During the development of Halo 4, we pushed the Xbox...
Killzone: Shadow Fall Intercept to roll out as premium DLC next month and as a standalone product later this year.
Titled 'Intercept', the new mode will let you and up to three other players step into the boots of elite VSA team Intelligence Squad Alpha and sent on a mission to intercept and relay military transmissions made by the Helghast.
The mode comes loaded with four maps inspired by environments from Shadow Fall's single-player campaign and will be available for free to Season Pass holders. An individual price has yet to be announced.
Intercept will also be available as a standalone product on PS4 "later this year". To check out the first screens, head through here.
Over 1 million trees featured in impressive-looking DriveClub gameplay.
Evolution Studios has released brand new 1080p footage of PS4 racer DriveClub, showing off a race around the forests of Canada in the Pagani Huayra.
The footage appears to show a significant visual upgrade over earlier gameplay videos, showing off the game's impressive lighting and draw distance.
And don't even bother trying to count the number of trees. According to the game's product manager, "there are over 1 million" trees featured in that footage. Check it out above.
DriveClub launches exclusively on PS4 on October 10. Expect more on the game soon.
EA has released the first teaser footage of Battlefield 4's two remaining expansion packs, Dragon's Teeth and Final Stand.
Snippets of the DLC are featured in a new trailer for Battlefield 4: Premium, a Season Pass of sorts that offers access to every expansion pack and additional content.
Both Dragon's Teeth and Final Stand are set to include a range of new maps themed around specific locations. However, the most exciting addition revealed in today's footage is of a new weapon included in Final Stand, which appears to be a speedy minigun drone capable of firing...
Xbox One dev teases external HDD support, due "soon".
The developer posted an image (pictured above) of the functionality on Reddit along with the caption: "Adding more hype on the list of things to come".
"I give you this," they said. "Soon..."
Users taking part in the Xbox One preview programme have already received a taster of what to expect from future Xbox One updates, which is reported to include fixes to Party Chat and a new way to manually check for system updates.
Microsoft has yet to formally detail functionality included in future updates but has previously said that it is working on introducing...
Master Chief blasts onto next-gen in all new Halo game next year.
In development at 343 Industries, Halo 5: Guardians is described as a "bigger effort" than Halo 4, built on a "new and more powerful engine" that will allow it to run at 60fps "with the scope, features and scale we've been dreaming of for more than a decade".
"Certainly there are some core elements carried over from prior games, but we’ve invested a huge effort in retooling our tech to take full advantage of the Xbox One’s hardware and ecosystem to create worlds and experiences worthy of next-gen," says 343's Bonnie Ross.
"Clearly we want to have every year between three, four, five major brands that we are able to release," Martinez explained during the publisher's investor call last night. "This year we're coming with four. Clearly Assassin's Creed is on the yearly rhythm. We'll see whether we are capable of keeping it but that's what we are working on."
Ubisoft has released a major new Assassin's Creed title each year since 2009's Assassin's Creed 2. Two Assassin's Creed titles are expected to be released this year, including next-gen/PC exclusive Assassin's Creed Unity and rumoured title...
While Sony has yet to reveal how many PS4 consoles were sold during the month, Microsoft confirmed that Xbox One managed to shift 115,000 units in April, “outpacing Xbox 360 sales by 76 percent in the first six months on the market”.
71,000 Xbox 360 consoles were also sold in the US last month.
Despite PS4's success, though, Xbox One shooter Titanfall was April's top-selling game, no doubt helped by the Xbox 360 and PC releases, followed by Call of Duty: Ghosts and NBA 2K14. Recent PS4 exclusive InFamous: Second Son does not appear in the top 10, however.
Discussing the franchise's future during a call with investors last night, Guillemot said: "We have not disclosed our plan yet for the Xbox 360 and PS3 SKUs [of Assassin's Creed]. However, we have made it clear that as a company we expect to continue supporting both consoles for the foreseeable future."
Guillemot's comments follow earlier rumours suggesting that Ubisoft intends to launch a separate Assassin's Creed title on last-gen consoles, expected to be called Assassin's Creed Comet.
Rumours state that Comet could be set in North America similar to Assassins' Creed...
And the most pre-ordered new IP in Ubisoft history.
"We are seeing tremendous excitement for the new Watch Dogs game," said Michael van den Berg, vice president of merchandising at GameStop International. "In fact, Watch Dogs is the highest pre-ordered next-generation console game to date. It is on track to be one of the top selling video games across all consoles in 2014."
Ubisoft added that Watch Dogs is the most pre-ordered new IP in its history and "the most pre-ordered new IP in the entire industry this year". The publisher expects the game to sell over 6.3 million copies, outselling the original Assassin's Creed.
Highly-anticipated shooter absent from Ubisoft's major FY15 slate.
"Working on The Division is a once in a lifetime opportunity for all of us at Massive, Reflections, and Red Storm Entertainment," said Ubisoft. "We are creating something we are really proud of and we don't want to compromise on quality. We are going to release the game when it's ready.
"We want to thank you again for the exceptional ongoing support. Community is at the heart of what we are doing and we're very much designing the game with you in mind, so your involvement means a lot to us.
"The production is getting stronger every day and we can't wait to show you...
Developed by Ubisoft Montreal in association with Ubisoft Red Storm, Ubisoft Toronto, Ubisoft Shanghai and Ubisoft Kiev, Far Cry 4 takes players to Kyrat, "a breathtaking, perilous and wild region of the Himalayas struggling under the regime of a despotic self-appointed king."
Players will get to use a vast array of weapons, vehicles and - yes - animals, to "write their own story across an exotic open-world landscape".
"Following the success of Far Cry 3, we wanted to take the franchise to the next level and create a game that will surprise players and exceed fans'...
Hailing from a time when CD-ROMs were still thought of as mysterious artifacts from the future, can Tesla Effect deliver a palatable experience in 2014, or should FMV games remain a long forgotten mis-step? Jim took to Steam to find out.
