Uncharted 4 and Lost Legacy Being Remastered for PC and PS5

Uncharted 4 and Uncharted: Lost Legacy are being remastered, with a PS5 version in the works from Naughty Dog and a PC version coming "shortly after" from Iron Galaxy.

Revealed at today's PlayStation Showcase event, Uncharted: Legacy of Thieves Collection will feature enhanced versions of both of the Naughty Dog adventures release for PS4. You can see some of the screenshots from the next-gen remaster just below.

Uncharted 4 was first released back in 2016, which we awarded a 9/10 in our review. Uncharted: Lost Legacy, a side-story of sorts, was released the following year.

Sony has been investing more heavily in porting its exclusives to PC in the last year, and even bought Dutch studio Nixxes to assist with that move. Apparently, Epic previously offered $200 million to make that happen, but Sony seems to have gone in a different direction.

The Uncharted: Legacy of Thieves Collection will release in early 2022.

Insomniac Is Making Marvel’s Wolverine

In a surprise reveal at today's PlayStation Showcase, Spider-Man and Ratchet & Clank developer Insomniac Games revealed that it has a Wolverine game in development for PS5, seemingly titled simple Marvel's Wolverine.

The reveal was done via a very brief teaser trailer, in which we see Wolverine in a cowboy hat sitting at a bar as a large man advances on him from behind. As the man gets closer, Wolverine extends his claws, revealing his identity.

Aside from that, the PlayStation blog stated that Marvel's Wolverine is a "standalone game" and is being directed by Brian Horton and Cameron Christian, the latter of whom was a creative lead on Miles Morales. It's still "very early" in development, but one hint to its story offered by the blog compared it to Spider-Man, in that "Both heroes feel deeply compelled to defend people who are less able to do so."

That's it for now. Insomniac's been a busy place lately though, with the recent release of Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart, which we found to be a "stunner" and a "fantastic experience." We similarly loved Marvel's Spider-Man and Miles Morales, effectively solidifying Insomniac's superb track record with these kinds of games. It also just announced today that it's working on Marvel's Spider-Man 2, exclusive to PS5. Though we don't know what genre Wolverine will fall into, Insomniac has built some serious goodwill with Marvel titles already, so we'll be looking forward to seeing more of this as it gets closer to release.

Unfortunately, there's no release date or window forthcoming for Wolverine, and so far it seems like it might be a PlayStation exclusive, or even a PS5 exclusive, as the final title card stated it's "In Development for PlayStation 5."

Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodhunt Coming to PS5 This Year

Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodhunt is coming to PlayStation 5 later this year. Announced at today's PlayStation Showcase event, the free-to-play battle royale is coming before the end of 2021, but we don't have an exact date yet.

More details were announced on the PlayStation Blog, including that the game will aim to hit 60 fps, and it will, "make full use of the DualSense controller."

Bloodhunt is set in the World of Darkness universe. In Bloodhunt, players control vampires fighting off hunters by using supernatural powers. The game is out now in early access on Steam. Bloodhunt is the debut game from UK and Sweden-based developer Sharkmob. It was originally revealed in late 2020.

Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy Gets Another Sassy New Trailer Ahead of Launch

If you somehow haven't gotten enough of a taste of what Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy will have to offer when it launches next month, today's PlayStation Showcase delivered with yet another look at some of the humorous, snappy story moments coming up in the Guardians' adventure.

The new trailer opens with the Grand Unifier, who we've seen in previous trailers, giving a dark, ominous speech before Star-Lord feigns a heart attack to, one can only presume, distract or throw him off balance, while Gamora shakes her head in exasperation. And it all goes silly from there.

We also get a look at Cosmo, a dog with superpowers, intelligence, and the ability to telepathically communicate, who has a prior relationship with the Guardians. There are more looks at combat (both on foot and in space!) and hints at some big dramatic moments.

Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy is still geared up for release on October 26 on PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, PC, and Nintendo Switch via cloud, following its announcement earlier this year. We've already seen tons of the game so far, including a cinematic trailer centered around Grand Unifier Raker, and deep dives into changes to Star-Lord's backstory.

New Ghostwire: Tokyo Trailer Looks Trippy, But Still No Release Date

After going quiet for some time, Shinji Mikami's Ghostwire: Tokyo reappeared today, showing off new visuals from the upcoming supernatural thriller but otherwise offering little in the way of new info.

Shown at today's PlayStation Showcase event, you can see some of the images from the trailer below.

The Oni mask bleeding black blood is perfectly scary, at least.

Despite being made by a Bethesda studio, Ghostwire: Tokyo is one of the few games that will remain PS5 console exclusives despite an acquisition by Microsoft. Mikami's previously told us that it technically isn't a horror game, and it was delayed to early 2022 to protect the health of staff working on it.

Ghostwire: Tokyo is still expected to be released early next year.

GTA 5 Shows Off Its PS5 Upgrade, Delayed to March 2022

We've gotten our first look at Grand Theft Auto 5 as a PS5 game.

Seen in action at today's PlayStation Showcase event, the PS5 remaster of Grand Theft Auto 5 will see Michael, Franklin, and Trevor back on the streets of Los Santos, and looking better than ever. The new trailer also points to a March 2022 release date, a delay from the previously-announced November 11, 2021 date.

When it arrives with an upgrade for PS5 and Xbox Series X/S, it will mark the third generation of consoles GTA 5 has been released on. The upgrade applies to both the single player game, and GTA Online. Before that, we're also expecting to see surprises related to the 20th anniversary of GTA 3 on October 22.

Forspoken Shows Off New Gameplay, Will Be Released in Spring 2022

Mysterious Square Enix and Luminous Productions action-RPG Forspoken has shown off a little more of its world and gameplay in a new trailer, and revealed that the game will release in Spring 2022.

Revealed at today's PlayStation Showcase event, the new Forspoken trailer introduces us to lead character Frey as she enters the gorgeous (but dangerous) world of Athia.

According to a PlayStation blog post, "Frey is a directionless, gritty yet street smart young woman who has persevered despite her rough upbringing in New York City. And her life hasn’t really gotten any easier now that she’s about to turn 21. Things take a turn for the unexpected when she’s magically transported to Athia, a land where fantasies and nightmares are suddenly very real."

As Frey, who's voiced by Charlie's Angels star Ella Balinska, players will harness magical abilities to defeat monsters across the land, in addition to contending with the Tantas, the "destructive and twisted all-powerful matriarchs who have dominion over Athia."

In addition to Balinska, Forspoken will also feature the voices of Jonathan Cake as Frey's companion Cuff, Janina Gavankar as Tanta Sila, Keala Settle as Johedy, and Monica Barbaro as Auden.

Forspoken was announced as Project Athia in 2020, and was subsequently given a formal title in March. It's one Square Enix is hoping to make an impression with, its stated goal being to include the highest quality visuals in any open world game to date. Forspoken will also be a PS5 console exclusive for at least 2 years.

Borderlands Spin-Off Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands Is Coming Next March

Borderlands spin-off Tiny Tina's Wonderlands is releasing on March 25, 2022.

Announced with a new trailer at today's PlayStation Showcase event, the game will come to PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series S|X, and PC early next year.

We also saw our first look at gameplay, giving us a taste of how the Borderlands spin-off will look in action. We saw lots of guns, new fantasy-based moves, unique enemies, and more.

Wonderlands brings a fantasy-flavored twist to a Borderlands approach. First announced at E3 2021, we've so far had a breakdown of its weapons, loot, and enemies, but this marks our first taste of how it all fits together in the game itself.

Alan Wake Remastered Release Date Announced

After being announced earlier this week, Alan Wake Remastered was officially shown off in a trailer during today's PlayStation Showcase, with a release date set for October 5, 2021. It will include both the base the game and its two story expansions, The Signal and The Writer.

While revealed during a PlayStation show, it was previously confirmed that Alan Wake Remastered would come to PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, and PC through the Epic Games Store. In fact, the Epic Games Store is where rumors of a remaster were kicked off this June.

It was also confirmed today that the PS4 version will offer both a Performance and Quality mode, the latter of which runs at 60fps while the former runs at 4K and 40fps. Meanwhile, the PS5 version will run at 4K and 60fps.

This official date reveal comes days after leaked listings had already pointed toward an October 5 release, and a remaster is throwing more fuel on the speculative fire that Remedy is working on a full sequel.

Upcoming Hack-and-Slash Title Project Eve Looks Gorgeous

During today's PlayStation Showcase, you would have been forgiven for not recognizing the second game shown: Project Eve. It's an upcoming hack-and-slash action title that's largely flown under the radar up til now, but an extended trailer shown today gave a better look at its combat, story, and beautiful musical accompaniment.

Project Eve has been known about for a while now, having been announced way back in 2019 with a teaser from its developer, Korean studio Shift Up, which is founded by Blade & Soul character designer Kim Hyung Tae.

Its story follows a young woman existing in a post-apocalypse, at one point in the trailer learning about what a subway system used to be through a friendly voice in her ear. In a broken world that mankind has fled, Eve explores and fights off strange monsters called NA:tives who have invaded earth.

Via the PlayStation blog, we also learned that the PS5 version of this game will take advantage of haptic feedback for its combat combos, and intends to "take full advantage" of the PS5's graphical power.

Though shown in the PlayStation Showcase, Project Eve was also originally announced for Xbox One and PC, so we'll likely see it on those platforms eventually as well. Unfortunately, the trailer today did not give any new information about a release date or window, so we may have to wait a while before we learn more about what Project Eve is all about.
