PlayStation brings Stiller, LeBron and Travolta together in epic God of War Ragnarok content

With a week away from the highly anticipated release of God of War Ragnarök, Kratos and Atreus continue their journey through the Norse realms, whilst building a stronger bond together as father and son. This inspiring journey poses the question: can all parents relate to the relationship challenges facing Kratos and Atreus?

PlayStation was able to find a few parents who relate all too well with how tough parenting can be. Bonded by the reality that no parent gets it right all of the time, these three star-studded families show that we can all relate to the dynamic relationship between Kratos and Atreus – especially when you wear the costume.

Check out the clip here.

Let’s find out a little more about how each father found paternal inspiration in God of War Ragnarök.

Ben Stiller: Putting on the Kratos beard and makeup felt very empowering. The war paint really is useful in terms of letting people know you mean business. I found the beard made me feel wiser… though [my son] Quin didn’t seem to feel that at all.

LeBron James: Something about having the Leviathan Axe in your hand transports you to a different world. We all play the games on the screen, but being able to bring those moments to life and connect in a different way is a pretty cool thing. 

John Travolta: Similar to Kratos and Atreus, the balance of ‘holding on and letting go’ is dynamic many parents can relate to. There’s no better feeling than seeing your child grow and mature into the best versions of themselves.

Experience Kratos’ parenting skills in action when God of War Ragnarök arrives on PS5 and PS4 on Wednesday, 9 November.

Sackboy A Big Adventure Review

Sackboy A Big Adventure

Developer: Sumo Digital
Publisher: Playstation PC
Platforms: PlayStation 4PlayStation 5PC (Reviewed)
Release Date: 27 Oct 2022
Price: 109.95 AUD – Available Here $59.99 USD – Available Here

Overview

At this point, if anyone asks me who is my favorite game publisher for PC, I’ll just say Sony. I’m not entirely sure why is there such a sudden focus on PC from one of the biggest console names but frankly, I don’t even care. Is it because of the chip shortage for console manufacturing, did they finally figure out that releasing former exclusives is basically free money for them? It doesn’t matter, all I know is that I’m really enjoying this and if anyone from Sony is reading this: don’t stop, just keep them coming.

Anyway, today we have another one of those former exclusives and while it might not be an acclaimed name like Marvel’s Spider-Man or The Last of Us, it’s still worth checking it out. So let’s dig in.

Story

The dastardly Vex (a near-mythical being born of chaos and fear, no less) kidnaps Sackboy’s friends and forces them to build his Topsy Turver. This most deadly diabolical device will transform Craftworld from a fantastical land of pure imagination and innocent dreams… into a torrid, barren eyesore of nightmares. But legend tells of a prophecy from deep within the ancient order of the Knitted Knights, Craftworld’s legendary protectors. And you just happen to be one of them. A fabled knight made entirely out of knitted wool (you don’t see that every day). So go on, grab a friend even and wander around all over Craftworld collecting costume pieces, and finding secret areas and you might even make it to the end to defeat Vex.

Gameplay

At the core of it, Sackboy A Big Adventure is a pretty simple platformer. You have to get to the end of the level while trying to collect as many dreamer orbs, knight’s energy, and regular orbs. Now let’s get through all that terminology. Dreamer orbs are blue glowing spheres, and usually, you will find either three or five of them in a level. You need a certain amount of dreamer orbs to complete each world, so it is recommended that you grab as many as you can. They are often in hidden areas or behind mini puzzles. Knight’s energy is super rare collectibles, there are only 15 of them in the game. Whenever you acquire one, you unlock one level of Knitted Knight Trials, the game’s time trial mode. Completely optional content, so it’s up to you if you want to have a go at it or skip it.

And as for the regular orbs, they’re….just that. These small transparent round orbs are found on every level and they are responsible for the score and rating you get at the end of every level (bronze, silver, or gold). Defeating enemies will also boost your score, and dying will lower it. Grabbing every orb in a level is not necessary (and often not possible), but the more the better.

When it comes to the game, it is the definition of “what you see is what you get” in almost every aspect of it. You won’t need more than 15 minutes of play to understand everything that’s thrown at you. Enemy variety is not high and most of their attacks are telegraphed. You have more chance of dying by miscalculating your jumps and falling rather than dying from enemies. The rare moments when the game gets only slightly challenging is during boss fights, but understand that there is one world boss after every 10-12 levels and they’re usually the last hurdle before unlocking a new area.

Visuals

Sackboy A Big Adventure was initially released for PS4 but only when it came to PS5 and PC it got a fresh new coat of paint. Since this is about a PC release, let me tell you what you all get. 4K resolution support, raytracing, 21:9 ultra-widescreen setup, and a good number of accessibility options. The game is really well optimized and there is hardly any difference in resources when I switched it from low to high settings. The level design seems pretty straightforward and it is incredibly hard to get lost, but at the same time secret areas are incredibly well hidden (especially in later worlds) so it is a good idea to hug level boundaries every now and then, especially if you want to find all of the dreamer orbs.

Audio

Playing through Sackboy A Big Adventure made me realize something. I can’t remember the last time I played something that had “everyday music”. I’m talking about these high-profile licensed songs. It is especially surprising when that music is weirdly implemented in the actual gameplay. Like going through a level with dancing flowers and cannons while they’re grooving to the tunes of Uptown Funk by Mark Ronson. And then hearing Chemical Brothers a couple of levels later. Not to mention also having Kool & The Gang, David Bowie, Britney Spears, Beats Antique, Anamanaguchi, and so on. Really engaging and eclectic soundtrack and saying that it elevates the overall gameplay to new heights would be an understatement, if anything.

Overall

Sackboy A Big Adventure leaves a lot to be desired when it comes to difficulty, but it exceeds on every other front. The soundtrack, the endearing visuals, and even the enemies radiate cuteness. And I haven’t even mentioned the main selling point so far. The co-op. The game has a level or two in each world that can only be completed by playing with someone but I say, why stop there? Go all the way. Co-op in this game will often produce hilarious results and engage you in competition with each other (the game supports max 4 players). Who will get the most orbs and who will be the biggest jerk in the end by throwing others into pitfalls? In the end, it is a really accessible title where almost anyone will find some aspect of the game that resonates with them.

FULL METAL JACKET FOR GUNGRAVE G.O.R.E

New Skin – BRANDON HEAT – Gives Grave New Moves, Abilities and Look

Sydney, Australia – November 1st, 2022: Gungrave G.O.R.E – the stylish third-person action shooter by South-Korean Studio IGGYMOB – will have an entirely new in-game skin- called Brandon Heat – changing all of Grave’s moves, abilities and design.

This pack will be available to all players, once they complete one simple task: beating the game on the highest difficulty (G.O.R.E).

As the titular Gunslinger of Resurrection, you become the badass anti-hero of your dreams, an ultimate killing machine, brutalising your foes without mercy. Taking cover and retreating is not an option for Grave, he only ever goes full steam ahead, preferably right through his enemies.

Brandon Heat was Grave’s human form, when he was one of the top assassins of the Mafia organisation Millenion. Fifteen years after his death he was revived as Beyond the Grave (shortened down to Grave) and was resurrected – using advanced necrolization technology – and went to seek revenge on the man who killed him: his former best friend and Millenion associate Harry MacDowell.

But MacDowell didn’t just kill Brandon; he also killed Grave’s former boss – and father figure – Big Daddy in a takeover of Millenion. Daddy’s daughter – Mika – seeks Grave’s protection, essentially becoming his adopted daughter.

Grave then has to fight his way through a city overrun by drugs, thugs and mutated soldiers – called Orgmen – in the hunt for revenge.

Gungrave G.O.R.E will be blasting into stores on 22 November 2022 on PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series S|X and PC.

Explore the scenic French coastal village of Saint-Exil, where Elise and her fiance Pierre recently moved, never expecting the conundrums that await. Discover why everyone in town has vanished and how this once cozy settlement became so sinister. Search for Elise’s missing fiance and uncover the dark history of this once picturesque village.

Encounter obstacles only felled by Elise’s newfound ability to temporarily control the weather. Collect cassette tapes providing insight into the community’s sordid past, a cryptic cult lurking in its underbelly, as well as the only tracks of music filling the deafening silence of frozen time.

Experience a sense of isolation and solitude with an incredibly personal depiction. Along with the lack of background music, cinematics in and out of gameplay were created with hand-held cameras to drive home the sense of isolation. All aspects of game design highlight the fact that Elise is the only human within Saint-Exil.

Evil West Releases New Gameplay Overview Trailer for the Vampire-Hunting Action-Adventure Game, Launching November 22

PARIS Oct. 31, 2022 Evil West, the third-person action-adventure game that puts you in the boots of a vampire hunter rescuing a Wild West devoured by darkness, invites you to take an introductory ride through its action-packed, narrative-driven experience in a new gameplay overview trailer. Prepare for the vampire-infested American frontier, releasing on November 22 for PlayStation®5, PlayStation®4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One and PC.

Get to know Jesse Rentier, the skilled, young vampire slayer you’ll incarnate in Evil West. Star agent of the Rentier Institute, a secret monster-hunting organization led by his father and many generations of Rentier before him, he’ll have to take the action into his own hands after a deadly vampiric conspiracy emerges from the darkness and wipes out the Institute. With the help of Edgar Gravenor, another survivor from the Institute, he’ll have to battle fierce foes and demystify the conspiracy while rebuilding the organization and becoming the leader it needs.

To reach his goal, Jesse will explore every corner of the Wild West, looking for new Institute members and valuable leads on the conspiracy, taking money from abandoned chests and corpses, and growing his arsenal of weapons. Armed with both old-fashioned firearms and advanced technology like the lightning-fueled Rentier Gauntlet, each with its own skill tree for customized upgrades, you’re free to combine Jesse’s weapons and tools to your liking. Take on explosive combat encounters with your own mix of powerful ranged attacks and devastating melee combos.

Get your hands on the ultra-limited Evil West – Signature Edition, a Focus Entertainment Store-exclusive product with only 50 copies available worldwide. It includes a numbered, laminated wooden frame printed with an exclusive artwork by artist Gabz, a physical copy of the game with the Focus-exclusive box art, and the “Wild Wild East Skin Pack” DLC.

Evil West pre-orders are open across all platforms and on the Focus Entertainment Store with an exclusive cover art for physical editions.
