    It’s that time of year again! Whether you’re finishing up last-minute holiday shopping, booking a trip back home, prioritizing your gaming catch-up plans, or just taking it easy until 2016, there’s one thing we can all come together for: Game of the Year voting! We’re lucky enough to live in a world where every year is pretty darned good for gamers, but 2015 was a year where PlayStation 4 really started to hit its stride. We started 2015’s list of GotY nominees nice ‘n early with FromSoftware’s Bloodborne, but things have stayed steady throughout the year. A few quick housekeeping notes before we dive in: Nominees are limited to games that have never appeared on a PlayStation platform before. Additionally, if a game has won for a specific category in a previous year, it’s no longer eligible to win in that category this year. We tried to include a (very) wide range of nominees for each category, but if your favorite isn’t on the list feel free to write it in at the bottom of each form. We’re keeping the polls open until the end of 2015 to give folks time to catch up on any games they might still have in their backlog (I’m looking at you, Geralt). Once the polls close at 11:59pm Pacific on December 31st, we’ll start tallying ’em up, with the big Winners post following in early January. But enough stalling — let’s vote!

    Hey there, dood! It’s been a bit since I’ve been around these parts, but I’m here to introduce you to an awesome RPG on PS Vita from Japan — Stranger of Sword City — which you’ll be able to dive into on March 22nd, 2016! I even managed to snag some screenshots from our current development build of the game. After surviving a mysterious plane crash, you wake to an unfamiliar land lit by stars you’ve never seen. This land is Escario, the city of swords. Quickly marked as the Chosen One, the Stranger of Sword City, you must defend this place and choose your allegiances carefully as you scour the land for a way home. And that’s how your adventure begins. Stranger of Sword City, at its core, is a game about death and the struggle to avoid vanishing forever. Like previous Experience, Inc. titles, you’ll be able to customize your team through a ton of character creation options — everything from their age (which affects how many times they can die before vanishing, and how many stat points they get to allocate) to the RPG mainstays of race (Migmy FTW!), talent, class, and more. Experience, Inc. has changed up the dungeon crawler formula a bit by incorporating a few cool systems that are sure to keep you elbow-deep in the dungeons of this harrowing Japanese dark fantasy title. Decisions to be MadeThe choices you make in Stranger of Sword City will affect how you play, as allying yourself with different factions will unlock different skills and benefits for your party members. You’ll have to carefully consider if you’ll be throwing your support behind the mysterious Strangers Guild, gambling on the shifty Medell Co. to help you out, or running the straight and narrow with the city’s defenders in the Kingdom. Each step of the way on your journey will offer risk and reward as you build rapport with each group in order to maximize your chances of surviving and finding your way home. Then, Out of Nowhere!Speaking of risk and reward, Stranger of Sword City features a unique Ambush system that will put your life on the line to earn the greatest loot. As the name implies, this system lets you observe your enemies before jumping into battle when the perfect opportunity presents itself. Using the Ambush system, you’ll have a chance to encounter unique enemies, and get a helpful glimpse at the loot they’re transporting! Careful though, you’ll be vulnerable to enemy ambushes as well if you wait too long in search of the best gear. You Want a Challenge?Ever told your brother how awesome the team you built in your game was, only to have him try to one-up you with how fast he cleared the game? No? Hm, well, I certainly have and I hate my brother thinking he’s better than me, so I’m super pumped for the leaderboard system that Experience has added! It lets you rank and compare yourself against other players across more than 40 categories, including everything from level clear time to party and item strength. So you’ll want to take advantage of that Ambush system if you want to reach the top of the charts. You’ll be able to explore all the features of Stranger of Sword City when it launches digitally and at retail on March 22nd, 2016. Until then, join us on our Twitch channel next Tuesday, Dec 22nd at 5:30 PM Pacific for the first live look at the English version of the game, or swing by the game’s official website to learn more right now!

    Locked, loaded, and engines firing. The lights are green and we’re good to go. Hardware: Rivals is coming exclusively to PS4 on January 5th, 2016 for $19.99 — and we’ve got some new updates to share with you today. For those of you new to the game, Hardware: Rivals is an explosive, over-the-top, vehicle combat game where you pit yourself against other drivers in heavy tanks or fast attack vehicles. Battle online through multiple maps, game modes, challenges, and special events. As you take down your enemies, you will collect bounties for hunting your biggest rivals. You can play as a lone wolf or as part of a team. We’ve been busy tweaking the game based on your feedback from October’s Beta trial, and also putting the finishing touches on a ton of new stuff. We’ve added another map, Outpost 92 — a frozen, deep core mining facility drowning in snow and ice, cut off in the face of an onrushing blizzard. It’s the ideal place to try out our new vehicles: the Sledgehammer (Tank) and Nomad (FAV). They’ll be lining up alongside the Predator and Wraith, ready for you to unleash devastation. All four vehicles can acquire a whole load of skins and add-ons that you can use to customize the look of your vehicle. Whether you want to trick out your Hardware with a bunch of military gear, or just put a hula-skirt on your tank, there’s something for everyone. You can also upgrade the handling and weapons systems of each vehicle, catering for whatever engagement style suits you best. There’s more game content coming very soon after launch, including new maps, vehicles, and game modes that we’ll be patching in as quickly as we can. We’ll also be publishing unique community events each week, mixing up modes, weapons and rewards, so keep an eye on the PlayStation community forums for more updates and previews from the dev team. We also put together a community Q&A based on some popular questions we received from our fans. Stay tuned for more. We appreciate the feedback and excitement we’ve received for Hardware: Rivals, and can’t wait for launch day to arrive. Keep the comments coming — we’re always listening. View the full article

    Lance from Versus Evil here to share some great news about The Banner Saga! It’s officially launching for PS4 on January 12th, 2016. John Watson has been working on bringing the game to consoles for quite a while. The process involved not only getting Banner Saga playable on consoles, but redesigning the user experience to better fit PS4 and DualShock 4. John and Mark Cooke spent quite a while narrowing down the specific user experience and ensuring that the Banner Saga experience was true to form while holding a controller in hand. We’re all happy with the work that went into the PS4 version of The Banner Saga and we’re eager for all of you to start your own saga. The Banner Saga has you live through an epic role-playing Viking saga where your strategic choices directly affect your personal journey. Make allies as you travel with your caravan across this stunning yet harsh landscape. Carefully choose those who will help fight a new threat that jeopardizes an entire civilization. Every decision you make in travel, conversation, and combat has a meaningful effect on the outcome as your story unfolds. Not everyone will survive, but they will be remembered. The art of The Banner Saga stands out and grabs the attention of people wherever we take the game. Arnie Jorgensen was heavily inspired by the American master Eyvind Earle for the art in The Banner Saga, but a lesser known inspiration came from the children’s books by Ingri and Edgar Parin D’Aulaire, both Leif the Lucky and Book of Norse Myths. We’re also pleased to announce that the game is localized in French, German, Polish, Portuguese, Russian, Spanish, and Italian languages. We’re eager for people to experience this epic Viking tale around the world, and we can’t wait for you to begin your saga on January 12th, 2016. Thanks again for all of your support and a huge thank you to Sony for being so great to work with! We’re looking forward to Banner Saga 2 and we’ll be sharing more information about that very soon. Be sure to keep your saved games from The Banner Saga as you’ll be able to import your saved data and continue your exact caravan, character, and story choices straight into Banner Saga 2. Do you have any questions? Let me know in the comments below and I’ll do my best to get them answered! View the full article

    Hey everyone! Kai from Frozenbyte here with some great news. We’ve managed to hit the Christmas launch window with Trine 3: The Artifacts of Power, and it’ll be available digitally for PS4 on December 22nd! The third game of the series has been renewed quite a lot and as you may have heard, Trine 3: The Artifacts of Power has full 3D gameplay. Trine 3: The Artifacts of Power is a 3D platforming game set in a beautiful fantasy world of vivid colors, and is also a mixture of puzzles, adventure, and action. You’re playing with three distinct characters: a Wizard specialized in conjuring boxes and levitation, a stout-hearted Knight with powerful fighting abilities, and an elusive Thief who excels at fighting from afar with her bow and overcoming obstacles with her grappling hook. Each character will help you in different ways on your and action-packed journey. The story starts off with the Heroes growing tired of their duties. They try to return their extraordinary gifts to the Artifact called Trine, and so they meddle with powers beyond their understanding: Trine shatters and a heartless ancient sorcerer escapes. With only a broken artifact to guide them, the heroes must try and repair the damage they’ve caused… or the damage that might yet be done. Trine 3 has 28 Trophies including a Platinum, so you’ll have a good bit of challenge trying to complete them all. We know there’s still a number of 3D TV owners out there, so we’ve continued to support stereoscopic 3D with Trine 3: The Artifacts of Power. And if you haven’t tried any of the Trine games in stereo 3D yet, now’s a good time to start. Trine 3 includes… A beautiful 3D fantasy world with seven story-driven chapters and 11 puzzle-solving, skill-focused Lost Pages. Three playable characters: Pontius the Knight, Zoya the Thief, and Amadeus the Wizard, each with his or her own skills and unique abilities. Share a couch! Local co-op multiplayer support for up to three players. Full HD 1080p with 60 frames per second. Support for Stereoscopic 3D (720p). Mesmerizing soundtrack by award-winning composer Ari Pulkkinen. Full language support for English, French, German, Spanish, Russian, Japanese, and Brazilian-Portuguese, and subtitle support for Italian, Danish, Norwegian, Swedish, Simplified Chinese, and Finnish. One thing that I’d like to be upfront about is that Trine 3 focuses on local co-op and will not include online multiplayer. We hope that you’ll still enjoy playing couch co-op! View the full article

    Earlier this year, we announced a partnership that made PlayStation the best place to play Call of Duty. Just last month, Call of Duty: Black Ops III launched on PS4 and broke several PlayStation launch records. I’m proud to announce that we are bringing together the number one console in the world with Call of Duty: Black Ops III in a brand new Call of Duty: Black Ops III Standard Edition PS4 Bundle, available for $349.99 (MSRP). This bundle features a 500GB PS4 system and DualShock 4 wireless controller in Jet Black, as well as a copy of Call of Duty: Black Ops III. With the first DLC map pack, Awakening, making its way to PlayStation 4 in early 2016 (a full 30 days before you can play it anywhere else), now is the perfect time to jump into Call of Duty: Black Ops III on PS4. We’re pretty sure this bundle will look pretty good under the tree – unless, of course, you want to play it first. PlayStation is truly the best place to play. This is yet another great bundle option to join the PlayStation 4 community. Happy holidays and I hope to see you all online this holiday season! View the full article

    Hi everyone, this is Dan again — Community Manager on Unravel. I’m here with two things that I know people looking forward to Unravel are excited for. First, I’m happy to confirm that Unravel is launching on February 9th, 2016. It’s still a few months away, but it’ll be worth the wait. Unravel is a physics-based puzzle platformer where you play as Yarny, a tiny new character made from a single thread of yarn that slowly unravels as you move. You have to traverse nature’s obstacles inspired by the breath-taking environments of Northern Scandinavia. Unravel will be available on PS4, and we’re really looking forward to telling you more about the game in the near future. You can find out more information on the Unravel website.

    Hey PlayStation fans. I’m Jason Koohi from Team Zanrai. We’re a very small team comprised of myself for direction, art, and sound and our programming guru, Simon Inch. We’re behind the retro-inspired, local-multiplayer battling game known as Stardust Vanguards — and today we’re very excited to announce that we’re bringing it to PS4 on January 19th, 2016! Stardust Vanguards at it’s core is a swansong to competitive, free-for-all multiplayer. Two to four players will take on the roles as valiant military leaders as they equip themselves in giant robots armed with only an energy sword and an auto-targeting machine gun (with very limited ammo). You can dash right into a fight or play defensively as you use your blade to reflect bullets back at your enemies and slice through your friends. Arcade action is the name of the game as you’re rewarded for skillful attacking and precision dodging as you weave through bullets. You’ll die in only one hit so every move counts. The twist on this formula is that we’ve added a reinforcement system. For every enemy you take out, you’ll earn RP (reinforcement points) which you can then use to summon allied NPC squadrons to help you out in the battle. You’ll even earn RP every second just for staying alive. The more RP you earn, the bigger and badder your summoned allies will become. We proudly developed the game with high-precision, responsive arcade combat, but the game can become deceptively strategic in higher levels of play since you’ll have to decide when to backup your forces or to let them do the fighting for you. The biggest battles can get pretty huge, with nearly 100 computer-controlled units duking it out at the same time. While it might look intimidating to see all the bullets and explosions on screen, you can always retreat behind your allies to take a breather, so it’s important to rely on your troops once in a while, especially when the going gets tough. We also developed a random event system to keep each battle unique to force the players to adapt to the ever changing conditions on the battlefield. We’ve designed dozens of scenarios where an entirely separate faction of computer-controlled space pirates will attempt to launch surprise attacks on the players. These scenarios range from a number of different attack strategies, like simple line assaults to pincer attacks. We also included scenarios like passing transport convoys to give players an opportunity to restock their ammunition as well as missiles barrages and super tough capital-ship blitzkriegs. It’s in these moments that you’ll need to decide whether or not to briefly cooperate with other players to take down the pirates — or if you’ll use the chaos to your own advantage and stab a few rivals in the back. Still, you’ll need to kill off the pirates one way or another because they can (and will) win the battle just like the players. It truly adds a new dimension to combat because it seamlessly shifts defense of your individual faction to the defense of the entire group. As the saying goes, “the enemy of my enemy is my friend.†We’ve had some great times during testing where even though we were in a free-for-all, we collectively wanted to defeat the pirates as a make-shift team of sorts. We’re very happy Stardust Vanguards has found a home on PlayStation. This is a game tailor built for fans of couch-multiplayer and PS4 is perfectly suited for it. I’m always on Twitter, so feel free to drop us a line and I hope we’ll see you on the battlefield! View the full article

    Just think – one week ago today we were getting ready to delve into our second PlayStation Experience in San Francisco! For all of you who attended or watched live online, thank you! It’s an honor and pleasure to share so many incredible games with the people that appreciate them the most: PlayStation fans. A few of my favorite moments: seeing that Uncharted 4 story trailer on the keynote stage, watching the first ever gameplay from Final Fantasy VII Remake, and watching fans scour Moscone West to unearth collectible cards. As a small memento, the PlayStation video team put together a little something to say “thank you.†Enjoy, and have a great weekend! View the full article

    Hey folks! I’m back to talk about one last, very exciting TowerFall announcement: on December 15th we’re launching the long-awaited PS Vita and PS TV versions of TowerFall Ascension and the Dark World Expansion! We’re releasing these ports as cross buy titles, so if you own TowerFall or its DLC on PS4, you will automatically own it on PS Vita! If you’re new to the game, TowerFall Ascension will run you $14.99, and the Dark World DLC costs $9.99. We’re also planning to patch in cross save support shortly, which will let your save file transfer between the PS Vita and PS4 versions. PS Vita has undoubtedly become my favorite way to play TowerFall single player. But TowerFall is a local multiplayer game at its heart — designed for you to squeeze onto a couch with your friends to compete on the same screen. On PS Vita, you’ll use ad hoc wireless to fight your friends on other PS Vita systems in the same room. Playing on a handheld feels like a fresh experience, but the familiar joy of local multiplayer remains the same. When your friend impales you to the wall with an arrow and begins bragging loudly, it still stings just as bad. Don’t worry, you’ll get your revenge next round. Players on PS4 have always shown amazing enthusiasm for TowerFall, and I’m super excited to finally expand our community to PS Vita. TowerFall has been the focus of the last three years of my life, and it has been a wonderful three years. Thank you so much for all your support! As I begin production on my next game, one thing I know for sure is that I can’t wait to share it with all of you. View the full article

    A lone, buck-naked cosmonaut twirls freely through a cartoon universe. He is gravity-less… pants-less… his body exposed to the icy cold of the cosmos. His trusty laser blaster and accompanying space helmet keeping him alive for just a little longer. Seemingly drifting for eons, he sees a galaxy out of the corner of his eye and thrusts his jetpack towards what seems like a miniature cartoon planet hanging delicately on the edge of space. Landing on the planet, the space traveller can now run and jump with finesse. His task seems to be based in discovery, first by planting a flag and naming the planet with some ridiculo-sensical non-word, and then, more importantly, by attempting to bring life back to the planet… for reasons not truly understood. At its very roots, Cosmochoria is a game about discovery. I purposely designed Cosmochoria to feel like the type of game I would find in my Dad’s stash of old Atari 2600 games: a mysterious cartridge found in the bottom of a dusty old milk crate without a box or even instruction manual… Even the simple act of discovering the mechanics was something I deliberately obsessed over and tried to balance with just the right amount of feedback and information. I want you to know how to move, and what buttons to press to do what, but beyond that, the reason you’re standing there, naked on a strange cartoon planet in the middle of deep space is not immediately apparent. I was so moved by such a powerful experience playing Journey that I thought “What if I could somehow get that raw feeling of wonder and curiosity into what appears — on the surface — to be a simple arcade game?†Cosmochoria is the result of that thinking. It is a smorgasbord of game mechanics from free floating thrust-based space travel akin to classic space shooters like Asteroids, to run and jump mechanics reminiscent of Mario Bros or Donkey Kong. Amidst that madness are additional layers of building and planting systems that, when combined, bring a truly unique flavour to the universe of Cosmochoria. It’s my hope that Cosmochoria feels like nothing you’ve ever played before, and I deeply look forward to hearing about your experiences of the game when my good friends at Curve Digital bring it to your PS4 next year.

    Hi, this is Jakub from Grip Games and I’m back on PlayStation.Blog to show you our newest upcoming game — McDroid, which is coming to PS4 in early 2016 and combines action and tower defense genres. It’s developed by the super-creative team at Elefantopia. You’ll play as a cute little robot named — you guessed it — McDroid. He crash landed on an alien planet and has to defend against countless waves of enemies in order to slowly repair his ship and also heal the planet. McDroid has two major distinctive features: one is its unique look, which is very colorful and stylized, and the other is mixing tower defense with action gameplay. Starting with the latter, you will be able to build various weapons, like lasers, rocket launchers or tesla cannons, and place them as stationary turrets or carry them on your back and use them as traditional weapons. This lets you have automatic weapons to protect one part of the level, while you take more personal approach to bug eradication elsewhere. You’ll need to plant and harvest resources (And protect them!), you’ll find blueprints and discover new weapons and you’ll also get side-kicks as you play to help you cover more places at once. Visuals and the overall style of the game are also very important. The cute scenery can very quickly turn into a frantic blood-bath. While McDroid is approachable by all types of players, you can also expect a real challenge in the late levels as the hostile bugs will throw everything they have at you. But the game always keeps a quirky sense of humor and playfulness. We’ll be launching McDroid in early 2016 so the release date is actually just around the corner. I will be around the comments section, so feel free to post any questions you have! View the full article

    Today, we’re releasing update 1.07 for Sharefactory, which includes several highly requested features based on your feedback. One of the biggest features we’re proud to add is Time Bender, which enables players to add slow motion and time lapse effects to their Sharefactory videos. This has been the most popular feature request for Sharefactory — we can’t wait to see how you’ll use this in future videos. We’re also adding Sharefactory Events, which will be held by your favorite game developers and publishers. They’ll lay out specific video creation requirements and you get to show off your editing skills. And just a heads up, the first event is being planned now and we’ll have more details soon. Also, we’re expanding the number of clips you can to add your Sharefactory projects to 50, and the number of music track clips has been expanded to 12. Other additional features include: Layering for stickers and text (now referred to as overlays) 2 new music tracks 3 new filter effects 3 new wipe transitions and 5 new dissolve transitions New Color Picker. Text color is no longer constrained to a limited color palette Since launch, we’ve seen an explosive growth, with more than 5.1 million downloads of the Sharefactory app, and more than 18.9 million awesome projects created by our PlayStation Nation. Our community continues to grow and we are extremely grateful for the continued support, feedback, and — most importantly — the sharing of your creative videos to the world. We’re excited to see what you’ll come up with using these new features. Please continue to provide your feedback on Sharefactory — we’re always listening. Happy editing! View the full article

    It took a community to build Communities for PS4. Clan support on a console sounds easy enough to do, but consider… it’s never been done before, and maybe for good reasons. It’s big. It’s messy. It impacts everything. It’s not easy. That’s why building Communities for PS4 appealed to Khoi Do, a senior engineer on the PlayStation Network team. “I actually switched teams because of this feature,†says Do. “There were a lot of question marks. I was a little worried, but that made it fun.†Do leads the Gambit scrum development team at Sony Network Entertainment International (SNEI), the division behind the PS4 user interface and PSN. Gambit’s team covers PS4 social features, so Communities was destined to fall squarely on them. But there was no way they could do it alone. Communities, released in PS4 System Software 3.00, came out of a hackathon coding competition presentation by designer Dominic Graziano, together with engineers Daryl Nelson and Zack Argyle, and the idea was simple enough: make it quick and easy to connect and play with other people who share your interests. Looking for a party? Want to raid? A Community gives you a direct line to the players you need. Right there, you’re talking about tapping into the PSN Friends list, Party, What’s New, Who’s Playing, Messages, and Notifications — components overseen by multiple teams. All that still doesn’t get you to the front door in terms of data management or feature interface. “We worked with Tokyo for all the game-session information,†says Do. On the domestic side, Graziano started drawing up a UI while another scrum team, Cerebro, made the Community wall possible. Even with all those people already committed, it didn’t take long before Do realized delivering his Day 1 requirements depended on recruiting a third social-features team. “I knew about it from the hackathon,†says Nick Hunter, head of the Stark scrum team. “It’s always been a feature with big aspirations.†Now it depended on his availability. SNEI puts all its teams from around the world into one big room four times a year, and that’s where the next development cycle solidifies… after a certain amount of haggling, juggling, rearranging, and reality checks. Hunter went through all those stages, then made the call. Stark was in. “We need to get this out there,†he remembers thinking. “There’s a clear need, and there are so many benefits to having it on-platform, using real data about who’s on, who’s playing.†Stark took that on. Then engineers settled in to do what engineers love to do: solve problems. “We are an open-source shop,†says Do. “We do a lot of valuation of whether this technology fits this problem. Then you have to get it to work.†That meant leveraging cloud-hosted services to scale fast across availability zones, Cassandra database management to store and retrieve every post, message, invitation, and join, and Apache Tomcat open-source web server to deploy APIs. Meanwhile, the Stark team built shared components to bring all-important Now Playing and What’s New features in line with Communities’ needs. When complications came up, Do and Hunter made the 30-foot walk to each other’s desk to get it sorted out. But they couldn’t depend on existing systems for everything. Customization, in the form of images and wallpaper, was one of the bigger asks. That tool had to be built, and the data pull had to be practical. “This is the first time we’ve hosted user-image uploads on this scale,†says Do. They quickly latched on to edge-based content delivery networks to store all those images and uploads “closer†to the Community itself. That knocked latency issues down from an expensive fetch to the blink of an eye. All told, “We spun up five new services for Communities,†says Do. Then everyone sat back, had a beer, and watched it go live at midnight with a code push, wondering if anyone would notice. Since communities launched, millions of PlayStation players have joined at least 400,000 communities. “You hope that your features get to that level of engagement,†says Hunter. “It was awesome.†And it’s not done yet. Now that Communities is live, the Gambit team is going right back into planning for Day 2 features. The team is listening to user feedback and considering a number of features including search. “The size of my Friends list has grown,†he says. “I’m meeting more people. I’m using the platform more. It was fun to develop, and it’s fun to use.†Now he wants to make it even better… with a little help from his friends. View the full article
