We're back online. Today, <a href="http://us.playstation.com/ps4/games/watch-dogs-ps4.html?CMP=soc_us__gm_WatchDogs_ReleaseDateAnnounce_3_6_14" target="_new">Watch_Dogs</a> resumed communications with an all-new story trailer featuring our protagonist, Aiden Pearce, and our launch date! Over the last few months, our development team has been working non-stop to fully realize their ambition and polish the Watch_Dogs experience to live up to gamers' high expectations. We've been absolutely itching to show you more, and we're finally ready to do just that. More...

Hey everyone. Greg here from DrinkBox, where we've been locked away in our studio hiding from the harsh Canadian winter and dreaming of hot sun, sandy deserts, and bandanna-clad cacti. We're excited to finally announce we've been working on a new version of Guacamelee for PS4 -- the Super Turbo Championship Edition! If you haven't played Guacamelee before, we're talking about a Metroidvania, brawling platformer where you play as a Luchador that harnesses the powers of a legendary mask, two meaty fists, and an arsenal of wrestling moves to battle an evil army of the undead. But did you also know you can turn into a chicken? And nothing hinders the forces of darkness more than being pecked in the knee by angry poultry. More...

The core TowerFall experience demonstrates the richness of simplicity. With only three basic tenets of play -- movement, shooting, and dodging -- this multiplayer arena celebrates the thrill of pure competition. <a href="http://blog.us.playstation.com/tag/towerfall-ascension/" target="_blank">TowerFall Ascension</a>, coming to <a href="https://us.playstation.com/ps4/?CMP=soc_us__gm_PS4_PSBlog_3_4_14" target="_blank">PS4</a> on March 11th, retains this fine-tuned fun while also expanding on it. A heart-pounding, co-op Quest mode has joined the fray, alongside time-based Trials that help players master the art of shooting glorious, pixelated arrows. More...

Hello there! Mediatonic here, checking back in on Playstation.Blog after a long absence. Some of you may remember our PSN Minis. If you do, it's highly probable that we love you. If you don't, that's okay, too! We're thrilled to lift the curtain on our return to PlayStation platforms with Foul Play, coming to PS4 and PS Vita! In this encore performance, we're thrilled to announce a cross buy launch, hand-in-hand with some exciting new difficulties and optimization for each platform. More...

<a href="http://us.playstation.com/games/dark-souls-ii-ps3.html?CMP=soc_us__gm_DarkSoulsII_SurvivalGuide_3_5_14" target="_new">Dark Souls II</a> continues a long tradition of games that will challenge even the most veteran of gamers. You'll explore, experiment, and die many times throughout your quest. While it would be against From Software's design philosophy to give you a detailed map of the world and a full explanation of the game's story, we did want to give you a few pointers before you go beyond death come March 11th on PS3.

Time for a little update on how <a href="http://blog.us.playstation.com/tag/soma/" target="_blank">SOMA</a> is doing. (A brief summary for those who don't already know: SOMA is a sci-fi horror game from the creators of <a href="http://www.amnesiagame.com/#main" target="_blank">Amnesia: The Dark Descent</a> that will tackle unsettling questions about consciousness. It will be released on <a href="https://us.playstation.com/ps4/?CMP=soc_us__gm_PS4_PSBlog_3_4_14" target="_blank">PS4</a> in 2015.)

Our hope is to give you a taste of the feel and atmosphere that SOMA will have. It also contains a few clues on what the game's story will be about. More...

It’s truly humbling to see the rate at which gamers across the globe are choosing PS4 as their next gen console of choice. Even more exciting is what happens when gamers power up their PS4s. In the United States, more than 90% of PS4s are online, enabling gamers to connect, compete and share their greatness with friends and fellow gamers. More...

I think the best way to start off any new month is with two free PlayStation Plus games. For March we have Dead Nation: Apocalpyse Edition for your PlayStation 4 and Tomb Raider for your PlayStation 3. If you’re unfamiliar with the original Dead Nation, it’s a top-down twin-stick shooter that’s best experienced with a friend. Make sure you’ve got a strategy and plenty of items before you head out to take down hordes of zombies. The Apocalypse Edition was just <a href="http://blog.us.playstation.com/2014/02/27/dead-nation-apocalypse-edition-coming-to-ps4-march-4th/" target="_blank">announced last week</a>, will be hitting PlayStation Store tomorrow, and it has some interesting benefits like an interactive live streaming option.

Hi PlayStation.Blog readers! I'm Daniel Posner, reaching out to you from Toronto, Canada. My long-time friend, Rich Hilmer, and I recently co-founded a brand new indie game studio called Finish Line Games. Along with guru programmer friend Matt Robinson, Rich and I have been working on a passion project over the past few years, and we're super excited to announce the fruits of our labor: Cel Damage HD, a high definition re-release of the original, vehicular combat game that debuted back in 2001.

It's been a long time coming, but Update 12 is here! The <a href="http://us.playstation.com/ps4/games/warframe-ps4.html?CMP=soc_us__gm_Warframe_Update12_Post_3_3_14" target="_new">Warframe</a> team is extremely (dare I say <i>Digital Extremely</i>...*crickets*) excited to not only bring Update 12 to our existing PS4 players, but also to our newly added Warframe fans in Japan. They just got a taste on their Day 1 launch. This is another big update that includes a new Warframe, new weapons, a new game mode, and my personal favorite; a badass new HUD! More...

Just like last year’s Spring Fever promotion, over the next four weeks we are championing indie developers who are bringing new and exciting experiences to the PlayStation platforms and giving PS Plus members 20 % off each title during each game’s launch week. The Spring Fever lineup features titles from stellar indie developers and I think it is safe to say that this year’s lineup rivals (and maybe even surpasses) that of 2013. More...

People have been asking for a <a href="http://blog.us.playstation.com/category/ps3/" target="_blank">PS3</a> version of Fez since day one, and we believe it was worth the wait. Blit took the time to make a solid C++ port of the game, which runs smoothly at native resolution on <a href="http://blog.us.playstation.com/category/ps-vita/" target="_blank">PS Vita</a>, and 720p at 60 frames per second on PS3. The <a href="https://us.playstation.com/ps4/?CMP=soc_us__gm_PS4_PSBlog_3_3_14" target="_blank">PS4</a> version is what we consider to be the best-looking and smoothest Fez experience you can get on a TV set, running at beautiful 1080p (and yes, 60fps too). More...

For the most part, players can explore the world of Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn at their own leisure. But what would an MMO be without some group content? In this blog post, we'll introduce you to the numerous activities that can only be mastered in groups of four to 24. More...
