News Bethesda to Bring Prey 2, The Evil Within 2, and Wolfenstein 2 to E3 2016
2 much
Bethesda's press conference at E3 2015 seemed like a fancy way of announcing Fallout 4, so we were taken aback when it revealed that it would be repeating the song and dance this year. But apparently it's got plenty to show, with rumours swirling that in addition to a remastered version of The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, it's also going to...
Rumour The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Is Being Remastered for PS4

Sharpen up your Fus Ro Dah chops, because Bethesda is apparently remastering The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim for the PlayStation 4. The legendary role-playing game – which sold approximately a bajillion copies on last-gen platforms – will apparently ship with mods, all of the original's expansion packs, and improved...
Hands On Fallout 4: Far Harbor Removes Fog to Boost PS4 Framerate
There's always a catch
We're happy to report that Fallout 4 fans can rest easy for now – well, kind of. Fallout 4: Far Harbor, the game's first "real" expansion, ran very poorly on PlayStation 4 when it released. The add-on's island location was covered in thick fog, and this effect, combined with detailed lighting techniques, resulted in a...
News Europe, You Can Now Download the New Fallout 4 Far Harbor on PS4
Frame rate supposedly fixed
Is the saga finally over? One of the biggest stories of the last few weeks, Fallout 4: Far Harbor launched in extremely poor condition on PlayStation 4, with many players experiencing crippling frame rate issues when exploring the expansion's new island setting. In order to fix the problem, Bethesda has saw fit to...
News Fallout 4: Far Harbor Ran So Bad on PS4 that Bethesda's Actually Re-Released It
You can download the new version now in North America
Wait, what? Last week, Bethesda stated that it had sent a Fallout 4: Far Harbor update to Sony for approval. It was apparently going to fix the add-on's serious frame rate issues, but the supposed patch still isn't available to download on PlayStation 4. Quite the mystery. Except there may have...
News Expect a Fallout 4: Far Harbor Performance Improving Patch Next Week on PS4
See through the fog
We were kind of hoping that Bethesda would be able to get a patch out earlier in the week to address Fallout 4: Far Harbor's serious frame rate issues on PlayStation 4, but it sadly didn't arrive in time for the weekend. However, over on its official Twitter account, the developer has confirmed that a fix is incoming. "We've...

News Bethesda Actively Working on Improvements for Fallout 4: Far Harbor's Framerate
Fog of war
Our review of Fallout 4: Far Harbor went live this week, heavily criticising the add-on's performance on the PlayStation 4. Many argued that we should have given the expansive expansion a pass considering the quality of the content contained within, but we believe that critical framerate issues such as those encountered in this instance...
Review Fallout 4: Far Harbor (PS4)
Fogging hell
The fog of Far Harbor is to be feared. It inflicts radiation poisoning on those who dare to trek through it, it gives birth to horribly slimy creatures of the deep, and it does an admirable job of obscuring your view of the fiends that stalk the wilderness. The island's residents have a right to fear the mist: it keeps them penned...
Hands On Fallout 4: Far Harbor's Frame Rate Is Unacceptable on PS4
Come on, Bethesda
What a disappointment this turned out to be. Fallout 4 is easily the best performing title that Bethesda has ever released on a PlayStation platform, but its first big expansion, Far Harbor, is in a real state right now. We're just a few hours into the highly anticipated add-on, and we're honestly finding it difficult to keep...
Leviticus 26:7
It wasn't until Wolfenstein: The New Order that we noticed how homogeneous first-person shooters have become over the past decade. The genre's certainly made strides forward, but from a big picture perspective, we've spent the past decade or so taking cover and performing pot-shots to reach our objectives. However, MachineGames'...
News New Fallout 4: Far Harbor Trailer Will Get You Hyped for Tonight's Release

Video Should You Buy DOOM on PS4?
Hell's respawn
We've been to Hell and back – and all you're getting is this lousy DOOMvideo review. While reviewer Joey Thurmond is still busy thoroughly investigating every last crevice of the underworld, yours truly has returned from Hades with a tale to tell.

Hands On Dispatching Demons in DOOM on PS4
\m/
DOOM wastes no time setting out its stall. There a pentagram, a pistol, and one of Satan's soldiers. Pew, pew – off we go. Extremely late review copies mean that we've only just managed to get our hands on id Software's key card collecting sim – but does this unashamedly old-school FPS make a strong first impression? We're about three or so...
Feature Is Survival Mode the Best Way to Play Fallout 4?
We got ourselves a bleeder

Snark aside, we're hoping that the shooter's single player campaign is up to snuff, because what we've seen of it so far has looked promising. In the game's...
Rumour Cancelled Open World Sci-Fi Title Prey 2 Could Be Revived at E3 2016
Close encounters
Those of you with good memories may remember a game called Prey 2, which was announced for the PlayStation 3 back in 2011. A sequel to the original Prey - a first-person sci-fi shooter - Prey 2 was supposedly going to be a pretty big deal; an open world action game in which you played as a bounty hunter, tracking down aliens and...
News Don't Expect DOOM PS4 Reviews Any Time Soon
Review code not being sent until launch
We're really looking forward to DOOM here at Push Square Towers, but if you're still sitting on the fence, then you may need to wait a little while for reviews.

News DOOM's PS4 Launch Trailer Needs More Double Bass Pedal
Dub dub-dub-dub dub
Even as an avid Taylor Swift fan, this author readily admits that sometimes – just sometimes – one needs a little heavy metal in their life. This all-new DOOM launch trailer, with its squealing guitars and muddy basslines, is the perfect tonic to an afternoon spent listening to bittersweet bubblegum pop, then – but where's...

Far Harbor is Fallout 4's first big expansion, and it's out in just a couple of weeks. Emerging from its vault, Bethesda's unleashed the add-on's official trailer, which we've embedded.

News Fallout 4's Survival Mode Update Is Coming to PS4 Very Soon
Third person camera also improved
Fallout 4's survival mode is finally out of its own beta and, er, into another. The new mode is available right now on PC as part of the game's 1.5 update beta - and that means a console version of the patch can't be far off. If we had to guess, we'd say that it'll probably be available to download within the next...
DLC Review Building Deathclaw Arenas in Fallout 4: Wasteland Workshop on PS4
Are you not entertained?
Unlike Automatron, Wasteland Workshop, Fallout 4's second slice of downloadable content, doesn't feature any quests, stories, or new characters. It's very much an add-on pack in both name and nature, providing you with a load of new settlement crafting options and not much else. However, for its relatively low price tag,...

In case you missed all the chest-thumping on social media, the 2016 BAFTA Game Awards were held earlier tonight.

News Bethesda's Already Hyping Its E3 2016 Showing
Dishonored! Fallout! The Elder Scrolls!
Surely it's not time to start thinking about E3 2016? We suppose it's just over two months until the big show now, which means that we're pulling out the Push Square oxygen masks in preparation for any impending panic attacks. Bethesda, it seems, is not really bothered about the encroaching nature of the...

Should make the game a little beta
DOOM, the next iteration in the original FPS franchise, is getting an open beta from 15th April to 18th April, which will contain the Team Deathmatch and Warpath – a king-of-the-hill-type mode in which the target territory moves around in a circular pattern – modes as well as the Heatwave and Infernal maps...

There's a new update out for Fallout 4 on PlayStation 4 - but don't get excited just yet.

News Here Are the Full Details on Fallout 4's Survival Mode
Wasted in the wasteland
Fallout 4's incoming survival mode is sounding more and more like a rather drastic gameplay overhaul as opposed to a new difficulty setting.

News Fallout 4's Far Harbor Expansion Sounds Bloody Massive
Making waves
Fallout 4's already stuffed with content, boasting one of the most dense game worlds that we've seen in quite some time - and it sounds as though it's about to get a heck of a lot bigger. The game's third piece of downloadable content, titled Far Harbor, is set to be a more traditional expansion, introducing a fresh location that...
Review Fallout 4: Automatron (PS4)
Robots rock
Fallout 4: Automatron is a logical step for a game that puts so much emphasis on its expansive crafting system. Allowing you to build and customise your own robotic partners, Fallout 4's first add-on has the potential to breath some new life into a dusty old save file, but don't expect its main quest line to keep you occupied for more...
News Sony Revokes Free Fallout 4 Season Pass Purchases on PS4
Understandable
You win some, you lose some – but you've always got to try. Sony accidentally listed Fallout 4's pricey Season Pass for free late last week, leading many to believe that they'd nabbed all of Bethesda's post-release content at a complimentary fee. However, it's since revoked access to the DLC, so you'll need to stump up if you want...

Best stock up on InstaMash
Fallout 4's overhauled survival mode was confirmed weeks ago, but it's still yet to scavenge a concrete release date.

News Fallout 4's First DLC Looks Crazy, Launches Next Week on PS4
Gotta build 'em all
Automatron is shaping up to be the perfect excuse to jump back into Fallout 4, and we have to admit that we're intrigued by the add-on's official trailer. Judging from the clip, a lot of effort has gone into the main element of the download: robot customisation. The video shows off a load of different ways to build your...

Risky robotics
Bethesda still hasn't issued an official launch date for Fallout 4's first slice of downloadable content, but we know that it's due to release this month.

News Fallout 4's New PS4 Patch Preps the Game for DLC This Week
Atom bomb baby
Update 1.4 for Fallout 4 will arrive on PlayStation 4 this week, according to Bethesda.
