How Hellraiser made it through the ratings boards is beyond me. But I give the devs 10/10 with authenticity and sticking to what Hellraiser is.

Hellraiser franchise has had it's fair share of ups, downs, more downs and even more downs. But luckily Dimension doesn't have the movie rights anymore. And there is a rumour that Clive Barker is in fact writing and directing a new Hellraiser movie. So that would be amazing.

@phreak - you what im waiting for ... the release date on Kena 2. The first game was a complete gem and likely my game of the year when it was released.

@VectorTwoSix

For now I would not be hopeful, this article was released https://wccftech.com/phantom-blade-zero-playstation-5-pulled-listings-no-physical-edition/ that shows for now, there is no intention for a physical release, maybe it will be like Black Myth Wukong where they will release physical later

Possibly after the timed exclusivity ends

Look I'm really excited for Phantom Blade Zero, but I refuse to buy it digitally. Much like Black Myth Wukong, I will wait if I have to, but if you're getting a physical, please sign me up (I heard rumours there would be some physicals released).

I'm very excited for FF Resonance.

I'm going to binge play Hellraiser the whole weekend. It's so freaking good. Hellraiser: Revival has such sights to show you.

New PS5 Update Adds DualSense Pairing Across Multiple Devices Simultaneously

by Sam Aberdeen on 17 September, 2025

      1

     

A new PS5 update is now available that allows the DualSense and DualSense Edge controllers to be paired across multiple devices simultaneously (specifically, up to four devices). Before the update, the DualSense wireless controller could only be paired on one device at a time, meaning you had to pair the controller each time you switched from console to PC or mobile and vice versa.

The new PS5 Update is going to allow seamless transitioning between using the DualSense controller on multiple devices at once. Basically you won’t need to pair the device every time you make the switch as it will be connected at all times to your previously paired devices including PS5 and PC. Additionally, the update adds Power Saver for games, “a new mode that enables supported PS5 games to run with lower power consumption and reduce environmental impact.”



Sony explained the new DualSense pairing support in more detail on a recent PlayStation blog post:

“With this update, you can now register up to four devices simultaneously, and easily switch between them directly from your controller. For example, you can take your controller which you use with your PS5, then seamlessly switch connection to a PC to play PC games, or connect it to a smartphone to enjoy Remote Play from your PS5. With this enhanced flexibility, you can enjoy gaming more freely across multiple devices.”


How to pair your controller to multiple devices

By pressing a combination of the PS button and one of the action buttons (triangle button/circle button/cross button/square button), you can assign a device to your desired slot.

If a USB cable is connected to your controller, disconnect it before pairing.

1. Make sure the light bar and player indicator on your controller is off. If they’re turned on, press and hold the PS button until they turn off.
2. Press and hold one of the action buttons (triangle, circle, cross, or square) and the PS button for over 5 seconds. The light bar and player indicator flash two times.
3. Turn on Bluetooth on your device, and select the option to add Bluetooth devices. Your device detects nearby Bluetooth devices.
4. Select your controller from the detected devices. The light bar lights up, and the player indicator’s lights blink according to the slot number.

How to switch devices

Once the device is registered on your controller, you can switch between devices by pressing the PS button and the action buttons (triangle, circle, cross, or square) corresponding to a slot. You can do this when the controller is turned on or off.

1. Turn on the device you want to connect to.
2. Press and hold one of the action buttons and the PS button for about 3 seconds. When the light bar and player indicator blink, release both buttons. The light bar lights up, and the player indicator’s lights blink according to the slot number.

Definitely a welcome update. This was a minor gripe I've had for a while switching between using my Dualsense on my phone and then needing to connect it to a USB to get it to pair with my PS5 after each use.
