Sekiro: Updates die twice


Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice, From Software's blisteringly difficult action/adventure which released last year to critical acclaim (and many Game of the Year awards) will finally receive a massive update this October that introduces the co-op-like Remnants, new costumes, and a much-requested boss rush mode for those who want to be punished twice (or a few more times). The update lands on October 29th, 2020 for PS4, Xbox One and PC, so unsheathe your swords once more and dive back into the grim world of Sekiro.

Cuphead comes to PlayStation


Speaking of blisteringly difficult gaming experiences, Studio MDHR finally revealed that Cuphead will be coming to the PlayStation 4 - actually, it's out right now. The hard-as-nails 2D platformer with a gorgeous art style was shadowdropped this week, along with a relatively affordable price tag of R319. It's not much to pay for one of last decade's finest gaming experiences, and if you're a fan of old-school platformers, this is one you cannot miss out on.

Two Spidey's swing into action this holiday?


While not officially confirmed yet by Sony or developer Insomniac Games, it's believed that the upcoming Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales for PS5 will come bundled with the original PS4 Spider-Man completely remastered.
