Insider claims FromSoftware is the reason we haven't gotten a Bloodborne remake
2015's bloodborne is a beloved title, with the FromSoftware-developed PS4 exclusive being many fans' favourite game from the studio. Despite this, we've seen nothing from the IP since its launch, with the game remaining locked to an uneven 30fps at just 1080p. Unfortunately, despite fan pleas, it seems things aren't going to change, with insiders revealing that the ill-fated BluePoint Studios pitched Sony a Bloodborne remake before their closure -- a pitch which was approved by Sony but rejected by FromSoft.

The Anbernic RG Vita, as analyzed by ETA Prime, is a handheld gaming device that blends retro aesthetics with modern functionality. Powered by the UNISOC T618 chipset, it is designed to cater to retro gaming enthusiasts and Android gamers, offering a 5.46-inch IPS display and a 5,000mAh battery for extended play sessions. While the device excels at emulating classic systems like the SNES and PS1, its performance is limited when handling more demanding platforms such as the GameCube and PS2. This balance between capability and constraint positions the RG Vita as a versatile yet imperfect option for handheld gaming.

God of War Sons of Sparta review: "Retro-style Metroidvania Kratos struggles to stand out, making for an overly tame adventure"
God of War Sons of Sparta struggles to deliver on the best of God of War or the best the Metroidvania genre has to offer. Combat is dull and lifeless despite a handful of nice ideas, and it's visually ugly and muddy. Even lacking in brutal finishers, this all feels quite tame. It's not bad, but serviceable struggles to excite -- and that's a sin for God of War.

A new rumor suggests Sony could be preparing a two-pronged handheld push, starting with a refreshed PlayStation Portal in 2026 and continuing with a separate, fully standalone PlayStation handheld aimed at local gameplay.

The key change mentioned is a switch to an OLED display, replacing the LCD panel used on the current Portal. An OLED upgrade would be an expected move for a mid-cycle refresh, bringing improved contrast, deeper blacks, and a generally more premium image presentation, especially in darker environments where LCD backlight limitations are more noticeable.

The PlayStation 5 Pro arrived in November 2024 with the promise of being the definitive way to play console games, but its first year has been somewhat muted. While it is technically the most powerful console on the market, some still feel that its specialised hardware remains underutilised. A particular sticking point has been the initial iteration of PSSR (PlayStation Spectral Super Resolution), which, in many titles, has been prone to visual glitches and shimmering rather than providing a consistent "next-gen" leap in image clarity.

PlayStation 5 Pro PSSR 2.0 Is Allegedly Launching Between January and March, Delivering 'Higher Resolution For Classic Games'
Despite being the most powerful console on the market, the PlayStation 5 Pro hasn't made a huge splash following its launch in November 2024, as users felt its power was left underutilized and some of its unique features, such as the AI-powered PSSR upscaler, left something to be desired, especially in its first incarnation which failed to deliver significant image quality improvements, often delivering visual glitches instead.

Sony's PS5 Price Hikes Go Into Effect Today But You Can Dodge Them If You Hurry
Sony announced a round of sweeping price cuts to its entire PlayStation 5 console family, which go into effect in the United States today. According to Sony, it was a "difficult decision" as it continues to "navigate a challenging economic environment," which is code for tariffs, though not so difficult that it decided to leave well enough alone for a console generation that is approaching five years old. If you're fast, however, you can still snag a PS5 at the now-old MSRP, or even a little cheaper.
