33 1/3: Insights from PlayStation.Blog

Sure, here we go:

Hey folks, whaddya know! Sid, Tim, and I popped back up this week. We jabbered about all sorts of wild stuff, like the new Grand Theft Auto VI trailer. It’s like a visual rollercoaster, no joke. And then there’s Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, which, for some reason, makes me think of turn-based RPGs in a totally new way. Maybe it’s the coffee talking? Anyway—Doom: The Dark Ages also had us going medieval, literally. Can you even imagine?

So, here’s the stuff we gabbed about:

There’s a load of cool games hitting next week:

• Labyrinth of the Demon King for PS5 and PS4. Sounds menacing, right?
• Palia on PS5. Not sure why, but that name just feels cozy.
• Smash Drums joins the VR2 scene. Ever tried drumming virtually? It’s like slapping spaghetti on walls and hoping to hear a tune.
• Doom: The Dark Ages on PS5. Knights and demons—because why the heck not?
• Capcom Fighting Collection 2 on PS4. Punchy punch goodness!

And get this, Destiny 2 has two expansions on the way: "The Edge of Fate" dropping July 15, and "Renegades" on December 2. Sounds epic, doesn’t it?

Oh, and Elden Ring Nightreign is getting some serious Heisenberg-level deep dives into combat and classes. If that tickles your fancy, you’re probably cooler than I am.

Death Stranding 2, dubbed "On The Beach" (not literally, I hope), has this hands-on report and a chat with Hideo Kojima himself. Can you imagine talking to that genius? I’d probably just mumble geeky stuff and hope he finds it endearing.

Don’t miss Helldivers 2 either—we got a fresh peek at those snazzy Masters of Ceremony Premium Warbond. Whatever that means, it sounds cool.

And to wrap up, Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3+4 is coming in hot with nine brand-spankin’-new skate parks. Seriously, imagine skating through these while munching on your favorite snack. Multitasking at its finest.

Big thanks to Dormilón for kickin’ it with us with that rad theme song and sweet tunes.

Quick side note: Game release dates dance around sometimes, like cats on hot tin roofs. Publishers dish out details, and the ESRB throws in their two cents, too.
