E3 2017: Highlights From the Media Showcase and Beyond

During the demo, you’ll see a sampling of Spider-Man’s more powerful improvisational and acrobatic combat style. He’s honed his skills and he’s stronger and more confident in combat. Dodging, using webs, and aerial combat are all second nature. You may also notice the usage of Web Trip Wire and impact webs. After spending eight years fighting crime in the city, Parker’s genius in the lab and workshop has led to the creation of many new gadgets and devices that he can use as Spider-Man during the course of the game.

So, why are we here? Because we’re bringing our upcoming team-based FPS, LawBreakers, to PS4 on August 8th (that’s right, an actual release date), and we just had to let everyone see it here at E3. So yeah, we braved the craziness to be here at E3 to have LawBreakers playable on the show floor… ON PS4 for the first time EVER. Pretty awesome to give console players a taste of the high-skill, gravity-defying combat at our booth. We’re showcasing the latest content, including recent additions: our triple-jumping Wraith Role and buzzer-beating Blitzball mode.

Plus, we worked A LOT on making sure the controls translate to PS4 and play nice and smooth. Oh, and for those of you who didn’t brave the E3 insanity, we’ll have a Closed Beta later this month (so, go register!) – more details on that soon. As always, check out our cinematic trailer if you haven’t already.

For those just now discovering the project, Sundered is a horrifying fight for survival and sanity. You play Eshe, a wanderer in a ruined world, trapped in ever-changing caverns teeming with terrifying hordes of monsters. Choose to resist or embrace ancient eldritch powers and battle epic bosses before challenging Nyarlathotep, the game’s fearsome end boss revealed in our latest trailer here. We’re so excited to be launching Sundered on PlayStation in July. We set out to build on the strengths of our first game, Jotun, and I can confidently state that Sundered is the best work our team has ever done. I hope you’ll join the Sundered horde this summer!

Greetings, PlayStation heroes! I’m Bidds, the director of onebitbeyond Ltd, and I’m super excited to announce that our first game, The Swords of Ditto, will debut on PlayStation 4 early next year. The Swords of Ditto is what we’re calling a “compact adventure” for one or two players to take up the mantle of the legendary hero of the Island of Ditto and battle against the vile sorceress Mormo. Every adventure is unique, as a new hero journeys through a remixed overworld and dungeons using a fresh collection of weapons, items, and magical collectible stickers. Overcome Mormo and become the next adventure’s hero of legend – or fail and let evil grip the land for a hundred years! It’s up to you! We can’t wait to share more over the coming months and hear what the PlayStation community thinks of The Swords of Ditto.

Three years ago my wife Sara and I left our jobs, sold our home, put things in storage and decided to see if we could make a go of video games while living as digital nomads. We built seven different prototypes during the first two years – none of them felt right. So it’s a bit of an understatement to say that we’re excited to officially announce Unto The End. It’s a game with skillful combat, featuring a non-hero protagonist and an action-crafted narrative. Underpinning it all is an effort to refine the 2D adventure-combat experience by stripping away anything that might distract the player. No HUD, no gold, no leveling, just player skill determining success.

Our PS4 target is 2018. Expect to hear much more from us as we push towards our final release. Watch the trailer for a first look at Unto The End.

All of us at Digital Uppercut are cosmically hyped to announce fierce 2D action-platformer Valfaris – a heavy-metal space saga and the next game from the team behind the raucously savage Slain: Back From Hell.

Set on Valfaris – a once-opulent floating citadel that has become tainted with a powerful evil – the game will blend brutal combat, cursed environments, twisted enemies, awesome pixel art, and a seismic soundtrack from former Celtic Frost guitarist Curt Victor Bryant, so expect riffs with enough metal to tear the galaxy a new wormhole.

Valfaris will be hitting PS4 in 2018, and we can’t wait to share more details as development progresses. In the meantime, check out the Valfaris E3 announcement trailer.

Greetings, PlayStation fans! I’m Christian Schlütter, producer at Kalypso Media. I am excited to tell you about Sudden Strike 4 and the authenticity that the foundations upon which our upcoming strategy heavyweight is built. Sudden Strike 4 marks the return of the legendary real-time tactics series, which brings you the biggest and most dramatic historically accurate battles from World War II and tasks you with becoming not just a soldier, but a general, with the outcome of some of the biggest conflicts in history at stake. As well as the tactical depth, here at Kalypso Media we’re exceptionally proud of the authenticity and realism found in Sudden Strike 4. Map accuracy, the ability to choose your own general, tactically demanding combat, skill development, and unit maintenance provide a gameplay experience like no other. There’s no base-building or unit creation. The only resource you have to manage is the lives of your loyal troops, and they’ll be relying on your wits and combat nous to see them through to the end of the mission. Sudden Strike 4 is a new milestone in strategy gaming on PlayStation, and we can’t wait for you to play it. See you on the field, soldier!

Set in a post-apocalyptic wasteland where military bases are humanity’s last city-states, Dead Alliance pits warring teams of players against each other for survival in a world ravaged by the zombie plague. It features a variety of 4v4 multiplayer modes, including Team Deathmatch, Free for All, King of the Hill, Capture and Hold, and the MOBA-inspired Attrition mode, as well as single-player survival horde mode and solo-ops.

Dead Alliance lets players customize and upgrade their loadouts with an arsenal of high-powered, military-grade weapons and advanced zombie-controlling tech called zMods. These zMods can be active or passive, and examples include the Enrager, a pheromone grenade that turns a single zombie into an ally of superior strength and resistance; the PAM grenade, which puts four zombies to work for you, but does not increase their damage resistance; and the Templar, which drives zombies away from you and de-frenzies any that have been pammed by the enemy. Use these and many more zMods available in the game to get the undead to join forces with you!

From time immemorial, the world has been at war.

In Extinction, you’ll fight massive ogres and their minions across a sprawling countryside, defending cities and rescuing native villagers torn from their homes. Swiftly define your strategy as hordes attack from the ground and air. Use the dynamic skill-based combat system to tactically disarm and dismember enemies before going in for the kill!

From sun to heavy rain, every change will decisively influence the rider’s visibility and the highly-deformable ground, putting even the most expert player to the test.

With E3 approaching, we are excited to reveal some of the terrifying cast you will encounter on board The Persistence!

During a scientific experiment, hundreds of the ship’s crew were accidentally teleported in to space. ‘IRIS’, the ships computer, tried to bring them all back but the DNA of The Persistence’s crew was merged and began to mutate.

This is how The Berserker was born. He’s 9ft tall, over 4ft wide, and has serious anger issues! It’s much safer to run and hide when you see a Berserker but if you’re ready to take a big risk, you can use his rage to your advantage. If you can somehow cause him damage, then the red mist descends and he’ll smash anything and anybody, including other mutants! Of course, if he sees you then his snarling face is going to be the last thing you ever see!

The only mutant onboard that he’s unable to kill is The Weeper, who will paralyse anyone that comes too close to her. She’s truly terrifying!

One day while exploring the woods she finds a mysterious stone and an ancient magic is awakened, linking you together in an extraordinary alliance. In gameplay, her skills are complementary to yours.

Mutual communication and shared victories will only strengthen your connection to each other and further your joint resolve.

Our design philosophy is that Sparc is a virtual sport, or vSport – a unique full-body experience only possible in virtual reality where your VR hardware is your sporting equipment. The game play is physical and energetic. Players use their PlayStation Move motion controllers to throw projectiles across the court at their opponent, while at the same time dodging, blocking or deflecting what’s incoming. The speed and pacing of a match is dictated by the players’ direct actions and reactions.
