    The perfect PS5 bundle finally exists.

    The PS5 has finally been bundled with the game that makes purchasing the console totally worth it. The Astro Bot PS5 bundle is $450 and goes on sale March 13th. It’s a PS5 slim model that comes with the disk drive and 1 TB of storage.

    Not that you’ll need all that space because Astro Bot, 2024’s wholly correct Game of the Year, is the only game you’ll ever need to play on it.

    Today’s the day to Split some Fiction with a friend.

    Split Fiction, the new game from It Takes Two developer Hazelight Studios, launches today on Xbox, PlayStation, and PC. Because the game requires co-op play, Hazelight is bringing back the popular Friend Pass program.

    With Friend Pass, if you own Split Fiction, you can invite a friend to play with you without needing to purchase a second copy of the game. Friend Pass is also cross-play enabled, making it easier than ever to find your Player 2.

    Is this really the last of The Last of Us?

    In a new interview in Variety, Neil Druckmann, creative director of The Last of Us series, doesn’t seem confident the popular game turned HBO hit will get a third installment. “I guess the only thing I would say is don’t bet on there being more of ‘Last of Us.’ This could be it,” he says in the interview.

    Which is odd because just last year Druckmann said he thinks there’s one more chapter left to the story.

    There’s a new Suikoden coming.

    To mobile. In preparation for the release of the Suikoden I & II HD remasters launching on March 6th, Konami held a livestream event complete with a live orchestra performance guaranteed to put fans in all of their feelings.

    And while fans of the classic JRPG series are excited about an anime adaptation coming for Suikoden II, they are far less enthused by the news that, Suikoden Star Leap, the first new, mainline entry in the series in almost 20 years will be a gacha game.
