A report from Bloomberg has revealed that PlayStation is shutting down Bluepoint Games, developers of 2020’s Demon’s Souls remake, 2018’s Shadow of the Colossus remake, and many other remasters/remakes.

Sony held its first PlayStation State of Play for 2026, and it was a great show! Ember Labs is back with Kena: Scars of Kosmora. God of War: Sons of Sparta brings a new angle to the iconic franchise.

In 2020, Sucker Punch delivered a certified hit with Ghost of Tsushima. As a love letter to classic Japanese cinema, its gripping story, immersive open world, and visceral combat made it one of my favorite games from the PS4 generation. Five years later, the team is back with Ghost of Yōtei, a game that aims to give us more of what we got before, just refined to a razor’s edge. Not every swing lands, and the reliance on what worked before weakens Ghost of Yōtei in some key ways, but when it hits, it’s sharp enough to cut through the noise and make this another fun and memorable adventure.
