Half-Life: Alyx release date is March 23 As promised, no delays. Valve said last month that it was "confident"  Half-Life: Alyx  would not be delayed past its targeted March release, and that seems to be the case: It announced today that the VR Half-Life 2 prequel will be out on March 23. Valve ✔ @valvesoftware Half-Life: Alyx, available March 23, 2020 https:// store.steampowered.com/app/546560/Hal fLife_Alyx/  … 26.7K 3:34 AM - Feb 14, 2020 Twitter Ads info and privacy 6,516 people are talking about this The  Steam page  still lists it as just March 2020, but that's the official Valve Twitter feed, folks, so I'd say that makes it solid. Valve also dropped a trio of screens that I think are new—I don't remember seeing them previously, at least. And for those who you who have purchased Valve Index VR rigs, preorder bonuses will start going out during the week of M...

The Last of Us 2 PAX East demo will give players an hour to patrol with Ellie and Dina The Last of Us 2  PAX East demo is bringing enough game to justify the struggle for a demo booth slot. Naughty Dog  revealed  today that it will bring an hour-long segment of The Last of Us 2 gameplay to the Boston convention: from February 27 to March 1, attendees will be able to try out a section of the game called "Patrol". This is the part of the game where Ellie and her girlfriend Dina head out of their home town of Jackson to clear out infected in the surrounding area Hour-long public demos for just about any game, let alone one as hotly anticipated as The Last of Us 2, are almost unheard of. It's a cool choice given its deliberate pace and the little bit of story Naughty Dog wants to reveal, though it does mean demo slots will likely be an extremely hot commodity. Your best bet at getting in will be to use the Experience PlayStation mobile app, as Naughty Dog says it ...

Watch Dogs Legion: everything we know so far Watch Dogs Legion, the third in the Watch Dogs series, will take place in the dystopian near-future. As with previous Watch Dogs games set in Chicago and San Francisco, Legion will be set in the fictional version of a major city. This time around, we're headed across the pond to London in order to, as creative director Clint Hocking told  Famitsu , approach problems in other parts of the world. London after Brexit, that is, so not too fictional nor too futuristic. Unlike previous Watch Dogs games, Legion brings a neat twist: Every character in the game is a potential protagonist for you to recruit to your cause. Each comes with their own traits and skills that you can use before hopping into another member of your budding resistance movement. Ubi shared a solid chunk of gameplay during its press conference to show off how different types of characters can be recruited and operate. We also went hands-on with Watch Dogs Le...

PS5 release date, specs, news and rumors for Sony’s PlayStation 5 PS5 (or PlayStation 5) is the next-generation PlayStation, releasing in late 2020, after a long and incredible decade that saw Sony emerge as the clear winner in the home console wars in the eyes of many (sorry Xbox). So what do we know about the PS5 so far? The hysteria started in early 2019, when Mark Cerny, the chief architect on Sony's next console, confirmed that the company was working on the successor to the PS4 Slim and PS4 Pro. We wouldn't get the official name or release date until much later, but Cerny did shed some light on the next-gen console's capabilities, revealing that it would retain a disc drive, and would have something to do with Sony's game streaming ambitions; other than that there was little else to go on. Since then, Sony has been feeding us juicy tidbits such as an official PS5 release window, logo, name and a few key details about features. Acc...
