PSVR2 Is Coming, But Here’s a Reminder That PSVR Is Still Alive and Kicking

Sony releases new trailer for existing headset.

Sony may be preparing a big PSVR2 push, presumably later this year, but that doesn’t mean it’s forgotten its existing virtual reality headset. A new promotional trailer published on YouTube earlier today showcases the vibrant software slate on the ageing accessory – even five years after its initial release.

The trailer mixes some recent releases, like After the Fall and Song in the Smoke, with a handful of upcoming titles: Wanderer, Zenith: The Last City, and Moss: Book II. To be fair, the device has been well supplied with software throughout its half-decade history, so you really can’t complain if you were an early-adopter of this eye-popping tech.

Assassin’s Creed Series’ Original Ending Saw Desmond Blasting Off Into Space

If you weren't happy with how Desmond Miles' story came to an end in Assassin's Creed III, just know we almost got something a lot weirder. According to Assassin's Creed III director Alex Hutchinson, the third entry of the Assassin's Creed series almost ended with Desmond blasting off into space.

In a recent interview with Eurogamer, Hutchinson told the outlet the now long-running Assassin's Creed series was originally intended to be a trilogy, which ultimately ended with the destruction of Earth. However, while the rest of the planet was forced to deal with imminent death, Desmond and former Abstergo Industries researcher Lucy Stillman got an arguably much better deal. According to Hutchinson, the pair were meant to board a spaceship together and set off to a new planet, where they would become the new Adam and Eve and create a new civilization.

The news of Assassin's Creed's almost-alternate ending first surfaced late last year, when Lars de Wildt, a researcher of conspiracy theories, religion, and other beliefs in digital media culture at KU Leuven, published a research paper filled with interviews given by various Assassin's Creed developers back in 2019. In de Wildt's piece, notable Assassin's Creed developers--such as Hutchinson and Assassin's Creed co-creator Patrice Désilets--shared with the researcher their original plans for Assassin's Creed III, including a fun fact about why Lucy was given that name.

"That's why she's called Lucy, after the Australopithecus afarensis," Désilets said. This is a reference to a collection of fossils dating back nearly 3.2 million years ago, to the first female of the hominin species, affectionately named Lucy.

Of course none of this is how the first portion of the Assassin's Creed series played out. While the universe remains intact, both Desmond and Lucy weren't quite as lucky. However, while it might not be a literal legacy, the two characters did spark a series that has since gone on to span 12 main games and 17 spin-offs. Assassin's Creed's most recent title, Assassin's Creed Valhalla, is slated to get a brand-new expansion on March 10.

These Are Dying Light 2’s Graphical Options on PS5

Raytracing! Resolution! Framerate!

Phwoar, it’s a looker! Dying Light 2 launches early next month on the PlayStation 5, and it’s a stunner to say the least. As has become common with most new-gen releases, there’ll be a number of visual configurations for you to flit between at launch, including a quality option with ray-tracing and a full 4K alternative.

We imagine the majority of you will plump up for performance mode, which sacrifices some fidelity for that sweet 60 frames-per-second. Either way, you’ll be able to toggle between these settings at will, and settle upon one that suits your needs. So, what will it be? Pick your preferred option in the comments section below.

The Uncharted: Legacy of Thieves Collection Launch Trailer Is Here

Drake's back.

Exactly one week out from the PlayStation 5 release of the Uncharted: Legacy of Thieves Collection, Sony has shared the launch trailer that depicts Uncharted 4: A Thief's End and Uncharted: The Lost Legacy in their remastered glory. As you can probably imagine, footage focuses on memorable clips from the two titles, but if you haven't played either before, you might want to avoid watching. There are one or two scenes that can be considered spoilers.

In case you need reminding, there is a paid PS4 to PS5 upgrade option. If you own the PS4 versions of either A Thief's End or The Lost Legacy, the upgrade will cost you £10/$10. You only need to have one of them — if you don't own the other, you get it for free as part of the PS5 collection. The PS Plus versions aren't included in this offer, however. Standalone, the remastered collection costs £44.99/$49.99.
