Saros delivers Returnal 2 in all but name

Housemarque's Returnal remains one of the best PS5 games. Built to kill, raised to die, and fine-tuned to annoy the shit out me while dragging me back in for yet another go at  2AM.  Not-a-sequel Saros ropes in my one of my favourite actors Rahul Kohli into the mix with proper shields, greater weapons freedom, Indian-styled visuals, and borrowing  Xenon 2: Megablast's palette and violence.  Saros is set on Carcosa, a shape-shifting, hostile alien planet. It changes on every death, where a total eclipse changes everything (very Pitch Black!). The video shows the first biome, hopefully the others shift up the palette more than Returnal did.  Along his journey he finds Nitya Chandran (Shunori Ramanthan), adding some depth to the Returnal-mayhem. The stunning environment Arjun explores is that of a lost ancient civilization fueled by the twisted enlightenment of the eclipse.  Saros lands in March 2026, check out the PlayStation blog post for more details on w...

Minecraft for Vita still go for launch

As Microsoft splurges the cash for the game's publisher, Mojang, the team tries to assure everyone that it is business as usual for the firm's stand-out title. Minecraft will appear on the Vita, will continue to be supported. But as for any notion of a Minecraft 2, I think that's pretty much a Microsoft play thing now.



As for Notch, he can do pretty much whatever he likes once he leaves, hopefully he'll keep the Vita (which he mentioned he rather liked) in his thoughts for whatever comes next from Mr. Persson. Notch's personal statement says the deal is about preserving his sanity.

From the company's post:

What about the other editions of Minecraft? Will they stop being developed? 

There’s no reason for the development, sales, and support of the PC/Mac, Xbox 360, Xbox One, PS3, PS4, Vita, iOS, and Android versions of Minecraft to stop. Of course, Microsoft can’t make decisions for other companies or predict the choices that they might make in the future.

UPDATE: The game now has a US ESRB age rating, which suggests it has finally passed Sony testing, which just leaves the final hurdles to getting the cards printed for the boxed copy and content on PSN for (probably next week's) update. I think we can safely ignore Amazon US's December release date.
