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...

Vita saved: New games confirmed at PlayStation Experience

Perhaps not completely saved, in fact still tucked away in Sony's so-last-year box but hey - the Vita gets a big game for 2015. At first I thought they said that Atlus will bring the PS4 and PS3 title Persona 5 west along with a Vita version, (UPDATE: Or not, guess i misheard still there was lots of other stuff coming!) based on the back of the success of Persona 4 Golden.

Of course, that's not to say Persona 5 Portable isn't in the works! However, we do (finally) get Resident Evil 2 Revelations (having been mis-announced and rumoured a few times) to the Vita via Capcom and Sony Third Party Studios. Plus an almost inevitable MLB 15 The Show.

Additional games coming for Vita include Geometry Wars 3, Transistor (I think, these guys really need to stick labels on everything) and the rather cute Xbox adventure Bastion. With some six million viewers tuning into watch the keynote speech, plus thousands more at the Las Vegas show, it was a lively old keynote bash.

UPDATE: EA is giving away Need for Speed on the Vita on PSN this weekend, not sure if that's US only but will check.

UPDATE: Shovel Knight, best indie game of the year, confirmed for Vita in 2015. Also coming is an all-new game, Severed from Drinkbox.

UPDATE: Gio Corsi announced Suidoken I and II coming to PS Vita (as in the PS One titles), Towerfall Ascension, with expansion pack DarkWorld plus Super Time Force Ultra (pictured), and strategy RPG The Banner Saga.

To go along with Grim Fandango, Day of the Tentacle will also be coming to PS4 and Vita.
