June Update: PlayStation 6 and PlayStation Portable future visions

 The recent PlayStation video about the "simulated" technology in development, discussed between AMD and Sony engineers that will power the PlayStation 6 was interesting from a geek point of view. But from a gameplay perspective, there is - IMO - no need for a PlayStation 6 for another few years. Especially with the limp Xbox is-it-isn't-it launch .  June 2026 Update : The latest snippet of gossip for Sony's next-gen systems is a modular/external drive that will connect to both devices. Allowing installation on the portable of physical games, and reducing the cost of the PS6 by making the Blu-ray an accessory (like the PS5 Slim).  I prefer the idea of a dedicated dock on the PS6 that connects the next Portable to your entire PSN library, and they'd better make it work as an extra controller, but I'm sure there are practical benefits to the extra drive.   That should also boost sales of PS4 and PS5 physical games, especially on the second-hand market, as folk...

The PSP's Class of Heroes 3 is late for remaster school

After a trilogy of fun PSP role playing titles from Acquire/Atlus/MonkeyPaw, and some spin offs, all has been quiet in the rec room of the Class of Heroes series for many school years. But PQube is on the case with a Class of Heroes 3 Remaster hitting Switch and PlayStation later this year. 

Update: Amazon Canada has a pre-order page up with a release date of 25th August

The game never got a western release on PSP or PS3, but: "After a 15 year wait Class of Heroes 3, the revered school-themed dungeon RPG series, is finally here. Players can enrol in one of three distinct schools and join fellow students on an epic dungeon crawling adventure. Enjoy school life on campus and meet brand new friends from a huge range of characters and classes."

Update, check out the new launch trailer as the remaster finally hit stores on PS5, Switch and Steam. The PS5 digital version is £25, or £50 for the full trilogy. The physical release is £35 on Amazon

PlayStation 5 and Nintendo Switch owners can grab a physical release, with a digital PC release. Class of Heroes 3 comes with bigger dungeons, a range of school friends to add to the party, and many monsters to mash with their range of skills. Plus all the refinements over the originals, but now in glorious HD. 

Predecessor Class of Heroes 2 was as close as many gamers got to this series, so it should generate some interest, especially as it was badged as a JRPG for the non-hardcore fan base back in the day. 


No specific release date yet, but I'm guessing the project is fairly far along.
