The Playstation Experience wrapped up over the weekend and Sony hit us all with an assault of trailers, news and reveals for everything coming to the Playstation family. During the one hour keynote opening witch you can watch here, we got a look at some big games that are on the way, and not just only for the PS4. In addition to mega titles like The Last of Us 2, Death Stranding, The Last Guardian, and Uncharted Legacy we got a healthy dose of the RPG action we at Fextralife crave. Let’s take a look at the highlights!

New Nioh Trailer

  1. Can someone tell my wallet I desperately need those games? I’m sure they’ll understand…

    Also, Absolver looks really good! Already had my interest few months ago

  2. Yeah, I’m with you, that trailer was incredible. The singing, in that bloody setting, was an incongruous yet perfect depiction for a TLoU part 2 announcement trailer. I’m sure it will be another masterpiece because in Naughty Dog I trust.

    Fex is right. For PlayStation fans, PSX is a much better showcase. How often do we get to see icon Hideo Kojima, and for a long, in-depth panel? They really gave good coverage to exclusives like Death Stranding, Horizon Zero Dawn, Nioh, Ni No Kuni 2 and of course the 2 Naughty Dog teams. I’ll be buying all those games. I didn’t see all of it so I don’t know if they included Tales of Bersaria and Persona 5. So many exciting exclusives. Heck, even the older, gentler dad version of Kratos has my interest (was it at PSX?).

    Did any of you watch the accessibility panel? PlayStation intends to keep us gaming into our nineties. Yay!

  3. E you forgot to add the biggest deal of the show: Last of Us 2!!! And Uncharted thingy.

    Awesome stuff nonetheless – I feel I get more out of Sony’s con than E3 these days lol
