Some words from Kitase and the team (oh, and the game's director, Hamaguchi, is saying the game could take as long as 100 hours): Yeah, I think I'm just going to spend 100 hours in the Gold Saucer alone Also, the game's PS Blog entry confirms a lot more details on the game - well worth a read - including confirmation that Sephiroth WILL be playable in the same section he was playable in the original game, and also confirms where the game ends (it's exactly where you'd probably expect the second entry of a trilogy retelling the events of VII to end).

A wonderful piece of promo art: Oh, nice catch, yeah that's great news!

The Collector's Edition looks nuts Quick, someone hide my wallet!

The new Deep Earth Collection, as revealed in the SoP: One of my three DualSenses have started to drift terribly in the left stick, had my eye on a Limited Edition controller to replace it, and while that's still on the cards, think that silver one will do for now! Per the PS Blog, pre-orders drop October 4th.

Trailer from today's SoP: Think it's the best showing of the game so far, just rattling off everything new. Also got a showcase of the Digital Deluxe suits: And a reminder that previews drop tomorrow at 15:00 BST Bit over a month to go now, excited to return to NY!

February 29th 2024!!! This, Granblue Fantasy Relink and Persona 3 Reload all in Feb guys... WHYYYYYYYYYYY

Man, Sony really need to get their act together on when these things start. They typically start a few minutes late, and this one they told us starts at 22:00...but the countdown on the stream is until 22:05? Also, they've been a little sneaky and only just mentioned late this evening that the event will be a bit over 20 minutes long... ....which there's no mention of in the original blog post (which is even linked in this updated tweet?). I'm getting some really weird vibes from this one. Here's to hoping I'm wrong.

Well well well, time for some Helldivers 2 tonight then! Kind of hoping the Direct got the third party remasters/remakes out of the way... You know, other than Battlefront II. Give it to me, Sony!

Huh, a gameplay trailer suddenly appears! Demo available now, with save data able to be carried over to the full release:

I KNEW I'D ALREADY MADE A THREAD FOR THIS! Damn search bar made it hell to find...and it's time to retitle the thread from Gallery to Museum! As announced in today's Direct, construction is now scheduled to be completed in March 2024 (so, still in line - just about - with the previously announced "by end of FY23" goal). Super excited to see how this turns out!

Yeah, I don't feel like there's much to really say. In for Thousand Year Door, have some interest in Another Code Recollection (just based on all the good things I've heard about the original games), but otherwise agree with the sentiment of @drahkon and @Dcubed: that was a LOT of remakes/remasters. And none of them were Explorers of Sky or Battlefront II, Takahashi, you heathen! Definitely winding down on the Switch, we have a lot on the way and I'm definitely picking and choosing battles - I think the only games I'm 100% on getting (Switch exclusive, at least) that's announced for the rest of its slate are Super Mario RPG and Thousand Year Door. I've got other games to go back to, but honestly, 2023 has been STACKED and the first half of 2024 is already STACKED, so honestly, middling as I thought that Direct was, I'm kind of happy I'm not coming away with a long list of games to play for a change. I already have a long list of games to play. Always have done.

THEY PULLED THE THOUSAND DOOR TRIGGER - FINALLY! IT LOOKS FREAKING BEAUTIFULLLLL A lot of love for the Mario RPGs of late, to put it lightly! Super excited to finally experience this game

Great get, I know those that have played it are putting it in the GOTY conversation!

Switch exclusive!

FINALLY A DATE! FINALLY! APRIL 23RD 2024! THE WORLD WILL FINALLY UNDERSTAND (also 2024 H1 becomes stacked with yet another JRPG)

Oh man that music exclusively available to NSO members

Previously announced but now we finally get a better look and a real title, aaaaaaaand...what a title it is?

Thought this was total Final Fantasy Tactics bait...but Vanillaware means otherwise! Also coming to other platforms (listed in the tags)

Freaking FF Tactics bait lmao EDIT: I take it back. Atlus/Vanillaware?!

Konami and WayForward teaming up for this Contra reimagining is not what I was expecting!

Bet @RedShell is chuffed right now

I mean...who else would it be starring? Happy Valentine's!

Trailer from today's Direct: Looking good

Princess Peach: Showtime! coming 22nd March 2024! This looks like good fun! Kung Fu Peach looks rad
