Sony has finally revealed a release date after first announcing Lego Horizon Adventures in June. The game is coming to the PS5, Nintendo Switch, and PC.

Preorders open October 3rd. Also, there’s a new split-screen mode for Lego Fortnite.

In 2021, Hironobu Sakaguchi released Fantasian — a luxuriously beautiful RPG that uses handmade dioramas for the game’s backgrounds — exclusively on Apple Arcade where it has remained sequestered to the lament of JRPG enthusiasts everywhere. During today’s State of Play, Sakaguchi announced that a console port of the game will debut on PS5 December 5th. The game is also coming to Switch, PC, and Xbox.

These good old games can cost serious money to play on genuine discs, even assuming you’ve got an old console — so it’s great Lunar: Silver Star Story Complete and Lunar 2: Eternal Blue Complete are coming back! Sony announced them today for PS4 and PS5 but they’ll hit Switch, Xbox and Steam too.

A new gameplay trailer for Hell Is Us shows how you’ll have to go about defeating the faceless supernatural beings that have taken over your world. The game will come to PlayStation, Xbox Series X | S, and PC next year.

Astro Bot kicked off today’s State of Play presentation with a sneak peek at the game’s forthcoming DLC. We got a glance at snippets of the five new speedrun levels and the 10 new bots Astro will have to rescue including some Helldivers and Eve from Stellar Blade. Curiously, Team Asobi did not provide a release date for the DLC, sticking with the nebulous “Fall 2024” window.

The company’s State of Play presentation starts today at 6PM ET and will feature a slew of game announcements ostensibly to advertise the new PS5 Pro. Sony says the event will last roughly 30 minutes and feature over 20 games for PS5 and PSVR2.

I already showed you my hands-off photos, but here’s some video of Sony’s PlayStation 30th Anniversary Collection and normal PS5 Pro too. You’ll see two different PS5 Pros in here, plus a throwback grey PlayStation Portal, DualSense, DualSense Edge, and PS5 Slim. No retro USB-C cable though; I asked!

The PS5 Pro’s USB situation has baffled me. Sony showed CNET a console with one USB-A and one USB-C (in a USB-A cutout) on its rear, but a commenter mentioned a render on Sony’s site shows two USB-A.
