ICYMI: Sony State of Play May 2024
There's a lot heading to PlayStation 5 owners in the coming year. The rumors are true: Team Asobi is working on a new Astro Bot game, and we don't have to wait too long for it, as the developer unveiled that its next project is out on September 6, exclusively for the PS5.
Titled Astro Bot, Team Asobi's next project debuted an adorable gameplay trailer and explained in a PS Blog post that players will explore over 80 levels spanning six galaxies as they look for Astro's missing crew.
There's also another first-party PlayStation project is on its way to PC. This time, it's Sony Santa Monica's 2022 action game God of War Ragnarok, which will arrive on PC on September 19.
God of War Ragnarok's PC version will include the Valhalla DLC, and PC-centric features such as support for ultrawide monitors, unlocked frame rates, and supersampling techs like DLSS and FSR.
After the State of Play, a PlayStation Blog post revealed that players must have a PlayStation Network account to play the PC version of God of War Ragnarok. This decision may be polarizing for some, as Sony was under fire for mandating a PSN account for PC versions of Helldivers 2 and Ghost of Tsushima Director's Cut. However, the former escaped the PSN requirement after public outcry.
