Since then Yoshida has appeared at numerous events and panels to talk up VR, including SCE’s Paris Games Week (PGW) press conference last night. The company also hinted at the possibility of the game being compatible with PS VR technology as well. To quote Sony, “Tonight is no time for nostalgia”. The game has a voxel style aesthetic, a look that is popularised by Minecraft.

At any rate, “Tekken 7” isn’t the first title to get into the virtual reality bandwagon.
Bandai Namco Entertainment Inc. director and producer Katsuhiro Harada unveiled “Tekken 7” during Sony’s Paris Game Week Conference 2015. Avicii Vector was shown off and delivered a new trailer that confirmed multiplayer for the game.
The thing I love so much about gaming in 2015 is that no matter your preferred platform, you’re a victor because every one has games to recommend it. Sony’s line-up is looking particularly strong, though, and PlayStation 4 owners have a lot to look forward to in the next year, even without PlayStation VR.
As for new content, Sony had a few surprises up their sleeves. As well as new and seasoned fighters Lili, King, Leo, Steve, Paul, Xiaoui, Hwoarang, Bryan, Dragunov, Jin, Devil Jin, Marshall Law and more. The trailer showed off more Walker Assault gameplay, in addition to gameplay on other maps and playable heroes like Darth Vader and Luke Skywalker.
“Tekken is celebrating its 20th anniversary with the latest chapter in the historic series”. You know, because I have about 90 digital video games stuck on my PlayStation 3 that can’t be used by any other means, and I don’t want to see those become useless for when Sony introduces “PlayStation Now Classic” streaming. Beta for Gran Turismo Sport will arrive in early 2016 but no launch date was offered. This is a more competitive Grand Turismo, where the focus will have you race for your favorite manufacturer and nation.
The reason Sony might be hesitant to add backwards compatibility is because it already has the PlayStation Now service.
You play a shaman in the open world game, who must traverse the world communing with nature and uncovering mystic altars to unlock greater powers. It will be interesting to see more of this game in the future.

Quantic Dream has a reputation for creating games that are high on cinematics and low on gameplay mechanics, but the Indogo Prophecy and Heavy Rain creator’s first PS4 game – Detroit – looks intriguing as it tackles the fine line between intelligent AI and humans.
