A little late getting the round up of news from Paris Games Week, as I had the unfortunate timing of a dentist appointment midway through the conference. I was keeping up to date with comments sat in the waiting room getting more hyped with the news I was reading with regards to new trailers for Spider-Man and The Last of us II. It was announced 7 new games would be revealed today, and that E3 2017 earlier this year was just the start. Here’s what Sony offered up at Paris Games Week.
We will be getting a sequel to the hugely popular and successful Guacamelee, with Guacamelee 2.
Following on from that announce trailer was a trailer for a game called Hong Kong Massacre. It’s looks like a top down version of Max Payne. Looks pretty promising.
Moving on and changing pace completely the next game to revealed is called The Gardens Between. It’s an animated puzzle game.
A sequel to a PlayStation Portable / PlayStation Vita game is up next and one I’m chuffed to bits to see happening. Loco Roco 2 Remaster coming to PS4.
When the Sims comes to PS4 in November, it’ll release featuring the majority of its PC expansion content, following the Sims was the announcement of Tennis World Tour. I do enjoy a good Tennis game, so glad to see one making it’s way to PS4.
Next up are 2 new PlayStation VR titles. Megalith and Bow to Blood.

We get a first look at a new game from Codemasters that initially had me seeing a resemblance to Burnout. Looks fun, it’s called On Rush.
And to finish the show out we get another look at the ridiculously impressive first party output due to hit PS4 soon with new trailers for Spider-Man, Detroit, God of War, Shadow of the Colossus and The Last of us II.
