Sony has announced its next State of Play stream, which will take place Thursday, August 6, at 1 PM PT / 4 PM ET. Sony says the stream will be 40 minutes in total.

After the PS5 reveal stream in June, updates for Sony’s latest console have been slim. That likely won’t change this week either, as the company has cautioned fans not to expect any big PS5 announcements. That includes updates on PlayStation Studios titles such as Spider-Man: Miles Morales, Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart, and Horizon Forbidden West. This also means PS5 pricing will not be discussed, as both Sony and Microsoft continue holding out on pre-orders.

The event will primarily focus on upcoming PS4 and PlayStation VR games that are still set to launch soon. Although the announcement does mention potential updates for third-party PS5 titles, the wording explicitly states that the core focus of the stream will be current-gen titles and not next-gen ones. Any third-party PS5 title updates will be for games that were previously revealed for the console, and not new announcements.

With the PlayStation 5 just around the corner, Sony has detailed how peripherals will work on the next-gen console. While some existing PS4 peripherals will be usable on PS5, your likely main point of interface–the DualShock 4 controller–will not make the jump.

In a post on the PlayStation Blog, Sony explained that PS5 games will not be compatible with the DualShock, because it feels that the games “should take advantage of the new capabilities and features we’re bringing to the platform, including the features of DualSense wireless controller.”

The PS4 DualShock and licensed third-party controllers will work with supported PS4 games on PS5.

Last year’s big-screen adaptation of Cats will never cease to be a wonder, whether you’re counting how universally disliked it is, how much money it supposedly lost (around $113 million, but who’s counting?), or how it became the first movie that needed a post-release visual patch while still in cinemas.

The movie was the subject of ridicule at February’s Academy Awards, which resulted in the industry’s Visual Effects Society officially disowning it–and now even the show’s original creator Andrew Lloyd Webber has spoken out against the Cats movie. In an interview with The Sunday Times, as picked up by Deadline, Webber knows exactly where he wants to put the blame for Cats’ failings.

“The problem with the film was that Tom Hooper decided that he didn’t want anybody involved in it who was involved in the original show,” Webber said in the interview. “The whole thing was ridiculous.”

Halo: The Master Chief Collection players have been complaining for some time about hit-detection in Halo 3. In short, it doesn’t feel right. Developer 343 Industries has now provided a new update on the matter, but unfortunately, a fix isn’t coming soon.

In a blog post, the developer said it’s aware of some viral videos that have gone around, in which fans suggest that dropping the engine to “30 ticks” would fix the hit-detection issue.

“Upon investigation, this is only half true, and it doesn’t solve the actual issue that is causing shot registration to encounter problems when being played at MCC’s higher tick rate,” 343 said.

No More Heroes III is in the works for Switch, but it looks like it might not be the only game in the series coming to Nintendo’s console. The original No More Heroes, which launched on the Wii in 2008, might be receiving a port too, according to a new rating.

As noted by Gematsu, the game has been rated for sale in Taiwan for Switch, and appears to be coming from publisher Marvelous Inc. A rating in Taiwan does not absolutely confirm that the game is coming to Switch worldwide, but it certainly suggests that it’s a strong possibility.

Back in 2018, director Goichi Suda expressed a desire to bring both the original No More Heroes and its sequel to Switch, but nothing concrete has ever been announced. Another game starring series protagonist Travis Touchdown, Travis Strikes Again, released for Switch in 2019.

No More Heroes received a PS3 release, subtitles Heroes Paradise. A sequel, No More Heroes 2: Desperate Struggle. released for the Wii in 2010, and unlike the original game, it was never ported anywhere else.

We caught a tiny glimpse of No More Heroes III gameplay back in June, but there’s still a lot we don’t know about the game–including whether it will make its projected 2020 release window.
