PlayStation recently sent me the PS1 LEGO set, which is made up of a whopping 1,911 pieces. I’ve never actually built a large LEGO set before; in fact, the last time I dabbled in LEGO was probably making some rubbish house in primary school, 20-something years ago.

Panache Digital Games revealed it'll be debuting on Nintendo consoles with a Switch 2 edition, which I suspect is the main reason behind today's reveal. However, in the process, the developer has also decided to put out native PS5 and Xbox Series X|S versions.

We're yet to really hear anything concrete about Cyberpunk 2 — as it's now officially referred to — but one thing we do know is that it's being shaped by some of CD Projket Red's top talent.

Control Resonant has sold one million copies since its release on 24th September, marking a sturdy start for the Remedy developed action game in a particularly busy schedule.

Unlike Steven E. de Souza’s 1994 take on Street Fighter, I don’t think it’ll take decades for Kitao Sakurai’s effort to find its fans.
