Now that we know both Killzone: Shadow Fall and Knack will definitely be releasing alongside the PS4 next month, we can rest a little easier, and you can even check out Knack in demo stations rolling out across the United States (with Canada coming soon). - PSLS
Sony might be gearing to launch a new Knack game, a franchise that has had received quite a polarizing reception from the community.
While I did actually enjoy the Knack games, and found the reviews overly harsh, I do feel 2 games were enough unless the series was revitalized in a major way. For me, that would be a new Knack game for PSVR2. With the increased hardware power, those HD particle effects would be pretty awesome, surrounding the player at times. Astrobot proved that platformers can be amazing in VR, so let's hope that's where they're going with this, if real!
Translation: the next best game of all time is coming soon! Show me the money, Knack!
Surprised to see them continue this but considering how invested they are in the IP and the wider appeal, there must be some commercial sense to continue with a 3rd title

Loved locoroco and legend of dragoon. Never played gravity rush or even ape escape but I heard good things.
Beyond the memes, Knack is just a solid platformer that deserves a new home on the PlayStation 5.
I'd rather they make a new platformer IP. With Sackboy and Astro's Playroom PS5 looks very good for the platformer genre so far
I think it would be great if they rebooted it, keep the visual style, but change the tone of the story and voices to match. This game looks like it should have a semi mute protagonist with a silly professor and his rebellious apprentice. Instead knack sounds like a brainwashed soldier, the professor like an angry divorced dad, and the kid is such an average joe. And the story takes itself way too seriously, it's so clashing with it's art style
It's time for Ape Escape PS5, Dual Sense Enhanced.
Give me that first. Then whatever.
It's really not.
The first really didn't deserve a sequel, and the sequel, itself, was nothing special.
Again with the no demos.... Sorry sony but i cant buy a game without testing it myself. No ps4 kiosks where i live. Why cant they upload the demo for everyone? I say the same for ms if their ganes wont have demos.
I prefer to try games I am on the fence about first... I will read some reviews to decide when it launches.
My advice to Sony, if you cant get it to 60fps consistently then lock it at 30fps for the whole game. Varying between 30fps and 60fps would seemingly make the game feel less smooth with the uptick in frames. I would rather see games locked at 30 then jumping between 30 and 60fps.
A new console launch should have as many demos as possible.
You want to show off your new tech and what your new gen game can do, most people only buy 1 or 2 games at launch due to the game prices and scarcity so its the perfect time to strut your stuff and make people want to part with their cash for your game in particular.
Can people tell 30fps vs 60fps?
