UPDATE:

Also, there’s a buy one get one deal going on until April 11th through the Play Collective as well.

A new name for PlayStation Store game promotions is upon us in the form of Play Collective. Digital Games Business Manager of Sony Interactive Entertainment America, Brian Fujimoto, announced the Play Collective today over on the PlayStation Blog. The special promotion event will include different sales and campaigns for digital games and pre-orders. Turns out the very first deal will be a 20% discount off of pre-orders for six different titles starting March 21st.

First up to the plate is actually a new announcement altogether. Everything is a mysterious game that focuses on the “quiet explosion of life going on all around us.” It will feature one million+ years of gameplay (whatever that means), a rich soundtrack, and thousands of playable characters. Its creator is Irish artist, David O’Reilly, and narrated by philosopher, Alan Watts.

Rain World is the latest endeavor by Adult Swim Games and puts you in the shoes of a slugcat. Our protagonist gets separated from his family after a flood and needs to find them. However, you’ll deal with terrifying enemies and torrential downpours that can literally kill you.

We don’t think the next entry in the sale really needs an introduction. PaRappa The Rapper Remastered has been confirmed for a PlayStation 4 release on April 4. The remaster will have high-resolution graphics with smoother lines and textures, CD quality sound, trophy support, and completely brand new features.

Cosmic Star Heroine is an old-school, sci-fi RPG. You play as super-spy, Alyssa L’Salle, as you explore the Zevanii System, its planets, and battle alien machine monstrosities that hides a threat to all life. The 16-bit presentation will feature turn-based combat, eleven playable characters, and three distinct planets to explore. It will launch on April 11th.

Full Throttle Remastered takes the classic LucasArt title from 1995 and introduces new hand-drawn artwork, updated audio, and the ability to switch between classic and remastered settings. The game will also come with a commentary track from the original creators. Release date is April 18th.

Finally, What Remains of Edith Finch will round off the current set of titles in the Play Collective. It launches on April 25th and tells a collection of strange tales about a family in Washington state. You control Edith as she explores the huge Finch mansion in an effort to know why she’s the last member of her family alive. The title is developed by The Unfinished Swan developers, Giant Sparrow.

So remember to pre-order the select titles before their release date in order to utilize the Play Collective’s deals. Will you be purchasing any of the aforementioned games on the PlayStation Store? Let us know which ones in the comments below.

Recruited Since Last Month: More Than Eight Million Helldivers 2 Players

The relentless force of Helldivers 2 shows no signs of slowing down, as recent reports indicate that Arrowhead Games Studios, the Swedish developer behind the game, has sold over eight million copies since its release on both PS5 and PC just last month.

According to TD Cowen analyst Doug Creutz (thanks, VGC), who spoke to Bloomberg, it is believed that the game has exceeded expectations in terms of performance. It’s amazing how word-of-mouth buzz and the unconventional guerilla marketing strategy keep driving up recruitment numbers week after week. Arrowhead’s studio motto, “A game for everyone is a game for no one,” reflects their unwavering commitment to their unique internal design philosophy.

It appears that the PC community has recently surpassed the PlayStation fanbase in terms of player numbers and platform preference. However, thanks to crossplay, both groups continue to benefit from the growing popularity of gaming. Although it’s not particularly thrilling to see yet another service game achieve rapid success, the hardcore nature of Helldivers 2 fills us with optimism for Sony’s ongoing live gaming endeavors. We anticipate dedicating ourselves to the defense of Super Earth for many years to come.

What are your thoughts on Creutz’s sales estimate? Does it come as a surprise to you? Does it exceed or fall short of your expectations? Have you noticed any changes in your level of enthusiasm for the Democratic Party? Has it waned or grown stronger? We would greatly appreciate your feedback in the comments section below.

E3 is long gone, but that doesn’t mean we won’t have any exciting video game events this summer.

In a recent tweet, Keighley assured his followers that a large number of fans will be present at the event, both in person and online.

If you’re thinking of going, tickets will be available for purchase starting on Tuesday, May 7th. It’s definitely an event worth noting on your calendar. So, what are your expectations for this year’s Summer Game Fest? Feel free to share your dream announcements in the comments section below.
