News | Sony to integrate Discord voice chat 'in the coming months'
PlayStation consoles are reportedly getting integrated voice chat via Discord sometime in the "coming months."
Tom Henderson of Exputer reports this based on “various sources”, including a source who also correctly predicted the arrival of a ‘pro controller’ for the PlayStation 5 (the DualSense Edge).
The integration is reportedly coming with version 7.00 of the system software, while version 6.00 is expected in mid-September. Henderson says the Discord integration in PlayStations has been tested in recent months and progress is “going very well”.
Sony announced a partnership with Discord last May. As a result, Discord can be integrated into PlayStation consoles, allowing players to communicate with their friends via the consoles without having to download Discord for mobile or PC, for example. Henderson reports that the integration should take place “by the end of the year.”
News | Accessibility options for The Last of Us: Part 1 shown
Naughty Dog has released a new trailer for The Last of Us: Part 1 that focuses on accessibility options.
In addition, the company takes a closer look at the accessibility options in the game on PlayStation Blog. At The Game Awards in 2020, Naughty Dog already won an award for innovation in accessibility for The Last of Us: Part 2 and many options have been included in this remake.
One of the biggest new features is movie audio descriptions, which can be turned on for all available languages in the game. It is also possible to have the dialogues played through the speakers of the DualSense controller. Then special haptic feedback is also provided by the controller, allowing a deaf player to “feel how a sentence is being pronounced”.
In addition to the accessibility options trailer, a video has also been released comparing a Boston location from the game to the original version. Both videos can be viewed below.
The Last of Us: Part 1 can be played in either native 4k at 30 fps or dynamic 4k at 60 fps and uses various DualSense options such as haptic feedback, the adaptive triggers and 3D audio.
The game has been completely rebuilt to take advantage of improved graphics. That provides much more detail – bullets can destroy concrete – and a seamless transition between movies and gameplay. The animation of characters has also been made much more realistic and the artificial intelligence of enemies has improved.
There are also several additional options in the game, including more than 60 accessibility options, new unlockable clothes for Joel and Ellie, a ‘permadeath’ mode and a mode for speedrunners.
The Last of Us: Part 1 will be released on September 2 for PlayStation 5. The game should also come to PC sometime after that.

In the latest beta test of the PlayStation 5 system software, folders have been added to the console.
The beta test, which will be available today to a select group of PS5 gamers in the US, Canada, Japan, UK, France and Germany, introduces ‘Gamelists’. You can now create a so-called ‘game list’ in the ‘Your Collection’ tab at Game Library and add games to it. One can add a total of one hundred games per list and create fifteen lists.
Furthermore, the update ensures that 1440P HMDI video output is supported, allowing people who game on specific televisions and game monitors to select new graphics settings for games that support it. Finally, the update also makes it possible to compare 3D audio and stereo sound before choosing one.
More details about the update, including other minor changes, can be found here.
According to Sony, all of the above features should be rolled out to all PlayStation 5 users in the course of this year.

News | Sony announces PlayStation Stars loyalty program
Sony has announced the PlayStation Stars loyalty program. Points earned can be used to purchase PlayStation Store credit, among other things
The company did so via PlayStation Blog. With PlayStation Stars, players can unlock rewards by completing a variety of games and participating in activities.
In that sense, PlayStation Stars will be comparable to the existing Xbox Rewards. For example, people can earn points by playing a game at least once a month, by unlocking certain Trophies, by being the first in a region to unlock a Platinum Trophy, and by purchasing games or other products through the PlayStation Store.
Points earned can be redeemed in a dedicated online store. This will unlock credit for the PlayStation Store again. There are also new rewards called Digital Collectibles. It is a kind of digital figurines based on game characters that can be collected, but Sony emphasizes that it is not about NFTs. “They can’t be traded or sold. They don’t use blockchain technology,” Grace Chen, vice president of network advertising, told The Washington Post.
PlayStation Stars should be rolled out in phases by region sometime later this year, although it is not yet clear which regions will participate first.
News | Blade Runner: Enhanced Edition launches today
Blade Runner: Enhanced Edition should be released on PC and consoles sometime today. The game is being released by the creators of the upcoming System Shock remake.
The game should be available for around $10 on PC, Switch, and PlayStation and Xbox consoles. The game is developed by Nightdive Studios, the developer of the upcoming System Shock remake and several remasters such as Doom 64 and the Turok games.
The classic point-and-click adventure Blade Runner from Westwood Studios was released in 1997. This was remarkable, as the film on which the game is based was released way back in 1982. Instead of an easy copy of the film, players became a partially randomized adventure. served. Characters had a real-time schedule that they followed and there were different endings as well.
This remaster has been graphically improved. For example, the game runs on the KEX engine, the same engine used for System Shock: Enhanced Edition and the Turok games. Players can expect improved graphics, animations and cutscenes, as well as the ability to customize the controls and use controllers. The game runs at 60 fps (instead of 15 fps in the original version).
News | New No Man's Sky Update Adds Space Whale

If you die, you have to start over. However, you can collect upgrades and experience the adventure in co-op.
Players can unlock various rewards while playing this seventh expedition. There are the WhaleStalker Cloak, the Temporal Starship Trail and finally the Leviathan, a living ship that players can use in the game.
News | PlayStation 5 Version of Hogwarts Legacy Featured
Sony and Warner Bros. have released a new trailer for Hogwarts Legacy. Here are the benefits of the PlayStation 5 version highlighted and explained.
The PlayStation Blog also goes into more detail about the benefits, which in some cases also apply to the Xbox Series X version – although this is logically not mentioned on the PlayStation site.
For example, the game runs on current gen consoles in a 4k resolution. One can choose between Fidelity and Performance modes – in other words, between a higher frame rate and more visual details. More information about the modes is not given in the blog post. Furthermore, the SSD drives in the consoles ensure that there are very fast loading times.
There are also several unique features for the game available on PlayStation 5. For example, the Tempest 3D AudioTech ensures that audio details are even more audible and it is clear from which direction they come. Logically, there are also Activity Cards on PlayStation 5. Furthermore, the DualSense controller needs to become “an extension of your magic staff” in the game. The haptic feedback should give the feeling of actually casting spells from the wand. The controller even lights up depending on the training players have chosen.
In Hogwarts Legacy, players control a fifth-year Hogwarts student. They explore the school and the world around it, learn spells, brew magic potions and fly on a broomstick. The game is set around 1800, so characters from the books and movies are few and far between, except for some cameos.
The game will be released sometime later this year on PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X and S, Xbox One, PC, and Nintendo Switch.
