Arguably the best PS4 launch title gets a Pro patch – it runs at native 4K and it matches performance of the 1080p original point for point.

One of the earliest PS4 releases got a Pro patch recently and Digital Foundry dives into the pixel-filled realm of Resogun to find out how the game runs in it’s Pro mode. From the footage, it seems the game runs quite well on 4K and it shows how it’s developers push PS4 Hardware quite far. The fact this still looks great despite being a launch title shows how much effort and care went into Resogun’s graphics.

From the makers of Stick it to the Man, comes another wacky adventure using an creative art style and charming humor. Using possession mechanics and platforming, it seems to be a blend of a 2D action/adventure game with puzzle game design. I liked what I saw and the humor is a big part of that. It feels very close to a cartoon (reminded me of Invader Zim or The Grim Adventures of Billy & Mandy) and that will help gamers connect to the game’s world more.
We will be reporting on this title as further information releases.

Commander Video is running across to Nintendo yet again with the upcoming title Runner3 confirmed for the Switch as a console exclusive. Featuring the iconic gameplay from past titles with some new features, it looks to be the best game of it’s series.

As you may have seen in this morning’s Nintendo Direct, Runner3 is arriving later this year on the Nintendo Switch! We got our start on Nintendo platforms, and we’re incredibly excited to be continuing that legacy with Runner3! It’s going to be a perfect platform for the game in so many ways, which is something we’ll go into more detail about in the near future. In other words, we still have a few surprises in store for you all…
In the meantime, I wanted to go ahead and share the announcement trailer with you all. There’s gameplay footage, freaky cameos, hints at new gameplay features, and more! Pretty fun, right? Our goal for the game is to keep the rhythm-music gameplay of BIT.TRIP RUNNER and Runner2 intact, but throw in a few change-ups and curveballs, just for good measure.

PlayStation Plus has been a service offering quality software for gamers to play across all of Sony’s platforms (PlayStation Vita, PS4, PS3) for a while now, but March seems to be one of it’s best months yet!

Games included for the month are the following.

Tearaway Unfolded (PS4)
Disc Jam (PS4)
Lumo (PS Vita, Cross Buy with PS4)
Under Night In-Birth Exe:Late (PS3)
Earth Defense Force 2025 (PS3)
Severed (PS Vita)

Tearaway Unfolded (PS4), Severed (PS Vita) and Under Night (PS3) are the ‘big’ games for the month for me. Tearaway is a game I loved on the PS Vita and I hoped would be a great experience on the PS4. Now that it’s going to be free for PS4 users for a month, I highly encourage you give this game a shot. While not 1-to-1 like the PS Vita version, it still has the soul of the original Vita release.
Severed and Under Night both offer great experiences as well, with the former offering a unique take on the dungeon crawler while the later being a blend between a visual novel and fighting game.

Ys VIII is confirmed for a western release recently from NIS America but many are wondering how the PS4 version fares. Will it run better or offer extra content? It seems like the answer is yes to both, as the PS4 version will contain extra content while also running at a 60FPS frame rate.
You can see this for yourself with the above video. The game looks quite nice on PS4 and it seems like Ys VIII is a great fit on consoles. We will report more on Ys VIII as further information comes out.
