Here is a summary of all the news and announcements from the PlayStation Showcase 2021 event, as well as a video of the entire presentation if you missed it and wish to watch all the footage in its original format:
Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic Remake | Announcement Trailer
The original Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic has remained one of the most celebrated games ever made, and now players can celebrate all over again because the game is being completely remade from the ground up by developer Aspyr, who will be using the latest tech to match the groundbreaking standard of innovation established by the original, all while staying true to its revered story.
Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic Remake will be a console launch exclusive for PlayStation 5.
Project Eve | Discussion Thread
In the not-too-distant future, mankind is expelled from Earth after losing the battle against the invaders called the NA:tives. To win back Earth, the player becomes Eve, the survivor of the paratrooper squad deployed from the Colony, who must fight through powerful enemies with new comrades throughout an adventure in the face of unknown creatures on a desolate, destroyed Earth. As you accompany Eve throughout the game, you get one step closer to the secret hidden in this unusual world. Combat in Eve is deliberate – including attack, defense, and evasion – while remaining fluid and zestful. The only way to survive is to grasp the attack patterns of various enemies and counter with precise timing.
Project Eve will be released exclusively on PlayStation 5.
Tiny Tina's Wonderlands | Gameplay Trailer
See wassup in this new gameplay trailer for Tiny Tina's Wonderlands, a game set in the Borderlands universe set shortly after the events of Tiny Tina's Assault on Dragon Keep DLC for Borderlands 2, but unlike Borderlands, this game takes place in a high-fantasy setting.
