Cities: Skylines PlayStation 4 Edition Announcement PS4 Trailer
You're in charge of a growing city in Cities: Skylines PlayStation 4 Edition where gamers can design, build and manage the city of your dreams from a simple town to a bustling metropolitan hub with the official announcement PS4 trailer video and details below!
Also included is its "After Dark" expansion, and to quote from Paradox Interactive Producer Niklas Lundstrom on their upcoming release:
The team here at Paradox Interactive is delighted to announce that your demands have now become official city policy: we're bringing our award-winning city-builder to your favorite console in Cities: Skylines – PlayStation 4 Edition!
At Paradox, strategy and creativity are the core of what we do, and judging from the amount of requests we've had to release Cities: Skylines on the PS4, they're passions shared by this community as well.
We've been hard at work making sure the roads are smooth and the turbines are tuned, so that everything is ready when you build your first city block — but rest assured, the game is looking and playing great on a controller. When you pull back and watch the sun rise over the bustling city you've built from the ground up, it's going to look truly inspiring on the big screen.
There's more to Cities: Skylines, of course, than just zoning districts and placing your roads into a neat grid (or using them to spell out your name). Want to build the all-green-energy and self-sustaining town of the future? Have a diabolical plan to build a dam across the river and funnel wastewater into your tourism district?
We've even seen an entire town of services and infrastructure built around just one house! Cities: Skylines is a game all about setting up plans and policies to create a metropolis that’s uniquely your own, and we can't wait to see what PlayStation players are capable of.
When the game arrives later this year, you'll get not only a controller-friendly version of Cities: Skylines, but also the tourism and nightlife features from the After Dark expansion. Your thriving community will need some places to unwind once the sun goes down, after all. Please, though, make sure you put in enough taxis and trains to let them get home safely!
We'll have more info soon on the launch, and then you'll be able to find the game in the store of your choice, or download it...

Uncharted: The Lost Legacy E3 2017 Extended PS4 Gameplay Video
Just over a week ago we saw an Uncharted: The Lost Legacy PS4 Story Trailer, and today Naughty Dog is back with an Uncharted: The Lost Legacy E3 Extended PS4 Gameplay video! 
Arriving on PlayStation 4 this August 22nd, Chloe Frazer and Nadine Ross must venture deep into the Western Ghats mountains, discover the lost cities of the Hoysala Empire and face a ruthless warmonger Asav in order to find an ancient Indian artifact.
Here's more from Naughty Dog Senior Communications Manager Scott Lowe, to quote:
Last week at E3, we were thrilled to share more of what we’ve been working on in Uncharted: The Lost Legacy, including the debut of our new story trailer and a never-before-seen gameplay demo at the PlayStation booth.
However, we wanted to make sure that everyone who couldn’t make it to the show had their chance to see it by posting it online.
The demo picks up after Chloe and Nadine have recovered a critical clue to finding the golden Tusk of Ganesh—an invaluable ancient artifact–and must navigate through the overgrown ruins of the long, lost Hoysala Empire. However, their paths soon cross with Asav, our new antagonist revealed in the E3 story trailer.
Asav is a ruthless warmonger that’s also out for the Tusk and will stop at nothing to ensure he gets to it first. This level is also a testament to the beauty of India’s Western Ghats and just a small taste of the environments you’ll be exploring on August 22.
Alongside the new gameplay demo, today we also released our latest DLC update to Uncharted 4 Multiplayer and Survival, which will also be included with Uncharted: The Lost Legacy at launch.
The update adds two new weapons, three new Survival boosters, over 60 new character skins and vanity items, 13 new taunts, and more. The update also makes Classic Mode a permanent gametype and a new mode for Ranked play: King of the Hill.
