First off, Sony dropped a reminder that the rather great rogue-lite Hades is coming to PlayStation on August 13. If you still have yet to play the award-winning title from Supergiant Games, in this dungeon crawler, you will defy the god of the dead as you battle out of the Underworld of Greek myth. To help you along the way, you’ll be wielding the powers and mythic weapons of Olympus, while growing stronger and unraveling more of the story with each unique escape attempt.

Released just over a year ago on PC, Switch, Xbox One, and through Xbox Game Pass, Carrion will finally grace PS4 later this year. Described as a ‘reverse horror’ game, in it, you will stalk and consume those who imprisoned you. As an amorphous creature of unknown origin, your only goal is to “spread fear and panic” throughout the facility where you were imprisoned. You will both grow and evolve as you acquire more devastating abilities on the path to retribution.

In it, you will pilot three ships and free the solar system from the clutches of evil. There’s more information about the game over on the PlatinumGames blog.
