Sony Releases Full List of Upcoming Games For PS4, PS3 and PS Vita
Sony has put together a mammoth list detailing 2015's upcoming games for PS4, PS3 and PS Vita. Covering everything from AAA blockbusters to experimental indie titles, the upcoming games list shows the tremendous support developers have planned for Sony's gaming ecosystem.
Originally posted on the official PlayStation Blog, the list breaks down games by platform and details which upcoming games are available now, which have confirmed release dates for 2015 and which don't. Sony notes that dates can and will shift due to changes in development schedules, but the list represents gamers' best official look at the platform holders' upcoming slate.
As Gamespot notes, the PS4 dominates the upcoming games list with 232 titles. The PS3 and PS Vita, both older platforms, put in a decent showing, with 72 and 79 titles, respectively. Standout PS4 titles with a confirmed release date include:
- "The Order: 1886" - A gritty third person shooter set in an alternate history vision of Victorian-era London. The game sees players take on the role of Galahad, one of a member of ancient knights sworn to defend mankind against a monstrous age-old foe. "The Order: 1886" is slated for release on Feb. 20.
- "DmC: Devil May Cry Definitive Edition" - A remaster of 2013's reboot of the "Devil May Cry" franchise. Developed by Ninja Theory, the remaster features a resolution bump to 1080p and a frame rate boost to 60fps. "DmC: Devil May Cry Definitive Edition" will be released on March 10.

It's worth noting that though this list is extensive, it naturally doesn't cover games that have not been officially announced yet. "There may be some secrets out there. Maybe we’ll announce some new games this year, maybe someone else will, who knows?" hosts of the PlayStation Blogcast teased in their Feb. 12 episode. It's best watch out for more updates soon.
