These PSN Games Are Ready For Japan’s PlayStation 4 Launch

Famitsu magazine has a list of PlayStation Network titles confirmed for the PlayStation 4 launch in Japan.

That list looks just about the same as North America's launch list. I'm glad SCEJ didn't put half a dozen other titles on their "official list" like the original Western launch had, only for most of them to become delayed on the day the system launched.

The only game that was delayed was Driveclub.

@Below exactly Outside of DC Sony had nothing to do with those delays.

And Watchdogs which annoyed quite a few people. Oh wait, PSN titles.

Are you delusional? I wasn't talking about retail titles, and this article has nothing to do with retail titles. There were plenty of PSN titles that were promised for launch, only to be delayed at the last moment for no explained reason.

Tiny Brains, Pinball Arcade, and Doki Doki Universe were supposed to be out at launch, only to get pushed back several weeks with little notice. Does Basement Crawl sound familiar? That was promoted as a launch title, only to still be MIA. Awesomenauts? Delayed a few days before launch, and still not out.

Counterspy, Divekick, Hohokum, and some more I likely forgot about were also widely anticipated launch titles, yet we're still waiting for release dates for those, too.

And the one that stings the most for me is War Thunder, which was touted as a great F2P launch title for the system, and curiously was held back at the last second (but released in Europe), and is still awaiting "approval" for release here in NA.

Go ahead and do your research if you don't believe me. Sites like PlayStation LifeStyle and Joystiq have these titles listed in articles previous to the launch of the PS4 as anticipated release day titles, and some of the lists still show them on there-- I'm not making any of this up. You should consider what you're replying to before blindly spewing out puerile defensive drivel at others.

Thanks, Caseh, for realizing we were talking about PSN titles... you know, which is in the title of the article and all that. Some people just don't bother to read what's right in front of their faces, and unfortunately, it leads to most of the terrible articles floating around the front page of N4G and the commenters that blindly promote them.

Japanese love creepy horror films, I recon outlast would be a big hit over there.

No resogun?

They must want to give up more time enjoying our high scores till those insanely good japanese "bullet hell" game players come through and annihilate them. lol

Really is strange not to see it there though. Not like it has a ton of audio and text to translate so that's really surprising. :/

It's there, and due on launch day.
