Watch Tons of PS5 Gameplay: Astro's PlayRoom, Godfall, Devil May Cry 5, & Balan Wolderworld

Today Sony Interactive Entertainment has allowed a group of Japanese YouTubers to showcase what's basically the first extended PS5 gameplay.

[RaidenBlack]

We've seen all of these already to some extent 🤦🏻‍♂️.
I thought they were going to show something totally new ...

[Abriael]

You most certainly have not seen extended gameplay of any of these games running on PS5 driven by people that aren't developers making trailers.

[affrogamer]

I was expecting to see the UI smh

[RaidenBlack]

Many were expecting actually (Me included) ...

[Shikoku]

The UI leaks like 2 days ago

https://www.reddit.com/r/PS...

[Nitrowolf2]

@shikoku that's not a UI leak, that s a boot up

[Bathyj]

Why would you have thought that?

[RaidenBlack]

Is it wrong to have expectations?
Well, you know ... an event organized by Sony, you do expect something new, right?

[Bathyj]

It just YouTubers, not an event. They are not going to announce new games or suddenly show Horizon or God of War gameplay.

If you want to expect anything they haven't shown before, you going to be disappointed. This is simply for people in the wild to get some hands on. If anything I would expect the UI or a closer look at the box. That's about the best we can expect.

[Shane Kim]

Because Raiden is an xbox fanboy. Why don't you lurk around in the xbox articles instead?

[RaidenBlack]

@Bathyj
I wasn't talking about God of War gameplay, lol. Just ... you know, Youtubers getting hands-on with the console unit.
Picking it up, check the stand, the heft, show the UI, the game caching ... you know, a bit more ... personal insight?

@Shane_Kim
So, If a member comments here, that she/he's disappointed with something then (by your deduction prowess) the user is bound to be a fanboy/girl of the rival platform?
So if the user is disappointed with a Nintendo direct, what fanboy/girl does that make, the said member, by your logic?

[lazyboyblue]

Dude you offended @Abriael I think? Some How?

[RaidenBlack]

Why would I offend?
It was just a minor honest opinion ... that's all.

[porkChop]

They can only show what Sony allows them to. They've all signed agreements.

[waverider]

Dude wrong console. This is showing new games...

[King_Noctis]

New game? What new game was announced?

[I_am_Batman]

Games are obviously not the problem with Playstation. People want to see OS features, a detailed breakdown of backwards compatibility, UI, improvements to the Storefront and the teardown that has been promised in March. Most of these things should've been previewed before the preorders start in my opinion.

I'm hyped about the PS5, but Sony's communication has been subpar to say the least. I'm definitely not a fan of the drip-feeding strategy.

[Muzikguy]

Astro's Playroom looks like a lot of fun

[potatoseal]

Once you DIE, near instant load times to get you back in the action. Check out Godfall.

Once you die in Demon's Souls, you'll only have to wait a second to get back in the action I bet.

PS5's SSD for the win.

[Bathyj]

19.20 if anyone's curious.

[potatoseal]

If they didn't make you press O, it would have been so much quicker. Makes me excited for Demon's Souls and games like HITMAN 3

[Bathyj]

Yeah good point. It would have been near instant. To the point where I wonder if it was edited.

[1Victor]

Gone will be the days of a smoke break or going to take a pee break while the game load 😂

[Muzikguy]

Kind of sucks I used those for those reasons, bathroom break or a beer run. Now I guess I'll just be pausing more

[Knushwood Butt]

I can't stand Hikakin.

[SullysCigar]

Never seen him before, but he's exhausting like a Japanese Greg Miller pumped full of E numbers!

[Bathyj]

So jealous Japanese Elton John got a PS5 before me.

[Ben Dover]

Is that guy retarded? Serious question..

[potatoseal]

GODFALL looks good. I don't care what anyone says
https://www.youtube.com/wat...

[Shane Kim]

It actually looks really good now. Hope it's not a repetitive button masher though.

[potatoseal]

Hmmm, I want lots of challenge. Lots of Loot and yes lots of variety. We'll see when it launches

[jukins]

Looters shooter or lottery brawlers at some point in the gameplay become repetitive button masher shooters because thats the gameplay loop. Usually button mash through easy mobs until you get to tougher mid bosses and bosses that you have to put some effort into

[Bathyj]

Since that trailer came out the game looks fantastic but I'm curious that it looks darker like it's at night. It makes the palate look so much more vibrant, but all the gameplay we've seen is daytime and a lot brighter and therefor not as striking.

I wonder what the majority of game will actually look like.

[morganfell]

Every time a new trailer has premiered the dev team has upped the ante. Every time.

[lazyboyblue]

You won't what I say.

[Muzikguy]

It may, but the fact it's always online ruins it

[King_Noctis]

The game is always-online. That is gonna be a problem for some.

[RaiderNation]

That guy looks like Japan's equivalent of Greg Miller. LOL

[SullysCigar]

Now I feel bad seeing you'd already said that when I just wrote it! It's his energy too lol

[Agito1987]

That thing is HUGE

[Bathyj]

Phrasing

[Thunder_G0d_Bane]

That’s what she said 😊 haha sorry you made that impossible to resist.

[OB1Biker]

There are also a lot of giant people with giant hands around it.
Scary!

[Popsicle]

Does the thought of having people blow on your control seem kind of gross or is it just me? Idea seems cool but in practice 🤮

[Bathyj]

In fairness it was designed before covid..

[boing1]

Maybe don't allow them then? Letting other people to even touch your controller isn't wise IMO. Or buy a spare and have it for yourself only. I did, just because of COVID. My kid is inviting friends constantly but my personal controller is locked in the drawer. Only I can use it. Weird times, huh? We have to adapt.

[sprinterboy]

I remember getting warts from a old school friend from sweaty controllers back in the 90s.
I've always had wet wipes if friends ever come over.

[sprinterboy]

You can blow down the ps4 dualshock too but only tearaway ever used it.

[SullysCigar]

Astro looks amazing - so inventive and happy!

It makes Mario look like a brooding emo lol

[boing1]

PSVR version is one of the best platformers I've ever played. Very innovative.

[arkard]

So YouTube personalities are annoying in all languages. Good to know

[RememberThe357]

Why though?

[sprinterboy]

I hope people stop becoming Patreons with yt gaming channals.
KFG, IGN etc are in bed with each other and literally say the same things and just copy the top 4 N4G top stories of the day and literally just read the article you read 12 hrs before and don't even go in depth and bless on KFG is on playstation xoxo but is literally a xbox fan.

[Relientk77]

I'm so excited for Astrobot and Balan Wonderworld! 3D Platformers looking strong on PS5. Also Ratchet & Clank is coming as well.

[Silly gameAr]

You can blow into the controller and it affects gameplay? That's pretty damn cool.

[boing1]

Yeah. DualSense is full of next-gen tech. Hapticks are crazy. Can't wait to have my own.

[ElementX]

Nintendo did that years ago, it just picks up the noise

[Silly gameAr]

Well, I didn't know Nintendo did it first, and honestly, I don't really care. I just thought that was cool. I don't care who did what first.

[sprinterboy]

Ps4 dualshock also does it with tearaway from Mm, that was literally the only game that used it so my guess is nobody will use it for DualSense either which is a shame

[MatrixxGT]

Nintendo had that on some DS games. These things hardly ever make a difference outside some early first party games and always seem tacked into the game because they had to. Like the rear touch on Vita or even the touch pad on DS4, just became a big map button.
Hopefully things will be different but it’s really up to the devs, Sony’s provided the tools.

[sprinterboy]

Tearaway from Mm was the only game in 6 years to use it on ps4 dualshock.

[sprinterboy]

Ps4 dualshock has the same feature but only tearaway ever used it so safe to say nobody will really use it again on duel sense which is a shame cause it worked great in tearaway.

[Rhythmattic]

Maybe of topic, but i loved in london heist (VR game) when you were in the Pub (bar) you grabbed a cigar, lit it, and you could put in in your mouth, and the inbuilt mic picked up you dragging on it, and when you exhaled it blew smoke out .... Such a great little moment for me,,,

[Aussiesummer]

Whats with Asians dying their hair ORANGE?!

[chicken_in_the_corn]

Shame it's not a 4k video

[jukins]

Kinda funny seeing everyone expecting the ui. The fact that this was for Japanese audiences should've indicated nothing huge would be revealed. Although sony is a Japanese company they make their noise in the west.

This was just sony basically throwing a bone to its Japanese audience. After having several shows for the western audience

[Muzikguy]

People are just hoping to see it. I know I am. How close to launch before we even get to see the UI of the PS5?

Also, and I have to do this because it's apparently a necessity on this page, "PS4 did this as well but only Tearaway by Mm used it".

[jukins]

Yea I expect sony to specifically say when we'll get a ui and breakdown presentation. I'm kinda hoping that somehow someway ill get to experience it myself first hand. Yea I know stay off the net if only it were that easy because if see something new next gen related im clicking it
