I’ll be honest, yesterday’s Sony State of Play has already turned to a blur in my memory. All I recall is a now-familiar absence of Bloodborne and someone, at some point, saying “The path of a stylist is never easy” with a gravitas you usually reserve for warning your headstrong young apprentice off a quest to avenge his father or telling people the stock market has crashed.
It’s the kind of thing that is no doubtwildlypopular, and profoundly mundane to its legions of fans, but which seems to my jaded eyes like an artefact from an alien planet. Honestly? I kind of want to see what the hell it’s all about, so I suppose it’s good news that the game will also come to PC alongside its PS4 and PS5 debut, although no specific release date has been announced. Will I finally become the pretty, peerless stylist I’ve always yearned to be in my heart? My friends, there’s not a power on Earth that can stop me.
Anyway, Nikki isn’t the only Sony State of Play game quietly crossing the border to PC. Wealsogot a look atBallad of Antarayesterday, a new action RPG where you’ll play as multiple characters with their own classes, abilities, and stories. At least one of those characters will spend their time hauling around a child on their back, a young girl whose quest is to “undo the devastation done to this desolate world.”
All in all, not a bad PC haul for a Sony event, which is less and less surprising as the PlayStation maker continues to bet heavily on our platform of choice. Alongside Nikki and Antara, we also got news thatGod of War Ragnarökwill get its PC release in September, and that Sony’s next multiplayer shooter,Concord, will hit god’s own platform in August. I don’t think you can channel magical powers through the cut of a dress in either of those, though, so I forgive you if you tuned the news out.
