Capcom working on dragonhunting game Deep Down for PS4
Yoshinori Ono from Capcom takes the stage and tells us point blank, “I am not talking about Street Fighter V.” Boo! Instead, he gives us a history lesson about Capcom games on PlayStation systems.
And then he announces a brand new game known as Deep Down.
Deep Down is powered by a new engine, Code Name: Panta Rhei. Ono says it an advance over the MT Framework engine that powers most of their games now and it allows Capcom to take game design in new directions. With Deep Down, they’ve decided to go in the “medieval dragon hunter” direction as a knight battles with a dragon in dimly lit cave.
“Conquer Your Fear,” the trailer asks as it concludes in a puff of smoke.

Jonathan Blow’s The Witness will appear exclusively on the PS4
Jonathan Blow will bring The Witness, his first-person abandoned island exploration game, to the PlayStation 4. It’s unknown if The Witness will still be released for the PC as originally announced. Blow promises 25 hours of puzzle-based gameplay that’ll be available exclusively on the PS4.
But I’m not going to lie, it looks a lot like Myst.

Driveclub is Evolution Studios’ PS4 racing game
Evolution Studios is working on a first-person racing game for the PlayStation 4 known as Driveclub.
The game is built around “team-based racing” and is about “driving the very best cars in the greatest locations in the world.” Driveclub will feature asyncronous challenges that can be monitored through a tablet app.
Evolution is recreating the cars with “obsessive love” and the team has been working on the idea behind Driveclub for ten years.
Hopefully, it won’t take that long to learn more about the game.

Guerrilla officially unveils Killzone: Shadow Fall
Herman Hulst, the Managing Director at Guerrilla Games, has introduced the second PlayStation 4 game of tonight’s Meeting 2013, Killzone: Shadow Fall.
The trailer begins as some VSA VIP gets a first-person helicopter, and then walking, tour of Vekta City… Oh no! Bomb! Helghast spies are everywhere!
It’s at this point that the “trailer” segues into a playable first-person section as the VIP guns down a ton of Helghast spies. Eventually, the player grabs onto a hovercraft and Spider-Mans his way across the city hanging on for dear life.
We’ve seen this trick before (remember Killzone 2‘s debut at E3 2005?), but what we’re seeing sure is purty.

Knack is the first official PS4 game
Sony has revealed the first game for the PlayStation 4 during their “Meeting 2013” presentation.
Knack will be directed by Mark Cerny, who is a veteran of the Crash Bandicoot series, among others. The game is in development at Sony Japan Studio and features a cartoony war between humans and orcs. The humans believe they can turn the tide with Knack, a tiny robot that can suck up smaller robots to become something much larger.
Knack, like the PlayStation 4, has no release date yet.

DualShock 4 is everything we thought it would be
Sony has introduced the DualShock 4 controller during their PlayStation 4 reveal and it’s everything the rumors said it would be.
The DualShock 4 will be a major improvement over the SixAxis/DualShock 3 with reduced latency, an improved rumble feature, a headphone jack, a “Share” button for social networking, a front touchpad, and a lightbar on the top of the controller.
The lightbar is “a simpler way to identify players” and it works with a radio bar/3D camera that resembles Microsoft’s Kinect sensor.
More from Sony’s “Meeting 2013” soon.
