Dragon Ball Xenoverse is an all new fighting game set in the Dragon Ball Z Universe, coming to PS4, PS3, Xbox One and Xbox 360, featuring destructible 3D environments with underwater, air and ground based combat.

As well as taking control of your favorite Dragon Ball Z characters, you’ll also be able to create your own from a choice of four races (Saiyan, Earthling, Majin or Namekian).  Dragon Ball Xenoverse will feature an entirely new story, set across the planet Earth and other Dragon Ball Z locations, including a mysterious new city – the home of your player created character.

Sony’s ambitious game streaming service - Playstation Now - is going into Open Beta tomorrow in North America on PS4.

100 games will be available at the start of the Open Beta, and while Sony did only had a rental only model for the closed beta, it’s a good bet that a subscription model will make an appearance at some point, with the service’s Senior Director Jack Buser recently announcing:

“We’re working diligently to bring a subscription option to gamers to compliment our rental offering for PlayStation Now.  We believe that offering both of these options would provide gamers the freedom to discover and play games in ways that weren’t before possible.”

Playstation Now is an interesting concept, and while while it may not quite match the quality of physical or downloadable games, it still has it’s merits.   If Sony get their pricing right and they have a strong enough infrastructure to support it, Playstation Now will be a welcome addition to Sony’s Playstation brand, especially when it hits Vita and Playstation TV.

Ran out of games to play on your PS4 already?  Fear not, you can take part in the Final Fantasy XIV: A Real Reborn Beta!  The beta starts this weekend, and it’s looking rather gorgeous.

FFXIV had a rocky start when it released originally, but Square Enix have really worked on the game since then, and have created something that really deserves the Final Fantasy moniker.  The PS4 Beta has mouse & keyboard support, streaming support, PS Vita Remote play and looks stunning thanks to the upgraded, next gen graphics.
