Sony just capped off a big sale on the PlayStation Store, and it’s already kicked off another with a bunch of deals on PS4 games and a bunch more. The August Savings sale lasts until September 3 at 8 AM Pacific.

The discounted PS4 games include Injustice 2: Legendary Edition ($30), Middle-earth: Shadow of War – Definitive Edition ($30), and Dying Light ($14), as well as Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 – Zombie Chronicles Edition ($24), Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney Trilogy ($20), and BioShock: The Collection ($15). XCOM 2 ($15) is also on sale, in addition to its expansion War of the Chosen ($16).

Yakuza 0 ($12) is another great game that sees a discount, though it’s important to note that you can get Yakuza 0, Yakuza Kiwami, and Yakuza Kiwami 2 in a newly released bundle. The Yakuza Origins Digital Bundle costs $50. That’s not a sale price either. It’s a great deal, considering Yakuza Kiwami 2 itself currently costs $50.

There are also a couple PS3 games discounted including GRID Autosport ($7), Risen 3: Titan Lords – Complete Edition ($8), and The Walking Dead ($10). And if you’re wondering about the Vita: yes, there are discounts for Sony’s handheld. Danganronpa Another Episode: Ultra Despair Girls ($15) and Danganronpa V3: Killing Harmony ($24) are both on sale, as well as Zero Escape: The Nonary Games ($12) and Zero Escape: Zero Time Dilemma ($12).

You can see a list of some of our favourites from this sale in the list below.

George R. R.. Martin has opened up about his work on the final two books in the A Song of Ice and Fire series, which Game of Thrones is an adaptation of.

In an interview with The Guardian, Martin spoke about The Winds of Winter and A Dream of Spring, the final two books in his series, neither of which has a set release date yet (although Martin has previously hinted at a 2020 release). Although he refused to comment on when the sixth book would arrive (or what he thought of the controversial finale to the Game of Thrones television series), he was open about how the end of the series has been freeing for him.

In the lead up to season 6, when the show officially overtook the books, Martin felt that the pressure was impeding his work: “I don’t think it was very good for me, because the very thing that should have speeded me up actually slowed me down.” But things feel different now that the show is over. “But having the show finish is freeing, because I’m at my own pace now. I have good days and I have bad days and the stress is far less, although it’s still there.”

He was also clear on the fact that the ending of the series hasn’t changed how his books will end, despite the finale being poorly received by many fans. “It doesn’t change anything at all… As Rick Nelson says in Garden Party, one of my favourite songs, you can’t please everybody, so you’ve got to please yourself.” He has previously said that the book series ending might differ from the show, though. He spoke about how his understanding of the world in his books, which he started writing in 1991, has not been changed by the series. “For the average viewer, and I recognise this, Tyrion Lannister will always be Peter Dinklage from this point forward. But it did not work that way for me.”

Reflecting on some moments from the history of the show, Martin is very proud of the book readers who did not spoil the twist of the Red Wedding, and enjoyed watching reaction videos. “Suddenly, there were videos all over the internet of people reacting to the Red Wedding, all set up by their relatives who wanted to capture the grief and shock of their husbands, wives, siblings… Has that ever happened in the history of television? Not as far as I know.”

Martin is also currently involved in the Game of Thrones prequel projects in development at HBO.

eFootball PES 2020 will once again be the home of the UEFA license. FIFA 19 scored the exclusive rights to UEFA last year, but Konami has now announced that the next game in the PES series will be the official UEFA EURO 2020 videogame, as was previously the case from November 2008 until April 2018.

The exclusive partnership deal means that a free downloadable content pack will be released during the second quarter of 2020, featuring the national teams’ kits, crests and players before the tournament’s June start. The game will also feature all the national teams at launch. PES has also snatched the rights to both Juventus and Atlético River Plate away from FIFA 20 this year; this, coupled with the name change (the ‘eFootball’ is new) indicates that this will be an important PES release. Konami is also planning an esports tournament, the UEFA eEURO 2020 tournament, which will culminate in an event held in London before the finals of the UEFA EURO 2020 tournament.

The press release announcing this news included a message from Guy Laurent-Epstein, the marketing director of UEFA Events SA: “We are very pleased to continue and extend our working partnership with KONAMI. UEFA EURO 2020 provides an opportunity to build an even closer working relationship, allowing us to activate it in new and exciting ways, and to engage with our mutual fans around the world.” Jonah Lygaard, the senior director of brand and business development at Konami, also had this to say: “Our teams have pulled out all the stops to secure the biggest and best licenses possible for eFootball PES 2020; quality licenses that match the level we set each year when it comes to gameplay. The partnership with UEFA and the EURO 2020 tournament is a big win for our community and new users who look for fresh content throughout the year.”

eFootball PES 2020 will release on September 10 for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC.
