That's right: there's another issue of PLAY Magazine. This time, we throw the spotlight on Assassin's Creed Shadows (then it jumps into some water to hide, breathing through a reed).

Assassin's Creed Shadows
Art director Thierry Dansereau talks about the world of Assassin’s Creed Shadows, from its changing seasons to variable weather, and also the challenge of a Japan setting after fans have demanded it for so long.
Miles Edgeworth takes the stand
Ace Attorney Investigations Collection translates Miles Edgeworth’s complete adventures into English for the first time. Capcom’s Shunsuke Nishida, Kenichi Hashimoto, and Janet Hsu submit the evidence!

Star Wars Outlaws shoots the Reviews section first
Star Wars Outlaws finally blasts onto PS5. And... we didn't really love it. The vibes are solid, but the mix of mechanics in the main story are less so. Don't complain here, though, read the review first!
Plus: Black Myth Wukong, Visions Of Mana, The Mortuary Assistant, our Concord review (yes, really), and more!

Games Editor Oscar Taylor-Kent brings his Official PlayStation Magazine and PLAY knowledge to continue to revel in all things capital 'G' games. A noted PS Vita apologist, he's always got his fingers on many buttons, having also written for Edge, PC Gamer, SFX, Official Xbox Magazine, Kotaku, Waypoint, GamesMaster, PCGamesN, and Xbox, to name a few.
When not knee deep in character action games, he loves to get lost in an epic story across RPGs and visual novels. Recent favourites? Elden Ring: Shadow Of The Erdtree, 1000xResist, and Metaphor: ReFantazio! Rarely focused entirely on the new, the call to return to retro is constant, whether that's a quick evening speed through Sonic 3 & Knuckles or yet another Jakathon through Naughty Dog's PS2 masterpieces.
