The summer State of Play presentation form PlayStation kicked off with the announcement of Lumines Arise . It's a gorgeous puzzle game being made by the same team as Tetris Effect , Enhance, so for the many of us who fell in love that game, this is a banger development from Sony.
The trailer shows the same dynamic blend between block drops, music and visuals that were the hallmarks of Tetris Effect . However, Lumines Arise is ditching the tetriminos for the slightly different box-dropping mechanics of Lumines . Bringing a new take on the core puzzle mechanics should make this feel like a nice blend of fresh and familiar. And considering how well their first go at reimagining a spatial puzzle game went, I have high hopes for this project.
The game is slated for release in fall 2025, but we may get a chance for a sneak peak with both single and multiplayer demos later this summer. It's coming to the PlayStation 5 with optional PlayStation VR2 support for those who want the ultimate immersion experience. (And yes, you really do want that.)

Xiaomi's SU7 Ultra arrives in gaming canon as 'Gran Turismo 7' car
For many, the best chance at feeling the thrill of throttling a Porsche 911 towards top speeds comes on a console: The likes of "Gran Turismo 7" on the PlayStation and "ForzaMotorsport" on the Xbox let players feel the dynamics of hundreds of real-world cars. Now, joining the digital versions of real racetrack-ready Lamborghinis, Porsches and Ferraris is a newcomer in the high-end automotive world, the brand-new flagship electric from a brand better known for making budget smartphones. Xiaomi's luxury SU7 Ultra is joining the slew of models available to "Gran Turismo 7" gamers in the latest update coming to PS4 and PS5, the Chinese manufacturer announced on Saturday. The consumer tech giant, having made a name for itself as China's alternative to Apple, has accelerated its automotive ambitions in recent years with its road-legal Porsche-killing super saloon. In the top version, the four-door SU7 Ultra uses a triple-motor powertrain to deliver 1,138 kW/1,548 hp. The urge allows it to dash to 100 km/h in under 2 seconds, according to the maker, before hitting a top speed of 350 km/h on the straights. Xiaomi's muscle car stands out in the electric segment for its speed, however Gran Turismo has not only added fast cars in the past, and also allows gamers to try out less racetrack-inclined models like Renault's Kangoo van and even Mercedes' military-style truck Unimog.
