Sony finalises PS4 launch titles and prices
UPDATE: Blacklight: Retribution and flOw to miss EU PS4 launch.
UPDATE: Astute readers may have noticed Blacklight: Retribution and flOw don't appear anywhere on this list, despite previously having been announced as launch titles and the former being ready for the US PS4 launch a fortnight ago.
Not to worry, dear readers. There is a delay, but it shouldn't be long. "Both flOw and Blacklight have been subject to brief delays," noted SCEE Blog manager (and former Eurogamer US news editor) Fred Dutton in a comment on the PlayStation Blog. "They should be with you next week, but I will 100 per cent confirm the date as soon as possible."
There is a workaround to this for Blacklight, however. You can access Zombie Studios' free-to-play shooter by setting up a US PSN account. Eurogamer YouTube editor Ian Higton has confirmed this and has even uploaded video of him playing onto his Facebook page.
ORIGINAL STORY: Sony has finalised the European PlayStation 4 launch titles and their prices over on the PlayStation Blog.
