‘Arizona Sunshine’ Lurches Onto PlayStation VR
Fans of Jaywalker Interactive’s Arizona Sunshine will now have reason to move to PlayStation VR, as today the game is now available for the platform. Previously released last year for SteamVR and the Oculus Rift, the game went on to sell more that $1.4 million in its first month after release, and also snagged the VR Game Of The Year award from UploadVR.
For those who’ve never played the game, Arizona Sunshine has you exploring the post-apocalyptic southwest, searching for clues about other survivors and battling the undead along the way. You can also join up with a friend in co-op multiplayer, or pull in three of your friends to battle the walking dead in an endless Horde mode. With the port, Jaywalker Interactive promises “next-level zombie mutilation.” Apparently, that translates into a ton of realistic physics and particle effect systems.
If you’re keen, you can pick up the Arizona Sunshine Launch Edition, which will be 10% off through July 4th, and will come with a free PS4 theme. It also can take advantage of the PS4 Pro’s extra power, and can be used with Sony’s aim controller. For more info on the game, hit up its official site.

One of Clive Barker’s Final Convention Appearances Will Be at New Jersey’s Monster Mania in August
We told you earlier this month that horror legend Clive Barker is leaving the convention scene behind to focus entirely on his writing, with various upcoming projects in the works.
A series of final appearances from Barker will begin at Days of the Dead Chicago this month, and we’ve learned Barker will also be coming to Monster Mania in New Jersey.
Clive Barker will be signing at Monster Mania 59 in Cherry Hill, New Jersey, which runs from August 2 – August 4, 2024. Stay tuned for more info from the convention.
Barker’s official statement earlier this month explained, “… it’s time to focus entirely on writing. I’m not stopping public events because I’ve lost delight in meeting you all over the years. I’m as passionate as ever about sharing my imagination with readers and moviegoers around the world. In the very room where I’m writing these words, I have the manuscripts for a very large number of projects (Thirty-one of them), some very close to completion, others still telling themselves. There are some wild projects in this collection of works, whether close to finished or done. There are also stories that you all knew I would be finishing.”
“Abarat IV and V are amongst the books at my feet,” he continued. “So is the Third and final book of The Art and the sequel to The Thief of Always. There are also return visits to characters and mythologies you may have thought I would never return to.
“I hope I am still able to surprise you in the decades ahead.”
