Last week Sony showed off some action-packed new PlayStation 4 video games, some for virtual reality, as it defended its crown as the top-selling new-generation console.

The company focused on blockbuster games and intriguing new titles at a press event ahead of the Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3).

“PlayStation is home to all the biggest and best game franchises in the world,” Sony Interactive Entertainment worldwide studios chairman Shawn Layden said during a presentation of video trailers.

The line-up included the first Uncharted game to feature a heroine in place of Nathan Drake, a God of War sequel with a mighty father-son theme, and a pulse-pounding title starring Spiderman.

The event also unveiled a version of the hit fantasy role-playing game Skyrim tailored for play on PlayStation virtual reality gear.

“It’s all about gaming,” Layden said. “Every year, we continue to push the envelope of imagination, storytelling, and technology.”
