Sony has given an official date for the redesign of the Playstation Network Store, and it’s down for the 15^th of April. The remodel will dramatically change the look and layout, therefore allowing for easier access and use. The new guise will allow the content to be listed via different sections, thus allowing for each item to be found in a simpler manner. The reasoning behind the radical transformation comes from a survey that Sony conducted last year, in an effort to find out what their users wanted. Queue the response that many people commented “that the PS Store was at times hard to navigate and locate certain items.”

We’ve got some news for you Everquest’ers. Everquest II is getting its 44^th game update and in it you’ll be able to delve into the Shard of Hate which is for high level raid groups. The dungeon is accessible from Neriak or the Nektulos Forest. Also in the update is two new armoured mounts, and new items to customize your player housing. The update should have gone live yesterday and the Shard of Hate should be accessible for a limited time, until Tuesday 13^th May in fact.

We all knew it was in development but THQ have finally announced that Warhammer 40,000 Dawn of War II is in the making. Relic is again at the helm and has set a spring 2009 release date. Using the 2.0 version of the Essence Engine, brutal combat and intense action is again on the board. Even more exciting is the fact that if you’ve bought Dawn of War: Soulstorm, you’ll be eligible for the multiplayer beta of Dawn of War II. Brad Carraway had this to say;

“The original Dawn of War and its subsequent standalone expansions have established the series as one of the industry’s leading RTS franchise. Dawn of War II will re-define RTS gaming to gamers worldwide, delivering brutal frontline action and tactics, and allowing players to get straight to the action with unprecedented fast-paced RTS gameplay and a full co-op campaign, all in stunning cinematic detail.”
