Our PS5 Predictions for 2024 - Results Revealed | Push Square
We've made it to the end of 2024, so now is a perfect time to reflect on the last 12 months. As always, we made some predictions way back in January, and so now we must look to see which of them came true, and which were a load of rubbish. Editor Sammy Barker and assistant editor Liam Croft came joint first for 2023, but who's in the lead this time? Let's take a look.

It more or less fits the bill, then — we'll give it to him. It's Christmas after all.

"Silent Hill 2 releases this year, and it's better than expected."
Liam saw this one coming all the way back in January. There was definitely trepidation about the
