I still don't have a PS5PRO. I've yet to find a cheap Garage sale console anywhere. Gamestop used is way too expensive.

Since it's Devolver publishing, I'm hoping they'll also do a physical release later down the road (maybe next year?).

Just saying, PS+ is the clear winner on 9/17. That's surprising.

Ok. Interesting take.
I'm just not sure what one has to do with the other. There isn't any sort of predicting, or agreements that we are aware of between publishers to put one on a separate service vs another, it's just Xbox and PS working independently and signing deals in secret with publishers. I don't know, and would really doubt, if there was something PS signed with this publisher that would keep it off Game Pass. Probably as simple as PS made a better offer, and so they went with PS.

I was just shitposting, literally. You're probably right to call me on it. I'll just buy the game, oh well.Ok. Interesting take.

But yeah, the more interesting story is just Devolver's change of opinion. They quite publicly declared on several occasions over the last year or two that they are moving away from sub deals. Multiple different times stating they're not going to do it anymore, and will only consider it for later releases. Yesterday they announced Cult of the Lamb (2 years old) and today this both on PS+, so Sony must have dumped some cash on them.

It's hard to turn down money, man. Especially this game always shows well, and people seem to be really paying attention to it. It's a great get for PS for their sub service, for sure. Talk is cheap, money talks

Well good for them. Maybe it'll wake up MS. Competition is good.

It's not stated on Steam. I'm guessing a full 59.99. It looks like a big meaty full priced game to me.

Glad I didn't pre-order it. I was itching to do it as I got Astro Bot a few days ago.

We'll probably get the last August announcement next Tuesday, with September announcements far after that, but likely not.

Sony own 10% of Devolver Digital.
That probably helped.

Was a very pleasant surprise when it appeared in that showcase or state of play or whatever it was... definitely day 1.

PS4 is a legacy console, Switch is the newest console Nintendo have released. I dont see the comparison.

It’s clear Sony are trying to expand the PS5 player base with this, Lego Horizon and Astrobot all arriving in time for this holiday season. A shame they can’t repeat PS1-4 tactic in year 4 and combine it with a large $100 price cut this time. I guess maybe in time for GTA VI in late 2025.

My playstation library looking crazy right now. I just bought 5 games to add to my backlog, Black Myth Wukong, Space Marines and Astro Bot releasing in the next 2 months too?
