Transistor Comes to PS4 May 20th

Transistor is coming soon! Mark your calendar for May 20th, 2014 — In just a few weeks, our next game will be available on PS4! We’ve been putting the finishing touches on it, and we think it’s just about ready.

If you’re not familiar with the game, Transistor is a sci-fi themed action RPG that invites you to wield an extraordinary weapon of unknown origin as you fight through a stunning futuristic city. Gameplay seamlessly integrates thoughtful strategic planning with fast-paced action and rich atmospheric storytelling. During the course of the adventure, you’ll piece together the Transistor’s mysteries as you pursue its former owners.

This week at PAX East in Boston, several of us from Supergiant will be taking a short break from development to show you some of our latest progress. We’ll have a near-final build of the game running on PS4, which you’ll be able to get your hands on at our booth (#892). It was one year ago at PAX East that we showed Transistor for the first time!

We’ll have more details about Transistor in the days leading up to our launch next month. Until then, here are some quick facts we wanted to share — stay tuned for more:

When is Transistor due out?
Transistor’s release date is May 20th, 2014.

Where will I be able to get the game?
You’ll be able to get Transistor for PS4 on PlayStation Store

How much is the game?
$19.99 in North America.

Will Transistor be available in my country?
We plan for a worldwide launch. Transistor includes English voiceover and text in English, French, Spanish, Italian, German, Russian, and Brazilian Portuguese.

Can I preorder the game?
Not at this time, though we’re looking into it!

I have more questions.
Sure! Read our Transistor FAQ, send questions to @SupergiantGames on Twitter, or leave us comments here on PlayStation.Blog.

Stay tuned for more news, and get ready to play Transistor in the near future!

I do rather want it, given that Bastion was one of the finest games of recent years.

The choice of platforms is rather bemusing though.

It's been on steam for a bit, but part of me would rather have it on ps4.

Which would require a ps4.

It was made available to play on Steam about six hours ago as I type this; which is pretty much the same time it was available for the PS4. I don't think it's that odd a decision and I think you're going to see more and more stuff available on PC + <one of the two next-gen consoles>. It's a political battle as to which console it appears on and the PC gets to carry on being a default of sorts because Sony/MS don't see it as a direct competitor.

I want to want it because I loved Bastion but the combat sounds really weird. I'll need to see someone playing it on YouTube or something before I decide whether I'm going to pick it up or not.

This looks brilliant.

I absolutely loved Bastion. This went instantly on my wishlist.
