'Obduction' (ALL) Gets PS4 Date

by Rainier on July 18, 2017 @ 1:49 p.m. PDT

Obduction is an all-new, real-time, first-person adventure that harkens back to the spirit of Cyan’s earlier games Myst and Riven.

Obduction, powered by the Unreal Engine 4, resurrects that incredible feeling of suddenly finding yourself in the middle of a new world to explore, discover, solve, and become part of. The Obduction project will take what Cyan knows about creating deeply immersive worlds and apply it to an entirely new game with fantastic scenery, incredible architecture, compelling story, and exceptional challenges.

Obduction will be built with the same framework that made Cyan's earlier games such a wonderful experience: stunning landscapes, deep storyline, engaging characters, dramatic soundscapes, and challenging yet intuitive puzzles. Obduction is an entirely new property, delivered using one of the most powerful game development technologies available today. Obduction is an adventure game for the new millennium that stays true to the concepts that made the genre great.

Obduction's experience supplies what every good storyteller does: a very personal window into a much larger world. Obduction begins with... well… an abduction - your abduction. On a crystal clear, moon-lit night, a curious, organic artifact drops from the sky and inexplicably whisks you away across the universes to who-knows-where (or when, or why).

And, as anyone who ever played Myst or Riven knows, exploring everything around you allows you to read between the lines and to begin to answer your questions. Why is there an old, abandoned farmhouse - complete with white picket fence - in the middle of an alien landscape? You'll find out. From this point on the story becomes your story

Obduction, will be coming to PlayStation on Tuesday, August 29 for $29.99 in a package that includes both the PS4 and PlayStation VR games.

"It's been almost two decades since we created a product for console, and we couldn't be happier about our return to PlayStation. We’ve been working really hard to craft a special Obduction experience for both PS4 and PSVR, and we’re so excited to get Obduction to our PlayStation fans.“ said Rand Miller, CEO of Cyan, Inc.

Pre-orders are available right now on the PlayStation Store and include exclusive themes and avatars which fans can use to change up the look of their PS4 background and forum posts.

Obduction is available for download from Oculus StoreSteamGOG, and  Humble Store for $29.99.
