Concrete Genie
The release date for Concrete Genie is set and we will all get to play Concrete Genie this coming October in a few different ways
It seems like this is the week for release date announcements as we have one for Concrete Genie to look out for now. This amazing looking PS4 title from Pixelopus has caught the eyes of many since it was first announced and now we get to see it all come to us on October 8th of this year. It feels like we have been waiting so long, but now the wait is almost done for Concrete Genie. It is now time to roll out and start all of that pre-order fun that is all the rage with gamers out there.
With all of that said, we have two ways we can go with picking up Concrete Genie now. There is the base way that is slightly cheaper than normal. Then there is the Digital Deluxe Edition that comes with a few more bells and whistles. Things like a digital artbook for Concrete Genie, a soundtrack, and then the usual theme and wallpapers that come with any PlayStation game that is on the store. You can see it all in motion just below and figure out if you are going to throw down the cash or not. Have a look and enjoy.
Concrete Genie — Release Date Reveal
Hello! Dominic Robilliard, Creative Director of Pixelopus here with very exciting news. I’m happy to announce that Concrete Genie will be available on October 8.
To celebrate this occasion, we have a new Concrete Genie trailer to share, which provides some new glimpses of our protagonist Ash on his personal journey to paint his hometown of Denska back to life, as well as the challenges he’ll face along the way. Later on in the game there is an exciting gameplay twist, which we hinted at in our last trailer, and we show some more of that here. Ash’s magic brush has a few new surprises that are revealed through the course of the story, one of which is ‘Paint Skating’. We hope you like it!
As for our next bit of news – pre-orders begin today!
All of us at Pixelopus want as many people to experience Concrete Genie as possible. We’re thrilled to share our price point – $29.99 USD for the Standard Edition and $39.99 USD for the Digital Deluxe. All editions of Concrete Genie include two beautiful and immersive PlayStation VR modes that we unveiled back in April in addition to the core PS4 game.
Additionally, we’re thrilled to confirm that a Photo Mode will be available at launch. We have added a special feature to it – a timelapse style ‘Replay’ that allows you to show how you put your artistic compositions together. We can’t wait to see the images and clips of the artwork you’ll create once you get your hands on this feature.
As an incentive for people who pre-order, we’re offering an Avatar set as well as a special Dynamic Theme featuring a rooftop scene from Denska, with special music composed by Sam Marshall. We’re really happy with how the theme turned out and hope all those that pre-order enjoy having its atmospheric vibes on their PS4s.
As mentioned, we have a great Digital Deluxe Edition available for people who want to immerse themselves even further in the hand-crafted world we’ve made for Concrete Genie. You get a Digital Artbook featuring a ton of stunning development images created by Art Director Jeff Sangalli and our amazing art team, a complete soundtrack from the game composed by Sam Marshall, a Pond Design Pack to expand your design toolset, and an additional Dynamic Theme featuring the Lighthouse location from the game.
We look forward to sharing more with you on the road to Concrete Genie’s launch on October 8!
