Sony has announced the arrival of the award-winning video game 'Journey' to PlayStation 4 on July 21, after the game was first introduced by Thatgamecompany in 2012.
'Journey' focuses on travel and exploration allowing the players to communicate, walk, and jump to arrive on the top of the mountain.
The multinational tech company mentioned the nature of the game on a post on the official PlayStation blog. "Journey is a game that truly encapsulates our imagination and emotion into an experience like no other. If you've ascended the mountain, you know exactly what I mean."
The character played by the gamers wears a magical cloak which will help them complete the journey, with its powers activated through voice (shouting). Gamers can play and finish the journey alone or enjoy it with other people all over the world
Gaming fans who already have a copy of the game for the PS3 can obtain a free download for the PS4 version as Journey supports cross buying.
A trailer was released to give fans a glimpse of the new improvements made on the game.
Journey was first announced to come to PS4 in 2014, as revealed by the president and creative director of Thatgamecompany. Jenova Chen stated that the gaming fans will experience the excitement of the game before the year 2014 ends.
