‘The Banner Saga’ and three other indies dropping on PS4 in 2015

The Banner Saga

I’ve wanted to play The Banner Saga all fucking year. But unfortunately I’m an old douchebag, whose gaming tendencies ossified over the course of the past decade. What this means is that despite having a reputable PC, I don’t really fuck with gaming outside of consoles. I know, I know. Not PC masterrace. Console prole tier. But next year!

Joystiq:

Four games from independent developers will arrive on PS4 in early 2015, each courtesy of publisher Versus Evil. The publisher, which specializes in assisting independent devs reach new platforms and regions, revealed Stoic Studio’s viking RPG The Banner Saga among the handful of games destined for the PlayStation Network. The Banner Saga’s first episode launched in January after a successful $723,886 campaign on Kickstarter funded the game in April 2012.

Versus Evil will also help another Kickstarter-funded game to reach PS4 early next year, Pencil Test Studios’ clay-sculpted adventure game Armikrog.

The other two games arriving on PS4 in 2015 thanks to the publisher are Kyn and Toren, the latter developed by Brazilian studio Swordtales. Players guide a “Moonchild” through the stages of childhood while ascending a tower in Toren, solving puzzles and slashing at enemies along the way. Versus Evil noted in PlayStation Blog’s comments that none of the games are slated to reach Vita as of yet.

Even us proletarian gamers win once in a while! Muwahaha!
