Braid Finally Coming To Japan

North American gamers have been enjoying Braid since it hit XBLA two years ago and arrived on PC, Mac, and PlayStation Network last year. If you live in Japan, though, you haven't yet had the chance to experience this brain-bending puzzle-platformer. Lucky for Japanese gamers, that will change this summer when Ignition brings Braid to the Japanese PlayStation Network.

Ignition president of worldwide publishing Ajay Chadha commented on the news: "We are delighted to be able to bring this classic title to the Japanese PlayStation Network market. Braid epitomizes everything we at Ignition look for when it comes to publishing Digital Download titles - creativity, originality and of course great gameplay that keeps people coming back time and again."

Braid was ported to the PlayStation Network by Hothead Games, the developer that created Penny Arcade Adventures and is working on DeathSpank.

@linktriforce: I highly recommend checking it out if you can! It's a great experience.
by mbp Tuesday, May 25, 2010 at 02:52 PM

I haven't played it yet. But it looks too much of a mario rip off for me to probably be able to enjoy it

Glad to hear it -- Braid was a lot of fun. I can't figure out why it took two years to get it over there though. Not like it would be hard to localize, and it seems like Braid would be a perfect fit with that market.

@phill

Yeah this game looks awesome. Im definitely getting this
by Gobzer Tuesday, May 25, 2010 at 06:14 PM

It seems like a natural fit for over there

Great that other countries can enjoy the awesomeness of Braid, although I haven't played it myself, the demo was extremely fun.

Wow Japan is behind on the times, this game rocks.
by nathan anstadt Tuesday, May 25, 2010 at 11:51 PM

I've been trying to convince my friend to buy this off PSN because I loved it when I got it on 360 but he's a hardheaded fool. I mean come on even Soulja Boy liked it. I don't think he knows exactly why but he still liked it.

Strange how long some things take.
