Rain Announced

Sony revealed a new PlayStation Network game from its Japan studio called Rain. In this platformer you play as an invisible boy who can only be seen in the rain. The video trailer from the conference is not being made public at this time [It's now posted below], but the key art below gives you an idea of the look of the game.

There's no release date yet for Rain.

  • Sounds really cool! Wonder if its a 2D platformer, or 3D, or what, but whatever it is, I hope its great :3
  • This sounds intriguing.. I need to see that video.

    EDIT: So I just saw the video. You can only see your character in the rain, and it looks like you're not alone in the world. Nice soundtrack as well, you do not hear that kind of music in games these days
  • Interesting looks cool regardless.

  • Heavy.

    Here's a youtube video for anybody who wants to see it, another artsy platformer from Sony, looks awesome.
  • Um, ok. Not much to go on here. And it's a platformer? Kind of a dumb concept.
  • Conceptually reminds me the most of Lost in Shadow...
  • I love the art style for this video game.
  • At first I thought Game Informer had some kind of new weather announcement system as we are expecting rain tonight, lol thankfully that is not the case. SCEJ/Japan Studio comes out with some great and very unique titles. They have released one of the best Vita titles to date (which I know doesn't mean a whole lot), Gravity Rush. I must have demo'd that game for a couple hours at a local Gamestop a bit back. Of course I am also really looking forward to "The Last Guardian" that they are making with Team ICO. Can't wait for the gameplay video for this.
  • Sony is nailing it with these creative games, Journey, Papo and Yo, the newly announced game from media molecule, and now this!
  • Reminds me of Limbo
  • So all I've got here is a name, a concept, and key art. This is going to sound sarcastic, but I'm in!

    The concept sounds cool to me, I like the key art, and if you study it you can guess a few things. Street sign says sunshine facing the other way. Wonder if you have to avoid the light, as you will disappear if not in rain. So like, if you dry, you will die!

    I look froward to more info on this one.

  • This could be very cool.

  • I get kind of a Machinarium meets Gemini Rue vibe from looking at that pic.

    Looks interesting but I hope it'll actually be interesting.

  • OH.....MY.....GOD!

  • this is pushed to one of my most anticipated games. after playing LIMBO last week, i'm suddenly craving as many indie platformers as i can get my hands on.

  • Rain? Does this have anything to do with the amazing Heavy Rain franchise? Prolly not. Anyway... this looks super good.

  • Wow, I can already tell that this game is going to be something special.
