PlayStation Blog Asia Lists Dead Nation: Apocalypse Edition For PS4
According to a post on PlayStation Blog Asia Hong Kong, a PlayStation 4 edition of the Housemarque-developed, twin-stick zombie shooter Dead Nation is on the way.
The game, along with the subtitle Apocalypse Edition, appears on a list of games coming for free to PlayStation Plus members in Asia starting on March 6.
Housemarque is the developer behind Resogun and Super Stardust HD, among others. Dead Nation released in 2010, and was offered as a free download as part of Sony's welcome-back program after hackers crippled the PlayStation Network for an extended period of time in 2011.

Our Take
It's unclear if Dead Nation: Apocalypse Edition will make its way to North America, but it seems likely. Housemarque is based in Finland, but none of its games have gone unreleased in the United States. I'm sure we'll be hearing an official announcement soon.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
