Metroid-Style Forma.8 Launches This Month For PS4, Vita
Making a game can be a huge and sprawling – but ultimately rewarding – undertaking. This description applies not only to the creative process of MixedBag's newest title, but to Forma.8 itself. First announced in 2013, the metroidvania game about a stranded exploration probe on a strange world officially releases for PS4 (with native 4K for Pro owners) and PS Vita on February 23. It will be available on the Playstation Store as a digital download, though the studio plans to offer a limited amount of physical copies through Limited Run Games sometime in the future.
Much has changed since 2014, but you can see how far Forma.8 has come through Kyle Hilliard's preview here.

I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription.

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.
