Moon Hunters
Originally announced in 2014, the role-playing game Moon Hunters is making its way to PlayStation 4 on July 12.
The Kickstarter-funded game is played by one to four players, who cooperatively weave a culture's mythology. Set in the ancient Mesopotamia, you play one of the heroes who attempt to find the moon, which has mysteriously gone missing.
The game is meant to be played in sessions, as each playthrough is relatively short, ranging from one to three hours. With every new playthrough, the procedurally-generated world changes, and several tries will be necessary to uncover all the character classes, tribes, and biomes. Difficult decisions must be made during your journey, and each player votes on the outcome. Once a run is complete, your player becomes part of the world's mythology as a constellation.
Moon Hunters is already out on PC, and while a PlayStation Vita version was announced earlier, there is no word on a release date. We first took a look at Moon Hunters at PAX East 2015.
