PlayStation Fur

There are plenty of people out there who grumble about indie games on the PlayStation 4. Maybe they feel cheated by the lack of original, super polished AAA titles coming out on the next-gen system right now, or maybe they don't feel that indie experiences are pushing their expensive hardware to its limit. However, we defy anyone, even the world's biggest indie sceptic, to look at Dust: An Elysian Tail and not be blown away by its visuals.

The artwork is hand-drawn, which gives it a great deal of vibrancy and personality – not too dissimilar to the excellent Rayman Legends in terms of style. And, for everyone out there who's interested in that sort of thing, it'll run in 1080p at 60 frames-per-second.

The game was originally released on the Xbox 360 and the PC, and got a very good response from players and reviewers. We never got it on the PS3 at the time, which was frustrating, so it's good to see the developer sharing a little Sony love, in the form of a superior version for the PS4. We shouldn't have long to wait, either, as the press release proclaims, getting a tad carried away in its own excitement, that the title will release "really, really soon".

What do you think of this announcement? Would you rather have original indies, or are you happy to see these of last-gen favourites polished up for the PS4? Wag your tail in the comments section below.
