Acclaimed Narrative Platformer GRIS Is Coming to PS4 According to European Ratings Board

PEGI leaks port

by Stephen Tailby Mon 7th Oct 2019

GRIS is a narrative focused adventure game from Devolver Digital that released at the end of last year. We've embedded a trailer above to give you an idea. It skipped PlayStation 4, but went on to receive pretty much unanimous praise from press and players. Now, though, it seems the game will finally be coming to Sony's platform.

Though nothing official has been announced yet, PEGI -- that's Pan European Game Information, the continent's game ratings board -- has listed GRIS for PS4. Early game ratings like this almost always lead to an announcement, so we'd expect to hear something from Devolver soon.

Y'know most times I usally see why a game gets praise or scolded by reviewers. Even if I don't personally agree with the review I respect the opinion...

I don't wanna sound like a neanderthal but I don't get the praise for this title though... At all.

It's from what I've seen a two hour platformer that's barely a game with some decent visuals and it's hailed as some kind of modern classic? I feel like I'm taking crazy pills 😂

@Foxy-Goddess-Scotchy I played it on Switch and it is a divisive title for sure. I would liken it as a 2 hour experience. The art style, the music, the motions are amazing and I felt it spoke to me as an experience.

As a game... not so much. Light puzzling, minor platforming and very little to no challenge (although there are collectibles if I recall). Imagine it as an arthouse flick really. Basically, if the art style and trailers don't sell it to you, don't bother. If it does, then give it a shot.

I'm glad you enjoyed the experience @Rudy_Manchego and I wasn't trying to knock people that did have a good time with it.

The fact it has so little player input it seems more like it'd be better suited as an arthousey 30 minute animation or something... the fact it is a "game" seems to have very little bearing on the whole

@Foxy-Goddess-Scotchy No not at all - I was kind of agreeing with you I wouldn't say the game was amazing but I also thought it was sort of special if that makes sense.

@Rudy_Manchego @Foxy-Goddess-Scotchy I thought I was the only one that is not a big fan of this game. It is somewhat longer than two hours but it certainly ovestays its wellcome.

Gives me the feeling of a 2D version of Journey.

No thanks. The visual style is gorgeous, but the actual game looks utterly devoid of substance. And, given my experience with similarly shallow experiences like Journey and Abzu, I'm sure I wouldn't have a good time with it.
