Grow Up on 16th August with PS4 Platformer

Pre-order promotion dates several titles

by Sammy Barker Thu 14th Jul 2016

It'll be time for you to Grow Up next month, as Ubisoft's buccaneering 'bot BUD embarks on an all-new adventure on the PlayStation 4 from 16th August. The sequel to Grow Home has been dated as part of a pre-order promotion on the European PlayStation Store, which sees PlayStation Plus members securing sizeable savings when purchasing a handful of titles ahead of release.

Here are the other titles included in the lineup:

Cast of the Seven Godsends Redux – 20th July
Obliteracers – 20th July
Hyper Light Drifter – 26th July
Battleship – 2nd August
Risk Urban Assault – 2nd August
Overcooked – 3rd August
Grow Up – 16th August
Alone With You – 23rd August
Rive – 6th September

It's likely that many of these will be part of the platform holder's Play 2016 promotion in North America, which is set to be officially outlined next week. Have any of the above taken your fancy? Pay for them before they're even reviewed in the comments section below.

For some reason I have never heard of any of those games. I may have to check them since they are kind of cheap though. Also those say "Immediate Payment Required". For example Hyper Light, Risk, Battleship and Rive are 12 euros, Grow Up and Alone with you are 8. Also some seam to be Vita Cross Buy, a good feature for me.

@belmont I find it a little bit shady. They're basically asking people to buy the games before any review coverage/footage can get out, and I doubt they'll do refunds if they're rubbish.

I don't think it's nefarious, but they'd be better just discounting them when they release, rather than this pre-order thing.

Hyper Light Drifter, Grow Up and Overcooked for me. The latter looks like a ton of fun with friends

I'm really looking forward to this sequel. It's such a short, nice and charming little game, not everything has to be the Witcher 3 or bloodborne now does it?
