The Game Awards 2018: PlayStation Exclusive Journey Coming to PC

A new Journey

by Sammy Barker Fri 7th Dec 2018

Legendary adventure game Journey is coming to the PC via the newly launched Epic Games Store, per publisher Annapurna Interactive. The iconic thatgamecompany experience is owned by PlayStation, but it seems the platform holder has allowed it to be released elsewhere, which is great for people who haven’t played it yet.

As the Editor of Push Square, Sammy has over 15 years of experience analysing the world of PlayStation, from PS3 through PS5 and everything in between. He’s an expert on PS Studios and industry matters, as well as sports games and simulators. He also enjoys RPGs when he has the time to dedicate to them, and is a bit of a gacha whale.

Hmm, I think indie exclusives is not a thing for sony anymore, the 10M selling true exclusives (uc4, gow, spider-man) is the new hotness from sony

Heard so much good stuff about, and I haven’t even played the darn thing yet. I play so many games yet miss out on a lot too.

@Flopsy they don't.

Atleast not the AAA exclusives.

besides indie games should get as much attention as possible so this is a kind move by Sony.

@Jriibz It’s the latter. Sony still own the IP. From the Epic Games Store listing:
‘© 2012-2019 Sony Interactive Entertainment LLC. Journey is a trademark of Sony Interactive Entertainment LLC. Developed by thatgamecompany.‘

Epic probably threw some money at Sony and they took it.
I can’t imagine the game still selling that many copies 6 years later and after it’s been on PS+.
