Chicory: A Colorful Tale has been in the works for a while now, and it's one game we've been loosely following in the hopes it'd make it to PlayStation. Lo and behold, the adorable adventure is indeed coming to both PS5 and PS4.
In it, you play as a small dog who's been gifted the ability to wield a magical paintbrush. That'll be quite important, as the world has been robbed of all its colour. The game's hook is that, it's kind of up to you to get creative and colour in the environments. You're free to use the brush however you want; it's less about problem solving and more about expression.
As you progress through the story, you'll gain access to new powers which will allow you to explore new areas, a little like a metroidvania. There's also local co-op for a second player to join in the fun.
As you can see in the above trailer, it just looks utterly delightful. It's essentially an interactive colouring book with a narrative to follow, and if that doesn't sound like a chill time, we don't know what does. Chicory will release on PS5 and PS4 sometime in 2021. Are you looking forward to this one? Refrain from colourful language in the comments section below.

This looks so lovely.
Just thought I'd point out that you are consistently using American and then English spellings of the same word in your last couple of articles. In this one it's colour. In the guide it's armour. I hope that's helpful, I'll delete this comment once you sort it.
Epic Mickey 3 looking sick
@Hyperluminal As an Englishman I've noticed this.
So many British people spelling 'mum' as 'mom'.
F**k right off !
@hypnotoad yep. Its funny because you will never, ever find an American who spells words with the English spelling, or pronounce words with the English pronunciation, like schedule for example (skedule in US, shedule in UK), but English folk frequently use do exactly that, even though they didn't learn that at school. Shows how easily influenced we are by their culture🤷♂️😄
Still, I only mentioned it because it sticks out like a sore thumb in the articles, I'm not complaining.
@Hyperluminal Oh I agree.
I love America and its people (not the shooty stabby ones though).
More fool us for adopting their bastardisation of our language.
Innit.
@hypnotoad Awesome!! 😆
@Hyperluminal Doooooood !!!
@hypnotoad indeed!
I've been following this game for years, and to see it finally releasing is heartwarming.
@hypnotoad lol as an american i am sorry and not sorry
@HotGoomba Don't apologise (with an 's') mate.
It's not youse mobs fault, it's ours.
@hypnotoad its not changed so it must be an editorial decision to spell words in 'American' in the headlines. Weird. Could be worse i suppose. They could spell it in Crystal Palace Sarf Landan dialect. We're posher over here in Brentford 😆
@Hyperluminal
West London ponces.
Innit blud.
@Hyperluminal Hello! The title of the game spells the word "Colorful", so I kept it that way to respect the name. You'll notice in all other instances I use the English spelling. The same would apply if writing about Dishonored, and then using the word "dishonour" in the text. Hope that makes sense.
@Quintumply ahh fair enough. I thought it was another error like in the Valhala guide that spells armour in American in the headline and English in the article. Its because of the use of capital letters for all the words in the headline, so sometimes I find it hard to distinguish nouns from verbs, adverbs, prepositions ect. Thanks for the response, I was just trying to help. I notice a few gramatical errors creep in from time to time, I don't always say so, but I think its important to feed stuff like that back seeing as it makes the site look more professional. Hope you don't mind.
@Hyperluminal No problem at all. Any feedback is appreciated. We of course do our best, but nobody's perfect
@Quintumply Excellent. You're a gentleman. 😊
@Quintumply Why does this game remind me so much of Okami?
It's definitely on my watchlist, hoping it's just as good.
@KidBoruto Haha, I think this will be pretty different to Okami! But yes, this looks like it could be a winner.
