No, we hadn't heard of Blue Fire before the press release hit our inbox. As it turns out, the game is a well-liked action platformer, released earlier this year on PC and Switch. Developer Robi Studios is bringing its debut title to PlayStation 4 pretty soon, and it looks fairly promising in this new trailer.
It's a 3D platformer set in the mysterious land of Penumbra. To discover the world's secrets, you'll need to traverse all manner of tricky platforming challenges, as well as fight off baddies, avoid traps, and gather collectibles. It doesn't look to be doing anything particularly unique, but it appears to control pretty tightly, which is half the battle won when it comes to this sort of thing.
Our sister site Nintendo Life awarded the game an 8/10, calling it a "very pleasant and enjoyable surprise" with "excellent platforming action". It's due out on PS4 23rd July, and we're interested in taking a look. What about you? Are you feeling hot after seeing Blue Fire? Watch you don't burn yourself in the comments section below.

This looks superb and the feedback from players on PC and Switch is positive enough. Write me very interested!
Looks like my kinda thing!
Played it on PC. It's sort of a cross between Ori and Zelda. I liked it and would recommend it if you're into 3D Platformers.
Loved it. This game managed the feat of tearing me from my ps5. For me it also served as a good break from massive open world games.
@Quintumply This is why I watch what's coming over to platforms I don't have, because very rarely is a truly amazing indie game ever permanently limited exclusively to said platform. Timed exclusive yes, but usually only for 3-6 months.
I wish I could have played this on my PS5. The one problem I had with this game on switch was all of the very long load screens between areas of the map. One boss fight took me 2.5 minutes to get back to fighting from where I respawned. 18 seconds was walking and the rest of the time was three different load screens.
@RBRTMNZ Well PS4 is FAR more powerful than the Switch so I doubt the loading screens will be longer than 4-5 seconds in the PS4 port.
@TowaHerschel7 ok
Wanted this when I had my Switch but didn't get around to it. Good to see it coming to ps4.
@TowaHerschel7 and probably even faster on a ps5.
I was looking forward to buying this today, but it seems to be unavailable at the moment. 🤷
Edit: Nevermind, it’s available to download now!
