Heart Machine's Zelda-inspired action adventure RPG Hyper Light Drifter makes its way to consoles later this month.
Zelda-esque Hyper Light Drifter from Heart Machine is making its way to Xbox One and PS4 on July 26, the developer announced via Gematsu [http://gematsu.com/2016/07/hyper-light-drifter-ps4-xbox-one-launches-july-26]. Meanwhile, a Vita version is expected to be released this autumn, and a Wii U version has not yet been given a release window.
Preorders for the Collector's Edition [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/news/view/167547-Hyper-Light-Drifter-Collectors-Edition-Announced#&gid=gallery_6254&pid=1] - which includes a cyan SNES cartridge (which is sadly not functional), a digital code (which is functional, so you can actually play the game), a 24-page manual, a world map poster, and a box to store it all in - are currently sold out for PS4, but are still available for Xbox One and Steam, and are expected to ship "late summer."
In our review of Hyper Light Drifter [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/articles/view/video-games/editorials/reviews/16981-Hyper-Light-Drifter-Review#&gid=gallery_6124&pid=1], I wrote, in part: "Hyper Light Drifter is a breathtaking game that draws heavily from gaming's most prominent pioneers without relying too heavily on their influence. It is an eclectic masterpiece that feels more like an experience than a video game."
