D4: Dark Dreams Don’t Die coming to PC

D4: Dark Dreams Don’t Die, Access Games’ episodic Xbox One adventure game, is coming to PC, director Hidetaka “Swery” Suehiro announced.

“The catalyst for this port was the presentation I did at GDC, where we made a PC version experimentally to demonstrate the point that we could provide emotional immersion and recreate human sensations even without Kinect on hand and it was designed to be playable with nothing but a mouse,” Swery told Famitsu.

“Prior to my presentation, we had heard from a lot of people who said that they wanted to play D4, but don’t own an Xbox One, but afterwards when people knew that a PC version existed, they were really keen on seeing it get an actual release and created some buzz on social media.”

The next month will be dedicated to clearing the PC version of bugs.

So its most likely to be released in May. Cool.

DanielGearSolid3286d ago

This pretty much confirms Tomb Raider isnt coming to PS4 imo

All of the MS third party exclusives have only gone to pc

That cant be a coincidence

Rimeskeem3286d ago

But Tomb Raider is a TIMES exclusive. The other games were mostly full exclusive but MS has a lot of the computer market so they put games on PC for more sales.

ScorpiusX3285d ago

if they are publishing , who knows what kind of deal they have in place now after all the crap they got for D3, Ryse . Make you wonder what kind of deals they will make .

_-EDMIX-_3285d ago

It doesn't even matter if they are publishing as we've seen titles they've published go to PS systems. Its really a matter of do the own the IP?

No company will just be like, "I'll trade off life time sales to a game on 1 system for funding" that just makes no sense...

Tomb Raider is very much timed and I'm not sure why any one is surprised, this publisher is sorta know for that as hell look at this D4 game.

Is this even a shock to anyone thats somewhere else? Isn't that MS whole tagline now? Play it here first, play it better somewhere else?

Mind you, MS already confirmed Tomb Raider is timed, that their deal has a "duration" as most if not all of their deals have when it comes to 3rd parties.

Third parties don't just sign away rights to IPs for the lolz....

I can't say I've ever heard of such a thing in a deal before as you might as well buy the IP.

Its like saying if I can pay less for your car for you to NEVER drive it LOL! I mean...that sound like a fair deal to you? All the while you legally own your car...

MegaRay3285d ago

If sunset overdrive comes to PC then im good ;)
The only exclusive I wish to play atm

_-EDMIX-_3285d ago

Well Insomniac does own the IP so a good chance it will be on PC, PS4 etc.

GrmpyolGamer 3285d ago

Insomniac already said there will be no PC version of the game

Thatguy-3103285d ago

All I have to say is square enix. Highly doubt its fully Exclusive for that reason alone. Its Only For holiday 2015 like they stated when they announced it.

Kalebninja3285d ago

tomb raider isn't an ms exclusive, its timed and even square enix said it themselves.

Oblivion
Lost Planet
Overlord
Ninja Gaiden 2
Bioshock
Limbo
mass effect
star ocean iv

all were 360 timed exclusives that ended up on ps3, do your research before you sound stupid.

GrmpyolGamer 3285d ago

have Ryse and deadrising 3 come to Ps4 yet? I wouldn't hold my breath for Rise of the Tombraider on Ps4.

spacedelete3285d ago

don't want Tomb Raider anyway. let Xbox keep that.

Is this game any good? I played the demo and its seemed a silly game to me.

killzzo3285d ago

the game is suppose to be silly, and do not expect some combat, it is more of an adventure game

Sarah_Ch3285d ago

Ah thanks I missed the opportunity when it was free for gold members, so would you recommend it? I didn't like the demo actually

GrmpyolGamer 3285d ago

Fun, interesting and weird game. Im sure that PC gamers will enjoy it. Just wish they would release the next episode

Hidetaka SWERY65 Suehiro on his unique work and inspirations

Hidetaka Suehiro, also known as SWERY65, may not have many big hit games on his portfolio, but he still belongs to the important figures of the Japanese gaming scene. His work is truly unique - visually, narratively and thematically, he combines many elements with various references. The results are quite divisive, but at the same time, Swery also has a large number of fans. Spy Fiction, Deadly Premonition or D4: Dark Dreams Don't Die are familiar to everyone who likes slightly "different" games. What exactly is the source of their uniqueness? Swery revealed more about it in our interview.

jznrpg411d ago (Edited 411d ago )

Deadly Premonition really needs a full remake , I don’t think it will happen though. I’m talking much better mechanics than 2 . Good driving , combat and Bosses would make this an amazing game. The story was really good , I loved the atmosphere it was eerie . But the game itself was janky . I still enjoyed it but it could have been so much more .

Deadly Premonition Director Thinks Game Updates Should Cost Money

Hidetaka Suehiro, director of the Deadly Premonition games, asked on his Twitter as to why developers should update their games for free.

FallenAngel1984427d ago

This guy can go hell

With how many games that get released unfinished, imagine those devs then charging you with future updates

jambola427d ago

Sounds like what fallout 76 did tbh

Chriswheeler22426d ago

I got like 100 hours into 76, havrnt paid for anything extra. Not sure what you are talking sbout

Profchaos426d ago

@chris yeah I played quite a bit I got to level 39 I think all in all but the game was a chore to play solo so I gave up

Terry_B427d ago

He really can go to hell. Deadly Premonition 1 on PC does not even run, and nothing was ever patched.

Anunnaki427d ago

Exactly. The real question is why does the gaming population ever buy games at release when every single game gets post launch patches to fix bugs. Back before consoles had hard drives devs actually put effort into releasing the game in the best possible state. Now it's a given that games are released with bugs that continue to be fixed months down the line.

Jin_Sakai426d ago

Lmao. He compares it to buying a $10 cup of coffee. If something’s wrong with the coffee then you expect to get a new one FREE.

Orchard427d ago (Edited 427d ago )

Yeah, no. That’s a terrible take.

If it’s quality fixes it’s because the developer did something wrong/poorly and should absolutely be free.

If it’s sizable content updates, we already have a system for paying for those - release it as DLC.

p.s. We don’t all spend $10 on coffee at Starbucks. It’s mediocre coffee and isn’t worth $1 never mind $10.

senorfartcushion426d ago

He’s basically describing the live service model except the money that would go to updates comes from microtransactions instead of through the updates themselves

Knushwood Butt426d ago

I actually agree with Orchard.
I never buy Starbucks either.

P_Bomb427d ago

We already have DLC, microtransactions, battle passes and price increases. Who has money left for Starbucks, lol?

isarai427d ago

We shouldn't need to pay for you to finish or fix your damn game. It's not our responsibility to get your product in working order. Wow f@#k off!

kenpachi427d ago

Everyone at EA and Ubisoft eyes just rolled into money signs
