Neon Whitedebuted as one of the highest-rated indie games of the yearupon its release in June, sitting at 90 on Metacritic for its PC version, and 88 for the Nintendo Switch version. Now it appears that Angel Matrix will be bringing the stylish platforming and shooting to other consoles, as Twitter account PlayStation Game Size has teased that the game has appeared on the backend for the PlayStation Store for PS4 and PS5.
WhileNeon Whitewill undoubtedly run on PlayStation consoles, the game’s focus on fast reflex platforming and gameplay may make it a unique case on Sony’s console, particularly regarding its use of the DualSense and DualShock 4 controllers. On Nintendo Switch,Neon Whitemakes heavy use of the gyro control capabilitiesof the console and the Pro Controller, same goes for the Steam Deck version of the game. Given that both PlayStation controllers feature this ability, the game should control great on the platforms.
Given thatAnnapurna Interactive has a history of bringing games to PlayStation Plus and Xbox Game Pass, it wouldn’t be too much of a surprise to see that the title could be part of the PlayStation Plus Extra line-up for the month, which is yet to be revealed as of now. Hopefully the full line-up will be announced in the coming days.
Neon Whiteis available now for Nintendo Switch and PC. A PS4 and PS5 version is rumored to be in development.
