The DVD should be pretty interesting, as Happ developed the game all by himself over five years, including the programming, art, story and music. Because they are separate experiences, you won’t have to have played Axiom Verge 1 to enjoy Axiom. Although there are references to the first game, you won’t actually see how they relate until Axiom Verge 3. However, there are a few things the game doesnt tell you, and some others that. Save the date, the physical versions of Axiom Verge 1 + 2 and Axiom Verge 2 will open for pre-order on PlayStation 4 and Nintendo Switch starting October 1st. Axiom Verge 2 is about Indra, a mysterious billionaire/tech genius who winds up in an alternate version of Earth while in Antarctica. The special edition will include "a copy of the game, a deluxe booklet with developer commentary and art, a double-sided poster, and an exclusive making-of documentary on DVD," the companies say. Axiom Verge 2 is a game focused on exploration and it invites you to search every corner of the map. The game received numerous awards when it launched in 2015, and Happ said that "as a solo developer, it's always been a dream of mine to see a game that I made end up on the store shelves." Pre-orders aren't allowed, and the company hasn't listed any prices yet, but Runner2 costs $15 on Steam as a download, so we'd guess a physical, limited edition would be more.īadland and Thomas Happ Games will also be releasing Metroidvania-inspired Axiom Verge as a "Multiverse Edition" physical release for PlayStation 4, PlayStation Vita, and Wii U. Later on, Choice Provisions and Limited Run will sell boxed versions of The Bit.Trip, Tharsis and Drive! Drive! Drive! Each of the limited run copies has nice-looking original artwork, adding to the collector (and fun) appeal. Limited Run Games has now opened pre-orders for a physical release of both Axiom Verge titles. Limited Run will also sell 1,000 copies of a (separate) limited Runner2 edition at its PAX East booth on March 10-12. Choice Provisions is partnering with Limited Run Games on a physical version of the Runner2 sidescroller on PS4 and PS Vita with 3,500 copies of each for sale online starting March 17th. Indie games don't often cross over into the physical world, so it's pretty notable when two separate companies make boxed games at once.
