60fps trailer, also coming to PC on the same day.

This is awesome news! Day one for sure. Looks even prettier than I thought.

I still have no idea what you actually do in this game. I know you explore and solve puzzles but what are the things you actually do, what are your goals. And I don't even need to know!

Alcoholikaust · Sep 17, 2015

Looking quite ravishing!

They are a company now

Gotcha. Thanks! I was wondering... cuz that is quite a massive game. Even with a team it makes sense why this took so long.

Stairouais · Sep 17, 2015

I want to live in this world.

Wait... did he make this one by himself like Braid or does he have a team?

Started as a small time, grew up to 10-ish by the end of the game.

Nzyme32 · Sep 17, 2015

Awesome, and it looks absolutely stunning. 80hrs of puzzles, 4k 60fps etc etc. End of January can't come soon enough!!

Kenzodielocke · Sep 17, 2015

Could a mod edit the title and add PC/PS4. Thanks!

SwiftDeath · Sep 17, 2015

Always looked good, still does

Can't wait

TheCarrotKiller · Sep 17, 2015

It's so beautiful! Interesting to see more environmental puzzles as well.

Pachimari · Sep 17, 2015

Will it be out for PC on January 26 as well though?

John Kowalski · Sep 17, 2015

I'll believe it when i see it.

jacobeid · Sep 17, 2015

2016 is insane. It'll be 2018 by the time I'm done with everything.

Yes, it's just the usual PSblog only point to PS stuff. Here's the other trailer - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SPMMKFX78x0

wapplew · Sep 17, 2015

Finally!

dave is ok · Sep 17, 2015

Hope this sells well for them

Blanquito · Sep 17, 2015

So beautiful.

Zeouterlimits · Sep 17, 2015

Continues to impress, hopefully a good start to the year.

RibMan · Sep 17, 2015

Stunning. Absolutely stunning! I was sold on the game since it was first announced. I'm in.

JMTHEFOX · Sep 17, 2015

Cool, one day before my birthday! This would make a great purchase.

Savinowned · Sep 17, 2015

So the core gameplay is a bunch of crazy puzzles? Seems legit! Especially with that environment... Giving me cool Sea of Thieves vibes with the landscapes

Should be in the OP.

marmoka · Sep 17, 2015

All right, the game is finally coming 3 years after its announcement. At least the wait is finally over.

So beautiful game!!

coolasj19 · Sep 17, 2015

...
I don't have this much for games in the budget. These aren't even "I'm really hyped about them and I think I want them" games. It seems like there's a game on my PS4 for every month of the year.

Elios83 · Sep 17, 2015

Beautiful, seems like a next gen Myst.

thenexus6 · Sep 17, 2015

Never even heard of this before, maybe I've been under a rock. WOW at the visuals, looks gorgeous.

Servbot24 · Sep 17, 2015

Sorry all other 2016 games, GOTY strikes in January B-)

Karu · Sep 17, 2015

Polygon interviewed Blow.Really interesting preview. He talks about platform decisions, length of the game, puzzle/game design...

chadskin · Sep 17, 2015

Awesome! January is a great time, too, after the onslaught of holiday games and before the March madness.

Bloodrage · Sep 17, 2015

This looks so good.

WGMBY · Sep 17, 2015

God DAMMIT, I was hoping for a December release.

Oh well, still day 1 for me, been looking forward to this game since forever.

EDIT: Just saw the trailer,

Dr_LucienSanchez · Sep 17, 2015

Super excited for this. Definitely good that they're releasing after the holiday craziness.

"The Witness is the anti-Nintendo," Blow says with a smile. "Nintendo has to have a little fairy follow you around and tell you everything all the time. Those kind of games drive me nuts. This is going the other way. It's more like the original Legend of Zelda, which didn't tell you anything. But at some point — a lot of companies do this, they start making a game, and they put it through focus testing, and any time someone gets stuck you consider it bad and change the game. That leads to extremely conservative, mechanical games."

Sploosh

After hearing from Sony about the upcoming PlayStation 4 announcement in 2013, Blow reached out to Microsoft as well. "I emailed them and said, 'Hey we're getting all this information from a major competitor about an upcoming machine,'" he says. "I asked if they could get us in on the ground floor of whatever they were doing so we could be prepared. The response was that there was no avenue for that.

And seemingly typical of 2013 Microsoft.

AAK · Sep 17, 2015

Bought!

And incredible music.

Gurish · Sep 17, 2015

It's gorgeous but I'm hoping for more interesting puzzles than what they've shown so far.

ashecitism · Sep 17, 2015

Regarding the music if anyone asks, it's in the description of the 60fps trailer

The music is Escape Artist by Zoe Keating; check out the whole album here: http://music.zoekeating.com/album/into-the-trees

Brainiac 8 · Sep 17, 2015

Reminds me of Mist a lot actually.

I just hope it's better than Braid. Braid was not great. This looks very pretty at least.

DieH@rd · Sep 17, 2015

Game looks even better now. Hopefully it will get PSVR support.

Do we know the pricing?

INTERNET · Sep 17, 2015

Wired has gameplay impressions with a preview copy

Man · Sep 17, 2015

Really beautiful.

Uiki · Sep 17, 2015

Stunning.

Most wanted.

Magic Mushroom · Sep 17, 2015

Lovely. And released on my birthday as well.

Willy Wanka · Sep 17, 2015

Same day PC? Nice. I hope it will have been worth the wait.

gift of 100 gab · Sep 17, 2015

Yes! Perfect timing, right between Bloodborne DLC and Dark Souls 3. Can't wait for this.

Kuraudo · Sep 17, 2015

Looks phenomenal.

Just need a date for NMS and Rime now. So many amazing games coming over the next year.

metsallica · Sep 17, 2015

That 4K 60fps PC trailer is JAW-DROPPING. Not that I ever doubted the game, but WOW.

Wow.

Bloodrage · Sep 17, 2015

This makes Talos Principle look really dreadful art style wise. Have to say, this is in my Top 3 prettiest games this gen.

mnannola · Sep 17, 2015

This game looks freaking amazing. In a "Holy crap what does all that stuff mean?" kind of way.

TheExhaustedWalrus · Sep 17, 2015

I was really holding out for this holiday but damn it I will wait if it mean this game is amazing. I have no doubt it will be.

jett · Sep 17, 2015

That sure is pretty.

I'm still unsure about the game, seems to me that doing those line puzzles could get old. Will probably still get it though unless it gets unspeakably dreadful reviews (i.e. 7/10 amirite)

Krakn3Dfx · Sep 17, 2015

Can't wait to Witness The Witness.
