Dealt a winning hand
Inscryptionwas one of the more bizarre and compelling games to come out of last year. And next month, Daniel Mullins Games’ creepy deckbuilder will hit consoles.
Publisher Devolver Digitalconfirms todaythatInscryptionarrives for PlayStation on July 31, 2025. The store listing is up now for thePS5 version, and Devolver hassaid it’s also coming to PS4.
As for what’s coming for the PlayStation version? Well, it wouldn’t beInscryptionif things didn’t get weird. And some of the new features that PlayStation players will get sound downright unnerving.
Cabin in the woods
When it was highlighted in arecent indie roundupfor PlayStation, Daniel Mullins teased thatInscryptionwould use some ofthe PlayStation’s hapticsin particular.
“But what about those exclusive features I mentioned earlier? Well, for starters your faithful companion, a talking Stoat card, will play its audio out of your controller as if it’s really in your hands! Secondly, the atmospheric lighting in the game will spill out from your controller, so if you’re playing in the dark you’ll be one step closer to feeling like you’re inside Leshy’s cabin. If we’re adding sound and lighting to the PlayStation experience then it only makes sense to ensure that Haptic feedback enhances every grisly action… why not use the pliers and find out?”
As for how the game will handle some of the more computer-y parts ofInscryption, I’m interested to see. Games likeDoki Doki Literature Clubhave found some clever workarounds for that in the past, andInscryptionuses some elements that will be curious to see adapted to a PlayStation.
Given the track record though, I think it’s safe to say the crew at Daniel Mullins Games to find a way to make it work, though. PlayStation players will get to build their decks and duel for survival on August 30.
