Leading indie game publisher, SOEDESCO, today announces the launch of tactical, god-sim, Reus, from developer Abbey Games for the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One console systems. For the first time, the much-anticipated game is available as digital and retail console products. You can watch the new trailer for the game below.
Reus takes players on an epic adventure, where they don’t control just one God, but a group of four as they bring their planet to life while managing humans in hopes of creating thriving civilizations. Each giant has its own strengths, and with all their powers combined, players will shape and evolve their planet to let their tiny humans live in prosperity and peace or go to war in the blink of an eye. Hans van Brakel, Executive Manager at SOEDESCO, spoke about the release of the game, saying:
“It’s an exciting time to bring Reus to console for the first time. Everything that is great about the PC version is only optimized for the console, and we think fans and new players are going to be spending a lot of time cultivating worlds and controlling these giant superheroes.”

“In Reus, you control powerful giants that help you shape the planet to your will. You can create mountains and oceans, forests and more. Enrich your planet with plants, minerals and animal life. There is only one thing on the planet that you do not control: mankind, with all their virtues and and all their vices. You can shape their world, but not their will. Provide for them and they may thrive. Give them too much, and their greed may gain the upper hand.”
