Superhot Launches On PlayStation 4 Today
Superhot, the time altering first-person shooter, is set to launch on PlayStation 4 this week. Players in Europe can purchase the game today while those in North America will have to wait until 21 July before they can download it.
The title comes in two flavors. You can get the vanilla game for $24.99 or the special Superhot VR version that has its own levels and support the PlayStation’s virtual reality headset for the same price. You can grab both editions of the game in a bundle that costs just $34.99, while PlayStation Plus members can get a discount.
Superhot originally launched on PC on February 25, 2016 and was then ported to Xbox One in May of the same year. Created by the Superhot Team, it began life as a browser-based flash game before it saw success on Steam Greenlight and Kickstarter. Having ended up with more than $240,000 in funds, the team also began work on a virtual reality version of the title with exclusive levels and challenges.
It received mostly positive reviews upon release, with specific praise for its time-based shooting mechanic that injected more strategy and thinking into a genre typically defined by intense action and lightning fast reflexes.

I watched this on YouTube awhile back and could not wait for the release and cannot believe its here. Really want to play it but unfortunately cannot as I do not have a ps4 that is readily available to play those games. The game itself seems interesting and has an interesting concept. The mechanics also really look good in the game and would make someone want to play it.
