Inside

Inside, the mysterious puzzle-filled side-scroller that we’ve raved about a lot, is now out for iOS. You can play the first part for free and pay $7 for the rest.

What’s black, white and red all over and coming this fall for Xbox One and PlayStation 4? A double-pack of Limbo and Inside. Playdead’s pair of stark and beautiful indie platformers hit stores on September 12 for $29.99, courtesy of publisher 505 Games.

Inside publisher Playdead announced today that they’ve been working on a new game. The image they posted appears to show a kid who had landed in a desert with a parachute. Last year, one of Playdead’s co-founders split from the company with a $7 million payout.

Playdead’s Inside now has a demo you can download and try for free on Steam. It popped up yesterday with little fanfare and is about 1.2GB in size. As the studio’s follow up to Limbo and one of the year’s most superb games, you owe it to yourself to see what makes Inside’s haunting, industrial brutalism so special.

Inside’s evocative soundtrack was recorded using a human skull. Seriously? Yes, seriously. Composer/sound designer Martin Stig Andersen has written a fascinating post-mortem for Gamasutra detailing how he gave Playdead’s game its distinctive, otherworldly sound. Give it a read.

Playdead’s excellent side-scrolling puzzle game Inside is now available on PS4. You should definitely play it! Read our review here.

Inside, one of the most critically acclaimed games of 2016 so far, is coming to PS4 on August 23, Sony said today. It was previously only available for Xbox One and PC. Down to console exclusivity!
