Critically-acclaimed indie game Journey gets an unexpected iOS release
2
Journey is one of those titles that contributed to the development of an entirely new game genre – atmospheric adventure, also known as “walking simulators.” Initially released for the PlayStation 3 back in 2012, the game was ported on PlayStation 4 and PC in 2015 and 2019, respectively.
Today's announcement that Journey is available on iOS was completely unexpected, since neither the developer thatgamecompany nor the publisher Annapurna Interactive hinted to a mobile release.
In Journey, players will explore the remains of an ancient world to try and discover its secrets. You can invite a companion to help you in your quest or you can play alone. The developers promise gorgeous visuals and touch-responsive controls on both iPhone and iPad.
