Strategy Shooter Void Bastards Will Makes Its Way to PS4 Next Month

4
A PEGI rating surfaced at the start of the year, suggesting the BioShock and System Shock 2-inspired Void Bastards would soon make its way to PS4. Well, the ratings board hasn’t steered us wrong yet. The space-set strategy shooter will come to the PlayStation 4 and Nintendo Switch in just a few weeks on May 7th.

Void Bastards developer Blue Manchu announced the news on the game’s official Twitter page, alongside a brand-new trailer. Check it out in the post below:


The shooter first launched on the PC and Xbox One in 2019. Jonathan Chey, former developer on System Shock 2 and BioShock, helmed this particular project. Unsurprisingly, players are bound to notice the influence of both nestled within the Void Bastards experience. Blue Manchu’s title still offers something fresh, however. This is most notably evident in its use of strategy for navigation and other gameplay mechanics.

In Void Bastards, players will direct the titular rag-tag team as they escape from the Sargasso Nebula. This basic premise plays into the tactical elements of navigation. Players will need to strategically determine where the team goes, how they manage their time there, and who they’ll have to combat once settled in. Though this will prove challenging, Chey once revealed that it is possible to beat Void Bastards without dying. It appears PS4 and Switch fans are in for quite the treat.

Cent On the bright side it would probably be cheaper. Games on the switch that aren't gonna be super popular usually are fairly cheap which is nice if you ever want to try something.


Should be free tbh I don't think I would feel right paying for something like this.

That is a good thing about games like this, I've picked up a few indie games which are cheaper and they still end up fun.


Indie games were always a great time killer. I remember playing Total Miner: Forge with my friends for days on end we loved it. Then Castleminer Z was a huge one that I spent so much time on. I was even tempted to buy it on steam a month ago to relive the fun lol.

9nty Another cartoon games that most of the people that play on ps4 wont like the game and its a waste of time adding a game where people wont play.


I'm sure it'll have a small playerbase when it first comes out but after that I don't see anyone even touching the game. It'll end up on the free games list sooner than later.

Cent Looks like a strange game but I do like the way it looks for some reason. Nice to see the PS4 still releasing games even though I don't play it.


I'm guessing because it's completely different to anything so the artwork is appealing.

This game looks so boring... no point of bringing games out at the end of PS life.
