Beyond A Steel Sky Comes To Consoles In Late November

Microids and Revolution Software announced earlier today that they will be releasing Beyond A Steel Sky onto consoles this coming November. From the mind of Charles Cecil, creator of the Broken Sword series, with art direction by Dave Gibbons, the artist behind Watchmen, this game is designed to be the spiritual successor to the 1994 PC title Beneath A Steel Sky. This game will take you back to the glory years of that franchise as the storyline behind it clearly has the heart and soul of what the original packed into it. Now you'll be able to experience it in a couple of months as it will release on Nintendo Switch as well as both current and next-gen versions of Xbox and PlayStation on November 30th, 2021. Enjoy the latest trailer for the game below!
