RIME raised the roof during Sony’s Gamescom press conference last year, and while it didn’t have quite the same impact on this occasion – it’s a known quantity, after all – it’s still looking ridiculously pretty on the PlayStation 4. Developed by Spanish studio Tequila Works, the release evokes memories of ICO, with its mysterious island setting and elaborate architecture.
The title will see you exploring the abovementioned location, solving puzzles, and trying to answer questions pertaining to your own being. Sure, that sounds like existential nonsense – and it is – but who really cares when the game looks as pretty as this? It’s almost like The Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker had beautiful babies with Fumito Ueda. And that’s a good thing, by the way.

Is this an abstract platformer I'm seeing? Takes a few hits of LSD! O.O
It honestly looks brilliant. I'm so excited for this.
This website is full of cry babies. I for one think the conference was rock solid except for the vita part ( by the way im used to it now, just sell your vitas ). Driveclub, bloodbourne, the order, rime hellbakde etc all looked pretty and interesting.
Whereas, microsoft only accounced tomb raider as a exclusive and rest of it we all knew. Sunset, halo, beta this beta that, cod .... And some interesting indies like excapist and the below.
Sony won
I want this game downloading on my PS4 right now....this minute and not a second later. It's been far too long for a good game of this genre to be made. Serious PS2 Ico and SoC flashbacks come to memory. I'm also keen to see more of 'The Witness', it's gone a little quiet on that one.
Wind Waker is what I think of when I see Rime they both have this timeless charm.
Looks nice but I don't think I'd enjoy it
@tulaib_100 I agree, I don't get the complaints either.
Rime and Wild look absolutely incredible.
I didn't catch the release date for RIME
It defintly reminds me of ICO and SotC - looks really intrestkng il have to keep an eye on it lol
Looks great, this, wild and no mans sky look to be some of the greatest "indy" titles ever made. Hate thay word. Now that I think of it can we consider Wild an Indy?
