The cult indie title Undertale will launch on the PlayStation 4 and Vita on 15th August – and yes, it’ll be completely cross-buy. Those who pre-order the game on the PlayStation Network will get a spiffing new PS4 dynamic theme as crafted by Truant Pixel’s fair hand, which you can preview on the PlayStation Blog.
If you’re not a fan of digital downloads for whatever reason, then Fangamer will be creating a limited edition physical version, which is currently scheduled to ship in September. You can pre-order that through here, and it includes a soundtrack, art booklet, a music box locket, and sheet music (!!!) for six of the release’s songs.
August is looking like some month on the PS4, isn’t it? But then, 2017 could end tomorrow and it would still have been an amazing year for games.

It does look bizarre though. Will give it a go.
This and Sonic Mania on the same day?
August wins.
Easily my favorite game of 2015. What a magical experience that was.
Don't really want to repurchase it, but that PS4 theme is awesome.
My only suggestion for people is this: play all of the routes to get the full experience. They all come together to make the game greater than the sum of its parts, imo.
Preordered 15 euros.
Bought it on hype and couldn't get into it past the first hour. The soundtrack is superb though.
Still can't bring myself to do a genocide run. I know I should but it's so horrible and I care too much about the characters now. I haven't experienced THAT fight with THAT music however. Might buy it on PS4 and finally do that run then.
Played it on PC more than I care to admit, so I'll give this a pass. This port feels a bit pointless to me but if more people get to play it, that's better than nothing I guess.
Very excited for this. Got suckered into watching it on YouTube since I thought it was never coming to PS4, but the game is still a blast and I will definitely be getting it.
Definitely on my radar for the ps vita. But i am sure i still be playing trail of cold steet 2 in mid august. Maybe a christmas present to myself.
I love the soundtrack but have never played. The cross buy has me tempted.
Just pre-ordered the VITA Standard Edition
Day one on vita
@brendon987 im still only on chapter two of trails 1 and loving it so far! Have the second waiting for me when I am (eventually!) done.
Really want this, but I am more than a little excited about Sonic Mania so think this will have to wait a little while; particularly with thimbleweed park, uncharted and yakuza the following week! And then of course danganronpa 3 and ys 8 for vita in September!
How much is this in USD?
@Hero_of_Hyrule On the PlayStation Store it's $14.99, the standard physical edition is $25, and the collector's edition is $64.
Seems to be the same prices for PS4 and PS Vita, and the digital version is cross-buy
It's a fantastic game. I already played it on PC, so I'm not going to get it again on PS4.
@Ralizah
Thanks for the advice. Do you have an average of total time or number of playthroughs that would take?
@sinalefa Two playthroughs if you fulfill the pacifist route conditions during the initial neutral run, because the neutral route can lead directly into the pacifist route. Each playthrough can take between 6 - 8 hours on average (although the genocide route could take you longer if you struggle against some of the really brutal boss fights in that route).
I've seen like 2 or 3 videos from Pewdiepie when he did the walkthrough of this and I was loving it so much that I had to stop watching! I've been waiting all this time for this to come to PS4!!!!
And the music, oh man, so good
Cross-buy is nice, I'll preordered it. Already have it on my pc but I don't think I ever installed it, I want to play it on tv and psvita.
Digital is the way to go since it's cross buy.
@AFCC I hear the game music from smooth mcgroove channel, it's soo good

@JoeBlogs I think all that's been said so far is cross buy, so not sure about cross save. I would assume not, as if it was also cross save, I feel like they'd have announced that at the same time.
Amazing game, I recommend it highly to anyone
@Ralizah
Thanks again, it sounds very achievable then.
BTW, I will be sending you a Switch friend request, same name as in here.
@sinalefa Cool!
@JoeBlogs Yeah, the game does some... weird stuff that seems like it should only be possible on a PC. Not sure how those parts are going to play out on consoles.
