Developer Simogo’s wonderful-looking “euphoric music video dream” Sayonara Wild Hearts finally has a release date and it’s coming very soon; it’ll be heading to Switch, Apple devices via Apple Arcade, and PlayStation 4, next Thursday, 19th September.
Sayonara Wild Hearts, according to Simogo (the studio behind the exceptional Year Walk, Device 6, and Beat Sneak Bandit), is an attempt to create “an action game that felt inviting, without compromising what makes an action game good: the thrill”.
It stars a woman spirited away to a world of neon lights and euphoric pop, where she meets her alter-ego The Fool, for a game about “being awesome, riding motorcycles, skateboarding, dance battling, shooting lasers, wielding swords, and breaking hearts at 200 mph”.
