The game will be available this summer from developers The Chinese Room, a spiritual successor to Dear Esther. At this time, the first person adventure title will only be coming to PS4.

"Everyone's time is split between chewing through bugs and carving out time for as much polish and finesse as we can. There's always something that can be improved. Late tweaks to design, signposting, player flow, discovery--this is all still happening. Rotating a prop by a few degrees can make a dramatic difference to how you navigate a space, or the likelihood of encouraging an area to be explored in more detail."
"Small adjustments to things like audio volume, or the area boundaries of ambient or procedural sound, can have an impact on the emotional tone of a space or moment, which has a knock-on effect to things like pacing or the interpretation of a story beat."
In other words, there's still a lot going on! There are clearly hundreds of small factors to consider that affect the end product, and the developers are tweaking anything and everything that can change the experience for players. Head to the blog post for more--a launch date is coming soon.
