Right now, High On Life can be downloaded on PlayStation.
Unexpectedly, Xbox 2022’s most popular exclusive has arrived for PlayStation. It’s a huge win for PlayStation, but hell where did it come from?
In general, developers make it a big deal when their exclusive games are released on another platform. This usually happens weeks or months prior to its launch. Spreading out across platforms allows thousands of gamers to finally experience a game they missed at the initial launch, resulting in a new surge of interest. For some reason, this is not the case with high on life.
Squanch Games’ comedic FPS was released first on PC and XboxOne on December 13, 2022. The internet was immediately flooded with videos of sentient talking weapons yelling at players and telling them to stop the game. It was released for Xbox Game Pass the day it launched, so it would be understandable that PlayStation owners felt left out. But not anymore.
High on Lifeis now available for PS4 and PS5 following the announcement made at San Diego Comic-Con. IGN reported that Squanch Games studio director Mike Fridley said, “The fans spoke.” The fans have spoken. And spoken. Since its launch in December, we’ve enjoyed the high on life’ reception. We’re excited that the PlayStation version is coming very soon. Soon! “Thank you for your patience!”
High on Knife was revealed to be a expansion that will release later in the year. Fridley said that the DLC will be “a bit spooky” this time, and may break some players’ dreams for a “while”. It’s surprising that, given the humor of the original game, the DLC will lean heavily into horror.
