In a new post on the official PlayStation blog, Martin shared the basic description of the game and announced the exciting news (via IGN).
"Heart Forth, Alicia is a '90s-inspired adventure that combines the electrifying gameplay of Castlevania: Symphony of the Night, the expansive world & dungeons of the Zelda series, and the unfolding story style of Xenogears... except it's a little darker and has its own fantasy twist. Up till May last year, I'd been the sole developer of this game for a few years," he said in his new post. "Thanks to the incredible support of the Kickstarter crowd and the outlets that covered the campaign, the game grew into a much bigger project, and it's thanks to them that we're able to bring the game to PS4 and PS Vita in early 2016."
Martin also spoke about what to expect at GDC from him and his team this week.
"This is both really exciting and thrilling for me, as it will be the first time the game will be shown in public after several years in the making," he explained. "The team and I have worked our best to make this PS4 demo as fun and engaging as possible, so it'll be really rewarding to watch people play through it."
