GungHo Online Entertainment America, Inc. (GOEA) and Seattle-based development studio Camouflaj announced today that the critically acclaimed stealth-action masterpiece République will release on the PlayStation 4 digitally and in retail stores on March 22 in North America and later this spring for Europe.
On the same day, the fifth and final episode, Terminus, will be available for download on PC and mobile devices.
The PS4 version, distributed by ATLUS, will include the complete series for $24.99/CA $39.99.
NIS America will also distribute a limited “Contraband Edition” of the game for $44.99 in their online store, which includes République-themed physical goods such as the soundtrack and The Manifesto, a 160 page book detailing about life inside Metamorphosis.
Unique to the PS4 version of République is a new control scheme allowing players to control Hope, a young woman held captive inside Metamorphosis, a shadowy totalitarian state ruled by the omnipresent Overseer. By hacking into the secret nation’s elaborate surveillance network, players guide Hope on a treacherous and thrilling journey to freedom.
République’s highly anticipated fourth episode – “God’s Acre” – released on PC and mobile devices in December and is available for purchase with the full season on Steam for $24.99 or by episodes on mobile devices for $4.99 each on both the App Store and Google Play. Those who purchased the full season will receive Terminus on March 22.
The PS4 version is available as an entire season on March 22 at North American retailers and digitally through the PlayStation Network. The Contraband Edition is available on NIS America’s online store in limited quantities.
