Moon releases for PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 on December 16

Onion Games has announced that Moon will release for PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 on December 16. Moon has also been announced for PC via Steam, and a release date for that version is said to be coming soon.

Sometimes referred to as Moon: Remix RPG Adventure, this game is known for defying and unwrapping common RPG genre tropes. Publisher Onion Games calls Moon an anti-RPG, and the game was a large source of inspiration for Undertale. It originally released on the original PlayStation in 1997 in Japan and had never received an official English release prior to 2020, when it was re-released for Nintendo Switch in August.

A description can be found below via the PS Store page.

In 1997, the now legendary anti-RPG “moon” launched in Japan. Now, under the watchful eye of its original creators, it's finally in English!

Have you ever felt it odd that the heroes of RPGs go around opening villagers' closets and stealing from them? Or that they travel the world indiscriminately killing all monsters they meet? This game looks at the RPGs we all know and love from a new perspective.

Story

He falls into a place called 'Moon World', and thus begins a search for love in order to recover the lost moonlight.

Here, the mighty hero of Moon World murders innocent animals for experience,
but the boy's growth comes from saving the souls of the animals and gathering the love in the world.
