I’m just now becoming aware of this news, but I’ve got to be honest: I’m happier than a pig in...well, I’ll say mud, because this is a family blog.
Back on May 31, Limited Run Games—after almost a year of radio silence since the original reveal—officially announced the impending August 1 release offor PS5, Switch and Steam.
