Ninjas across the globe rejoice! The Messenger lands on PlayStation 4 on March 19, 2019

Sabotage Studio announced today via the PlayStation Blog that The Messenger, crowned Best Indie Debut game at The Game Awards 2018, will launch on the PlayStation 4 on March 19, 2019 for $19.99 USD / 24.99$ CAD.

Players can also look forward to more content for free this summer with a whole new (and playable at PAX East 2019 in the indie MEGABOOTH) DLC called Picnic Panic. The tropics-inspired update promises to deliver on a fantastic new standalone storyline and a handful of new levels spreading across Voodkin Island.


As a demon army besieges his village, a young ninja ventures through a cursed world, to deliver a scroll paramount to his clan’s survival. What begins as a classic action platformer soon unravels into an expansive time-traveling adventure full of thrills, surprises, and humor. • Dynamic, acrobatic gameplay and ultra tight controls worthy of an epic ninja adventure. • Character upgrades, new abilities, hidden levels, and branching paths to discover. • Meticulously designed 8-bit and 16-bit sprites, animations, and backgrounds in the spirit of the classics. • A memorable cast of offbeat villains, bosses, and associates. • Original soundtrack by renowned chiptune composer Rainbowdragoneyes, handmade using Famitracker.
