San Diego Comic-Con witnesses the surprise announcement from Squanch Games, as they unveil that their popular comedic sci-fi shooter, High On Life, is now readily available on the PlayStation Store. Having previously delighted Xbox console and PC players, the game can now be accessed by PlayStation enthusiasts for $59.99.
A Triumph of Fan Support
Speaking about the overwhelming response received since High On Life’s initial launch in December, Mike Fridley, the Studio Director at Squanch, expressed his gratitude to the dedicated fans. “The fans have spoken. And spoken. And spoken,” says Fridley. “We’ve been thrilled with High On Life’s reception since it launched in December. Our PlayStation fans have been slightly less thrilled, which is why we’re so excited to share that it’s coming their way very soon. Like now soon! Thank you for your patience!”
The Hilarious Quest for Salvation
High On Life follows the hilarious misadventures of a lackadaisical high-school graduate, who, in the aftermath of an alien invasion, unexpectedly becomes Earth’s last hope. These intergalactic creeps, fueled by their insatiable desire for intoxication, find humans to be their ultimate source of elation. As a result, the only viable course of action is to morph into a bounty hunter, diligently pursue the key members of the alien cartel, and quash their intoxicating aspirations. And just to add to the amusement, the guns talk, and they’re genuinely funny.
Upcoming DLC Update – High On Knife
Squanch Games has more in store for fans with the announcement of their first DLC update, High On Knife, slated to launch in the coming fall. The expansion will introduce a brand-new talking gun character named Harper, voiced by none other than Sarah Sherman from Saturday Night Live.
