Green Hell coming to PS5, Xbox Series on August 14
A free upgrade for existing owners.
Creepy Jar will release open-world survival game Green Hell for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series on August 14 for $24.99 at launch (with a 20 percent discount for the first two weeks), the developer announced. Users who already own the PlayStation 4 or Xbox One versions will receive a free upgrade. The PlayStation 4 and Xbox One versions will no longer receive updates as Creepy Jar shifts its focus to the newer platforms.
The PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series release brings the console previously unreleased content that until now has been available exclusively for the PC version of Green Hell.
Here is an overview of the new versions, via Creepy Jar:
With the current-generation console version of Green Hell, console players will be able to enjoy updates #17 (Storage & Transportation), #18 (Fortifications), and #19 (Flamekeeper) for themselves for the very first time. And console players can upgrade—for free—to the current-generation version if they have previously purchased either the Xbox One or PlayStation 4 versions of the game.
While the Creepy Jar team is excited to bring Green Hell to current-generation consoles, last-generation consoles will no longer receive updates as the developer focuses on current-gen and beyond. Simply put, the last-generation consoles are unable to shoulder the weight of the newer updates while running at the quality Creepy Jar expects to deliver to players.
It is important to note that due to the discrepancy between current and last-gen console versions in terms of content, neither the Xbox Series X|S or PlayStation 5 versions will be compatible with their previous generation counterparts. As well, there will be no cross-play between versions and no save transfers from last-gen to current.
