The critically acclaimed narrative card game will be available to download 17 March on PS4, 18 March for Nintendo Switch, and 19 March on Xbox One. All versions will have a 20% launch discount (PS+ subs only on PS4).
The debut title from developer Echodog Games, Signs of the Sojourner was released last year for Windows and macOS. Praised for its heartfelt story and card-based conversations, Signs of the Sojourner featured on Game of the Year lists from various sites and channels, including Get Indie Gaming, Giant Bomb, Paste Magazine, and Vice. It also won Edge magazine’s ‘Artisan Award’, and was nominated for ‘Best Storytelling’ at the Golden Joystick Awards.
“It’s been so exciting to see the reception!” says Dyala Kattan-Wright, game designer and founder of Echodog Games.
“One of our goals was to explore themes that we hoped would be highly relatable to most folks–leaving home and returning changed, exploring identity and shifting relationships. It’s been amazing and humbling to see how people relate to different aspects of the game and use it as a lens to examine or reflect on their own experiences.
“And now we’re excited to bring Signs of the Sojourner to a wider audience, and to see what decks and relationships players develop during their journeys in the game.”
