Surprise Release: Acclaimed PS4 Game Gets Free PS5 Upgrade

Annapurna Interactive recently held an exciting showcase, offering gaming enthusiasts a tantalizing preview of what’s on the horizon from both the publisher and its talented developers this year. A key highlight of the event was the announcement that one of their critically acclaimed titles from the PS4 days will be getting a complimentary upgrade for the PS5, available immediately and at no extra charge.

### Sayonara Wild Hearts Upgraded for PS5 Today

Fans of the mesmerizing game Sayonara Wild Hearts, crafted by Simogo, have something to cheer about. The game now boasts a brand-new PS5 version. Starting today, the PS5 upgrade offers stunning 4K visuals and the potential for up to 120 frames per second for those with compatible displays. Players are in for a treat with the introduction of haptic feedback features through the DualSense controller. Additionally, the upgrade introduces a unique Remix Arcade mode that invites players to tackle endlessly replayable levels in pursuit of top scores.

For those who already own the PS4 version of Sayonara Wild Hearts, transitioning to the PS5 version is completely free, provided both systems are linked to the same account. For newcomers eager to dive into this immersive experience, the game is priced at $12.99 in the PS Store.

The official game description sets the stage with an intriguing premise: “As the heart of a young woman breaks, the balance of the universe is disturbed.” A mystical diamond butterfly appears in her dreams, guiding her along a celestial highway where she encounters her alter ego, The Fool, who is a masked biker.

Players are promised a journey that weaves through a specially composed pop soundtrack, encouraging them to chase scores and seek harmony within the universe’s heart. This journey explores the narratives of diverse characters like Little Death and her intriguing allies: Dancing Devils, Howling Moons, Stereo Lovers, and Hermit 64.

But that’s not all—Annapurna Interactive also shared exciting updates on three other upcoming games. Mark your calendars for April 15, when Lushfoil Photography Sim launches on PS5, offering players the chance to capture stunning imagery in breathtaking locations such as South Tyrol, Italy, and South West Australia. Next on the release calendar is To a T, from the creative mind behind Katamari Damacy, Keita Takahashi, set to debut on PS5 on May 28. Rounding out the announcements is Wheel World, a solo journey through the world of bicycle racing, slated for a summer release on PS5.
