Temtem To Make Console Debut Exclusively On PS5

Temtem

Not too long ago, Temtem, a creature collector game akin to Pokémon, revealed its plan to come to consoles. While initially coming to current-gen hardware, it decided to focus on the next-gen and now it’s looking to be a console exclusive for the PS5, according to the PlayStation Blog.

Making its debut on PC earlier this year, Temtem put you in the shoes of a collector of creatures as you capture the 100+ different Tems and maneuver across the six different islands. It isn’t like you’ll be alone, though, as the game is always online and even cross-play enabled.

Currently, the game is able to be pre-ordered for the PS5. If you’re to pre-order, you’ll get to join others and play the game in early access, you also get a new in-game title and two new PSN avatars.

Early access is going to start on December 8.

Crema Games Kiboshes Current-Gen Temtem Release

Temtem

Earlier this week, during the last State of Play, Crema Games revealed they’d be releasing their take on the creature collection genre, Temtem, to next-gen consoles. The game was always going to launch to current-gen consoles. Well, it looks like they’re putting more of a focus on the next-gen.

Instead of launching across all the planned platforms, in a bid to completely embrace the next-generation, they’re kiboshing plans to launch the game to PS4 and Xbox One (but still releasing to the Switch). As to why, they explained how when its Kickstarter booted up, they had little to no information to the next-gen consoles and didn’t plan on launching to the next generation.

Over time, they realized a lot was changing while developing the game. Different standards also existed and different testing would need to be conducted, as well.

Instead of moving forward with a PS4 release as planned, they’re cutting the current generation out. This shouldn’t damper too much, though, considering they’ve left themselves a year’s worth of wiggle room as fans only know 2021 as its release year.

If you were a backer waiting for the release of either PS4 or Xbox One, they haven’t left you high and dry. You have a few different avenues to go down. On one hand, if you plan on getting the next-gen console, you can get your copy of Temtem upgraded. Alternatively, you can opt to change your version to the PC or Switch or simply get a refund.

Creature Collector, Temtem, Launches To PS5 Next Year

Temtem

Initially launched to Steam as early access, Temtem lets you capture creatures with special cards. After you accomplish that, you can send them out to square off in turn-based combat. The latest State of Play has revealed it’s coming to PS5 early 2021.

Concept-wise, it’s fairly standard in the creature-collection genre. You catch Temtems, train them, and in the end, aim to pin them against other tamers to see who trained the best. It does, though, allow for completely co-op adventures and acts as an MMO with competitive play in mind.

Temtem launches to PS5 sometime in 2021.
