Lonely Mountains: Snow Riders is a really cool skiing game from Megaton Industries that arrived on Xbox, Game Pass, and Steam at the beginning of the year. A PlayStation 5 version was due to arrive this week, but unfortunately, Sony players will have to remain lonely for a little longer. The PlayStation version has been delayed at the last minute. When, oh when will Team Sony get to climb the lonely mountains?
The developer explains the delay:
‘We were very set on the December 3rd date, but unfortunately a last-minute bug has forced us to delay,’ said Megagon co-founder Daniel Helbig. ‘Me and the team are truly sorry for the disappointment. Rest assured, we are working hard on a fix, and are optimistic that the game will be released the following week.’
A week isn't that long a wait! Why, just recently I had to wait to play the Xbox version cooperatively because my co-op partner had not progressed far enough to unlock multiplayer yet. Darn it, game makers, just let us play together right out of the gate! Playing cooperatively is a lot of fun, though. See our original impressions article to learn how multiplayer works.
Lonely Mountains: Snow Riders costs $24.99 on Xbox, Steam, and Xbox Game Pass. The PlayStation 5 version will hopefully arrive later this month. Be sure to read up on safe skiing practices, gamers!
