Transistor for PlayStation 4 Features
- DualShock 4 Light Bar flashes in sync with the Transistor’s speech
- More than 30 Trophies (including a Platinum Trophy)
- Remote Play & Share Button support (standard for PS4 games)

Transistor for PC Features
- Full controller support & fully remappable controls
- Steamworks support including cloud saves, achievements, & trading cards
- DRM-free: You can play the game offline if you want

PC Minimum System Requirements
OS: Windows 7 or newer
CPU: 2.6GHz Dual Core CPU or greater
RAM: 4GB or greater
GPU: 1GB Video RAM or greater, e.g. Intel HD Graphics 3000, Nvidia 9400 GT, AMD HD 5450
Hard Drive Space: 4GB free

What is the game’s native resolution?
Transistor runs at 1080p on both the PlayStation 4 and PC. The PC version also contains 720p assets for compatibility with less powerful systems.

Will there be a stand-alone DRM-free version of Transistor for PC?
We have no plans for a stand-alone installer for Transistor at this time. The Steam version of the game includes various features that require Steam, such as cloud saves, achievements, and trading cards, and for launch we did not want to create a separate version lacking these features. Note we have put no DRM in Transistor unless you count Steam as a form of DRM. Once you’ve downloaded the game from Steam, you don’t need Steam to be running in order to play.

Transistor is a sci-fi themed action RPG that invites players to wield an extraordinary weapon of unknown origin as they fight through a stunning futuristic city. The game seamlessly integrates thoughtful strategic planning into a fast-paced action experience, melding responsive gameplay and rich atmospheric storytelling. During the course of the adventure, players will piece together the Transistor’s mysteries as they pursue its former owners.

Good job LiK. Now I just need a giant Greg Kasavin's poster in my room, so that I can look at it at night....

Kyoufu · May 13, 2014

Pre-ordered and waiting. Standby for Transistor!

Liha · May 13, 2014

The last question: PC or PS4

Guymelef · May 13, 2014

Can't wait.

wetflame · May 13, 2014

Enjoyed Bastion so will probably pick this up when the price is right. Or immediately.

Sendou · May 13, 2014

Any idea when embargo drops?

LiquidMetal14 · May 13, 2014

Nice to finally see this coming.

krypt0nian · May 13, 2014

Preordered and living for this!

OneUh8 · May 13, 2014

Man I can't wait! Preordered this on the PS4. Is it odd that the thing I am most looking forward to is the soundtrack?

fluffydelusions · May 13, 2014

Any deals out there for this game (PC)?

Goodacre0081 · May 13, 2014

how does the PS+ discount work for this if we pre-order?

Corto · May 13, 2014

Steam for now PS4 latter in the year when I get one. Lovely OT Lik. Great job!

There won't be one.

There isn't one.

TheSlySoul · May 13, 2014

I guess the days of $15 dollar games are getting phased out, huh?

Either way, this game looks awesome and I will Day One it easily. I think I will go with PS4 version because while I have a PC, my PS4 library needs more games. Also, the PC version will probably be sold for 5 bucks in like 4 months.

HORRORSHØW · May 13, 2014

this is coming out next week? whoa, so soon. i'm there day one.

Messiek · May 13, 2014

I'm going to preorder this on my ps4.
It looks so good and fun to play.
1 Week : )

Slowdive · May 13, 2014

Great OT. Can't wait to play this.

Seanspeed · May 13, 2014

I would actually get this Day 1 if it weren't for me being pretty entrenched in a few games as it is. We'll see. Maybe in a few weeks.

Qvoth · May 13, 2014

super excited for this

derExperte · May 13, 2014

No discount on Steam either which is a bummer, I'm sure it would push more people to buy it right away. And what's with the Soundtrack costing 10€ more?

none as far as i know unless you count buying from traders which is slightly cheaper. the devs were smart to not put this game on GMG because we would be able to use the 25% or 20% discount

anyways cannot wait for this game on PC. might buy it alongside wolfenstein

Don't want to derail too much but I thought they originally announced a vita version too...was that cancelled?

AFAIK they never said it was ever coming to vita. but they didn't rule it out as a platform

AEREC · May 13, 2014

I'm thinking they are pretty confident that the reputation they got from Bastion will carry them far.

Gintoki · May 13, 2014

Nice OT. Preordered the game yesterday, can't wait

AkimbO_Arcana · May 13, 2014

Woah I totally forgot about this game, shame on me. Day 1!

kubus · May 13, 2014

Awesome OT! Looks nice on mobile as well. Looking forward to this game.

Also, PSA for cheapass EuroGAF:

If you want to buy this game on PC, you can save some money by buying it directly from Supergiant Games. You get a Steam key at release. They also offer the game+OST bundle.

Transistor
Supergiant: $19.99 (~€14,50, ~£11.85)
Steam: €18,99 / £14.99

Transistor + Soundtrack
Supergiant: $29.98 (~€21,78, ~£17.79)

Sylvatica · May 13, 2014

Nice OT, really looking forward to this.

Sum-Mischief · May 13, 2014

Already pre-ordered ... I feel in love with the game play soon as I saw it.

Acquiescence · May 13, 2014

Still waiting to hear the full-length version of that trailer song.

astonish · May 13, 2014

Grabbing this Day 1, just haven't figured out which platform...

Jb · May 13, 2014

I've purposefully stayed away from most media about this game, I'm hoping to be pleasantly surprised by the experience when it actually comes out.

Phatmac · May 13, 2014

I loved Bastion so much so I hope this is good! Can't wait to play this.

qizah · May 13, 2014

I can't wait. Bastion was awesome, going to pick this up on my PS4, with remote play on Vita I'm pretty excited.

they didnt announce a vita version

AHA-Lambda · May 13, 2014

Requirements list 1GB of vram but then say 9400gt?

Is that right?

MrFrankFontaine · May 13, 2014

Bastion has been sitting in my backlog for too long. Really need to play that one first.
