Myst and Riven Remakes Launch on PSVR 2 and PS5 This May
Cyan Worlds has officially announced the release of remastered versions of its iconic 1990s puzzle adventures, Myst and Riven, for the PlayStation 5 and PlayStation VR2 platforms. Scheduled to launch on May 19th, these titles will be available on the PlayStation Store for $35 each. The remakes, which previously debuted on PC in 2021 and 2024 respectively, offer players the flexibility to engage with the games through both traditional flatscreen modes and immersive virtual reality experiences at launch. Faithful to the originals, the updates transform the classic point-and-click still frames into fully explorable 3D environments while preserving the intricate, logic-based puzzles that defined the series. Myst invites players to explore a mysterious island through environmental clues, while its sequel, Riven, expands on this formula with a more complex narrative and interconnected world. Both games are renowned for their challenging nature, often requiring careful observation and deduction. This release marks a significant expansion for these classic titles, bringing them to a major console VR ecosystem and allowing a new generation of gamers to experience these seminal works in modern graphical fidelity.
