Planning on getting this at some time, the demo was gorgeous. 4K @ 30 fps sounds good. This is a port done right!

It runs at native 1080p at 60 frames per second - but that's just the beginning of the story. Frozenbyte's impressive Trine 2 has migrated to PlayStation 4 in fine form - not only does it combine the optimal mix of resolution and frame-rate, but it's the only game to support stereoscopic 3D, running internally at an effective 1080p120 in the process. Indeed, according to the developer, Trine 2 could even hit 4K at 30fps should Sony ever unlock the output of the PS4 to support ultra-HD resolution.

We thoroughly enjoyed our time with Frozenbyte's beautiful puzzle-based platformer when it appeared late last year on the Wii U, with the interesting physics-based gameplay mechanics and impressive rendering technology making it easy to become immersed in the vibrant and colourful world on display. However, with PS4, Frozenbyte has handed in the definitive console version of the game, with native 1080p visuals, 3D support and slick 60fps gameplay that is rarely achieved in the console space.

It is a beautiful game there is no doubt about that.
 
Oops, maybe Anderson or another mod can move into the PS4 indie thread if that's better?

Like Plainy said, no reason for it not to be a separate thread, too. That goes for any indy game.

Looks great. Jin's PS4 pics are what first clued me in to this title. I could play on the 360, but I think I'll wait to play on the PS4 instead.
 
If it hits 2160p, it'd be the first such game i would've heard of. Artistically, it looks a very visually pleasing game too.
 
Obscene Jester is right this game looks sweet in 3D, I Downloaded the demo and plyed through it in 3D. Very nice.
 
Is Trine 2 that impressive on a technical level? I think not.

For the 2D genre I think it is.

I usually hate 2.5D games because polygons usually make the art look bad imo. But this game looks gorgeous. Like paintings come to life.

I'm anxious to see where 2D games go from here visually.
