PS4 Getting New Q*Bert Game

Q*Bert Rebooted, the newest version of the classic arcade game that originally launched for PC last summer, is coming to PlayStation consoles very soon.

Sony announced Friday that the "completely reimagined" game will be released for PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, and PlayStation Vita on February 17. Pricing was not announced, but the PC edition sells for $5, so we're expecting something close to that.

What's new with Q*Bert Rebooted? For one, instead of cubes, this game has hexagons, which very much changes level design. The game also comes with new features such as time and score challenges, as well as new enemies, playable characters, power-ups, traps, and more.

If you'd rather not play Q*Bert with hexagons, not to worry, as Q*Bert Rebooted also comes with the original game, just as you remember it.

"Q*Bert Rebooted is the equivalent of your old backyard treehouse refurbished by Bob Vila: same nostalgic joy, but magically just better," developer LOOT Entertainment writes on the PlayStation Blog.

The game also features Cross-Buy support, meaning one purchase entitles you to play the game across PS3, PS4, and PS Vita.
