Ukrainian studios Hologryph, TowerHaus and publisher tinyBuild announced great news for console users and those who are waiting for the release of the ambitious PvP/PvE shooter SAND.

Here's What We Know

The developers of the game in an unexpected setting have announced that SAND, which was scheduled for release only in Steam Early Access, will simultaneously be released on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series consoles.

The exact release date of the game is unknown, but it is stated that it will happen before the end of 2025.

Flashback

In the story of SAND, the Austro-Hungarian Empire was the first to explore other planets and after an environmental disaster occurred on the planet Sophie, the Kaiser of Austria-Hungary persuaded the inhabitants of Galicia (modern day Western Ukraine) to go there to establish new settlements.

In terms of gameplay, Sand is reminiscent of Sea of Thieves, but instead of sailing ships, the game will feature a desert that was once the bottom of the sea, and a walking vehicle - the Trumpler, which can be operated by a single player or a small company.

Players will have to use the Trampler to travel around Sofia and fight each other for control of the vehicle, in this case firearms similar to the samples of the early XX century will help.

The game looks interesting and has every chance of success.
