“Eastward is set in a society that is fast hurtling down the path of destruction, as an unknown and toxic presence begins to spread and poison the air. Those who could escape flocked to villages underground to start a new life, and as new generations were forged, they soon forgot all memories of the blue skies above. Sam and John, Eastward’s unlikely duo, join together as the hope of a thriving outside world beckons. The duo must escape the tyrannical clutches of subterranean society and travel across the world by rail to uncover the mystery of Sam’s powers, and the truth behind the deadly miasma.”

Developer Pixpil alongside publisher Chucklefish, has teamed up with Skybound Games and iam8bit to release the physical release, which will ship from May 24th around the world.

The physical copy of Eastward features the vibrant artwork of the game and will stand out on any collector’s shelf. It also comes with an exclusive chibi sticker set. It will be available in retailers worldwide as well as online stores. 

Meanwhile, the exclusive Collectors Edition of the game and the vinyl soundtrack can only be pre-ordered through iam8bit. 

Details on the Collectors Edition or the vinyl weren’t available at the time of writing, but I’ll update as they go live.
