Fez Coming to PCs on May 1

Mac version is en route, and it might make an appearance on Vita.

No Caption Provided

Rumors about Fez escaping the confines of Xbox Live Arcade existed even before the game was released on Xbox 360, but it’s official: Fez will arrive on Steam on May 1.

Designer Phil Fish announced the news this morning on Twitter, and is currently answering questions about the port and Fez through an Ask Me Anything on Reddit.

Fez is coming to PC first, but will eventually be released on Mac, as well. Fish is also “working with Sony” about a possible Vita port, but can’t “100% confirm that yet.”

Fish also commented on what he’s been up to since Fez was released into the world.

“A lot of non-creative work,” he said. “I haven’t really ‘made’ anything since the game came out. a necessary evil, I suppose. But life has generally been really good!”

He also revealed something that is currently driving Jeff and I nuts: there are undiscovered secrets in Fez.

What?

People evolve and adapt. As a result there is now a PC version of Fez.

Your hurt feelings about words this guy said ages ago are worth literally nothing.

Having played this game already, I still fail to see the appeal. "It insists upon itself" sums up my feelings on it succinctly.

NOBODY should buy this.

The hipster piece of shit dev does not deserve our PC-gamer money.

He initially said PCs are not for gaming and only good for Excel tables. He also said Japanese games suck.

But I wouldn't expect Patrick to know such things or just sweep it under the rug, anyway.

I'm going to buy it because I want to play it.

Now what? Huh?

It would have been good if the Linux version plans mentioned in the AMA were mentioned in the article too. It's becoming more relevant as a platform as far as reporting in gaming sites goes. :)

<p>Until Fish is also a homophobic asshole who funds horrible things with his profits, I'd put him closer to Tom Crews than Card. Fish can keep being an idiot who I'll just ignore the comments of, as long as he keeps making fun games.</p><p>I'll grab this on Vita if I can, otherwise PC will be nice for the fullscreen expereince. Either way happy for the chance to play.</p>

Good news, crossing this off my PC-port wish list. Next item on the agenda is Dust: An Elysian Tail.

Looks like you can cross that one off too, now. I'M HYPE

I don't know anything about it's creator. All I know is it's very pretty but I found myself looking for what to do and getting bored rather quickly. I have a feeling it's made to be enjoyed by very chill people who do not fall asleep easily.

Would anyone like to mention the part where he said 3D is a gimmick and nintendo handhelds are all terrible?

Then when when Destructiod reported on it he called them terrible journalists?

NO?

Well I guess I will

This was 3 days ago by the way

All I can think about (other than those undiscovered secrets) is how the puzzles that use vibration will work...a lot of Fez's design seemed pretty 360- or at least console-specific

Well I will definitely be playing it with a controller. I didn't know it had vibration tied in with puzzles. Perhaps screen shake effect for the players using keyboard.
