Giana Sisters Runs@1080P/60FPS On PS4 & XB1

Amidst of all these big announcements in the gaming industry, the next gen release of an indie game like Giana Sisters: Twisted Dreams might be overlooked. That would be unfortunate, as this a pretty good platform game; we’ve contacted German studio Black Forest Games to know more about these versions and their future plans. Today we’re giving you a few tidbits on the technical side; they confirmed that Giana Sisters will run at 1080P@60FPS on both PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, and they’re relieved to be working on next generation hardware at long last as, in their words, PlayStation 3 & Xbox 360 became a pain in the end.

Yes [to 1080P@60FPS]. This provides a very smooth gameplay experience. We had no issues getting there, remember Giana is already running on last gen and Wii U.

For Giana we didn’t even come close to the limits of one or the other console. We are very happy that we finally have a new console generation to work with. Last gen really became a pain at the end of their lifecycle.

However, the new multiplayer mode that just became available on Steam for the PC version won’t be featured at launch on consoles. Here’s why:

For the release the multiplayer mode is not included. We will wait for the feedback from the PC community first so we can implement most wanted changes. But there are good chances the mp-mode ‘Dream Rush’ will find its way to consoles as already after the first day out the community go crazy about it.

The PS4 and XboxOne versions are completely reworked. Some peaks in difficulty have been adjusted, there are reset-points in the bossfights, so you don’t have to start from the beginning of the fight with every death. Last but not least you are able to directly access each world without having completed the ones before.
