Hello PlayStation Blog readers! We’re thrilled to bring you the news today that A Monster’s Expedition, the award-winning, open-world puzzle game, is available today for PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5. In A Monster’s Expedition you play the role of the titular Monster, exploring an archipelago museum. Knock down trees and solve puzzles to move from island to island, and explore the hilarious Museum of Human Englandland, made by Monsterkind who only vaguely understands humanity.

We’re excited to be bringing A Monster’s Expedition to PlayStation, especially after the warm reception we received with our release of Bonfire Peaks. The PlayStation versions contain all of the updates to date including our hefty Museum Expansion Update, and today’s new Hint Update.

The Hint Update is designed to allow new players to come into the game with less pressure and stress about getting stuck, and for returning players to more easily be able to achieve 100% completion. Players can access the settings menu to enable hints about where to go, how to solve each island, and even how to find Friends, the game’s most difficult-to-discover type of secret. The Hint System is fully customizable – turn on as much or as little as you want and enjoy the game in whatever way works best for you.

Our goal with hints is that they should push you towards the solution or confirm you’re on the right track, without denying you the “aha” moment of working out the details. We do this by showing you where you need to place logs to reach the next island – seeing the end state is often enough to work backwards and make the rest much simpler. And for the hidden Friends, the biggest challenge is just in working out where to start looking – hints for those
