PS4 and Xbox One players will get Annihilation “in the next few days,” and it’ll come withpreviously PC-onlybonuses like New Game+, Speedrun mode, and new weapons, finishing moves, and outfits.

Anthony reviewedRUINERfor us last September. He dug the “exceptional gun and melee based combat” and said it would “fit perfectly in a dark room with your headphones cranked to maximum.”

If you originally passed the game up but are feeling more open to it nowadays, it’s half price right now on PC and PS4 (with a similar discount planned for Xbox One in March).
