Dear Esther will arrive on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One on September 20, developer The Chinese Room and publisher Curve Digital announced today. It'll cost $10.

The spooky narrative-driven exploration game's next-generation edition, called Dear Esther: Landmark Edition, is tweaked to "finesse the experience on consoles," with graphic and gameplay adjustments. Developers Jessica Curry, Dan Pinchbeck, and Rob Briscoe will also provide the director's commentary mode for Dear Esther, giving interested players a behind-the-scenes look into the game's process.

Dear Esther was originally released on PC in 2012; its console release will kick off a celebration of its legacy. On September 30, The Guardian is holding an event in London to discuss the game's impact and development. Tickets are £10 and available through The Guardian. On October 14, a live playthrough and soundtrack performance of Dear Esther will be held at the Milton Court Concert Hall in London. Tickets are £22.50 and available through The Barbican.
