PlayStation 3's Journey has received many accolades for being one of the year's best indie games, featuring a thoughtful gaming experience accompanied by a gorgeous musical score and beautiful, sometimes ethereal graphics. Coming in September, you will have the chance to own the official art book and view the journey of Journey from concept to final product. As a bonus, those that purchase the book will also receive a voucher to download the soundtrack as well. No specific release date has been given at this time.
This book, designed and written by Matt Nava, art director on Journey, provides an insider’s view into the stylistic influences, narrative functions, and game design goals that shaped the final look of the game. Readers will discover how Journey’s landscapes, cut-scenes, and much-loved robed traveler came to be. For your enjoyment, The Art of Journey will come bound as an embossed hardcover book filled with gorgeous concept art, intricate pencil drawings, and 3D models printed in full color on art-quality paper.
In addition, the book has an innovative “augmented reality” feature powered by the Daqri 4D platform. By downloading a free companion app, readers will be able to point their smartphone or tablet’s camera at special images and see animated 3D models appear straight from the game. It’s a truly unique and innovative way to more fully experience the artwork of Journey.
