The Cave coming for free on Playstation Plus later this month

Posted by George on Mar 4th, 2013



SEGA’s joint game with Double Fine Productions (Brutal Legends, Stacking) and Ron Gilbert (Maniac Mansion, The Secret of Monkey Island) will be free for Playstation Plus owners later this month. So if you already got a Playstation Plus account, this should be welcoming news to your ears. This is for US Playstation Plus members, Europeans are getting Mass Effect 3 and Dead or Alive 5 for free (so I don’t think they will be crying).

Don’t know if you’d like the game? Read our review! You know, we do those, right?

The Cave Vinyl toys are being sold/given away at PAX

Posted by Shigs on Aug 22nd, 2012



From Rob Gilbert’s latest Twitter, it seems that the Sega booth will have some toys based on the adventurers from Ron Gilbert’s “The Cave”. What the price of these toys is unkown, but I know I’d love to get my hands on them. Perhaps Sega will be giving some out for free stuff Friday, or is Double Fine flipping the bill for these neat figs?

Double Fine and SEGA title revealed to be “The Cave”

Posted by Aki-at on May 24th, 2012

SEGA’s latest partnership with a third party developer ought to get a few fans excited, as Double Fine will be teaming up with the Blue Skies developer to develop a 2.5D adventure. The game will allow players to take control of one of seven characters, all with their unique abilities and story. Being headed by Ron Gilbert, the title is set to take players into the Cave, which happened to be a talking cave earlier in development, a talking cave that has tried its hand in dating. If that has interested you, head over to Destructoid for further information on the game. It is set to be available for Playstation 3, Xbox360 and PC with a release date sometime in 2013.

SEGA publishing new game by Double Fine Productions

Posted by Barry the Nomad on May 22nd, 2012



SEGA’s Twitter has recently posted a mystery image on Flickr, seen here, of a forest setting with a chunk missing from the image and a question mark. Clearly they are teasing a new game, but what game could it be? Well, we shared the initial image on our Facebook page, and a kind reader by the name of Marius Theßeling speculated that the art matched the style of Ron Gilbert’s unannounced upcoming game from Double Fine Productions. And sure enough, it matches up! We simply grabbed the image from SEGA’s flicker, and dropped in all the character art from Gilbert’s blog onto the image. Just like a puzzle, an image came together and you can see the completed image above. So it’s official: SEGA is teaming with Double Fine to publish a game! Sorry if we ruined the surprise, SEGA. But all the pieces were there.
