To get the game to consoles, SOEDESCO teamed up with developer Abbey Games. According to Bas Zalmstra, co-founder and technical lead of Abbey games, the game plays surprisingly well with a controller, with Zalmstra saying:
“The controller interface got a lot of attention, and you notice that. Playing Reus from the couch is a great and smooth experience. We are very happy with how the port turned out and we are very excited for Reus‘ PS4 and Xbox One release.”
Describing the game, the developers have said:
“In Reus, you control powerful giants that help you shape the planet to your will. You can create mountains and oceans, forests and more. Enrich your planet with plants, minerals and animal life. There is only one thing on the planet that you do not control: mankind, with all their virtues and and all their vices. You can shape their world, but not their will. Provide for them and they may thrive. Give them too much, and their greed may gain the upper hand.”
