Aphelion is Out Now!

“3, 2, 1…” 

The launch of the Hope-01 mission, and the game, is finally here! Aphelion is out now on PC (Steam), Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5. 

Watch the launch trailer! 

If you get the game within the first day of release on Xbox and PlayStation, you’ll get the Day One Edition as thanks for your support. As well as the game, it comes with a cosmetics pack that has 2 spacesuit variants and 6 backpack accessories: 3 stickers and 3 keychains, referencing our collaboration with the European Space Agency and two of our other well-loved games, Jusant and Lost Records: Bloom & Rage. 

If you’re on Steam, you can get the cosmetics pack in the Deluxe Edition, which is exclusive to Steam and contains the game, cosmetics pack, digital artbook, and OST by award-winning composer Amine Bouhafa.  

A physical retail edition, the Pioneer Edition, can be pre-ordered here for PlayStation 5 right now and releases on July 2. This edition comes with an exclusive Hope-01 sticker version of the mission patch we created in collaboration with the European Space Agency – the same patch that Ariane and Thomas wear on their spacesuits in-game! 

Aphelion is a cinematic action-adventure game set in space, blending exploration, traversal, stealth, and mystery. But more than anything, it’s a story-rich human journey. Play as Ariane and Thomas as they navigate this new and alien world in a desperate attempt to find one another after their crash-landing. 

We really hope you enjoy your experience on Persephone. 

“Ignition, and… lift off.”
