You can now pre-order it on steam and whatever the ps4 thing is. You can preorder just the game, the game and soundtrack bundled together, or just the soundtrack if you're weird and that's all you want I guess. More information on preordering can be found here.
I am super excited for this game you guys, possibly more than any other game coming out this year. I played the first 20 minutes at pax east and it was god damn incredible, the art and sound and gameplay were all tops and even if "seamless" is always an exaggeration this game does do a fantastic job of combining the action gameplay with the pause-and-plan mechanics.
Did I mention the art and visuals are incredible? Here have more pictures, click all this shit for hi res versions (all lifted from the transistor page)
Everybody buy this game
