Hotline Miami will make its next generation leap next week, when it launches for PlayStation 4 on August 19th.
Arriving on PC turf all the way back in October 2012, Hotline Miami caused quite a stir in the indie gaming scene with its vibrant setting and gore-induced gameplay. According to a tweet from the game's official Twitter account, players will be able to "beat people to death by shaking the gamepad" with the sounds of your executions emanating from the controller's speaker, which just seems like such a pleasant touch. Players will also have the option to use the DualShock 4's touch pad to look around and lock on to enemies.
To celebrate the upcoming launch, Devolver Digital offered up a new PlayStation 4 gameplay trailer which you can check out below. Hotline Miami will also support the Cross-Buy feature, so those with past PSN purchases will get the PlayStation 4 version for free.
