“I’ve worked on multiple video games since I’ve been in the industry for 32 years. When I picked up the breakdown and I started reading through it, I didn’t quite understand the concept at first. And then I started reading the lines for the audition and I was just like “Wait a second, it feels like a moment of life.” Well, this game is like a good book where you just wanna know what happens next. It felt much more than just a game, it felt like capturing a moment of time.” - Russell Yuen (Poros character)

In SEASON: A letter to the future, you play as a young woman from a secluded village exploring the world by bike for the first time, collecting memories before a cataclysm washes everything away. SEASON is a quest to discover a new world; one unknown yet familiar. Document, photograph, and record life as you find it, while you still can.
The gameplay of SEASON: A letter to the future focuses on exploring, recording, meeting others, and unraveling the strange world around you. At any point, you can hop off your bike and equip a recording tool from your bag. Each captures a different element; sounds and music, art and architecture, voices of old people, vanishing religious practices, the traces of seasons long past. Your tools help you examine the world more closely until you’re able to grasp the culture, history, and ecology underneath everything.
SEASON: A letter to the future is available digitally on PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 4 for $29.99 USD and Steam and Epic Games Store for $24.99 USD. PC players interested in the digital soundtrack can purchase it as a bundle with the game for $29.99 USD or by itself for $9.99 USD.
