Ether One

White Paper Games’ Ether One may not be the most inventive new adventure game but it certainly incorporates an interesting approach, allowing you to do things the easier way or embark on a more difficult quest throughout. It will be heading to PS4 eventually though and making the jump to Unreal Engine 4 but will it ever come to the Xbox One?

We spoke to designer Pete Bottomley about the game’s absence on Xbox One, who replied that, “There’s not really much to say. Sony contacted us first and were really excited about getting Ether One onto the platform.

“It feels like a good partnership and the whole PlayStation team has been great to work with. No one from XBOX has contacted us and none of the team are XBOX players so it wasn’t really a consideration.”

What are your thoughts on Ether One heading to Xbox One? Let us know in the comments below.
