[Montreal, Quebec, Canada] August 12, 2024. Today, Shishi Studios announces that their first title, Shishi : Timeless Prelude and all of its DLC content, is coming to PlayStation, Xbox and Mobile storefronts in Q4 2024. It is currently available on Nintendo Switch and PC (Steam).

From an accessibility point of view, Frédéric explains that “the game was designed to be accessible to players with a disability like me. It includes customizable controls, a customizable game interface, and contrast options for people who are visually impaired.”
