'Don't Starve: Shipwrecked' gets a PS4 release date

Now you can survive mutinies and craft precious life jackets.

If you own a PlayStation 4 and have been patiently waiting to play Don't Starve: Shipwrecked, then you're in luck. The nautical-themed expansion will be released on August 2nd on the PSN store, with a 10 percent launch discount to boot. Though that August 2nd date is only a few weeks away, this marks a several month delay for the expansion. Shipwrecked was originally supposed to launch on Sony's console sometime this spring.

The add-on has been available for PC since April, and was even on sale for $4.50 on Steam during its launch period. Shipwrecked features news characters, biomes to explore, food to cook, and sea monsters to fend off. The octopus-like Quacken seems quite deadly. You'll also be going up against an active volcano and even mutinies. The emphasis here is on adapting Don't Starve's survival gameplay to a brighter, more colorful world filled with tropical islands.
