PlayStation 4 Birthdays the Beginning

Create life with your own hands

There are so many things we do not understand. What everyone thinks they know is only a small part of this unknown world.

As though drawn by a light, you enter a cave deep in the woods and find an enormous cube before you. Beside it sit a small cube-shaped object and a creature with an unfamiliar appearance.

That was how this strange event began.

Design the terrain freely

The basics are raising and lowering terrain. Design a blank landscape however you like, then advance time a little. Living things appear and the world becomes increasingly lively.

When development reaches certain levels, the land expands in stages. Keep shaping a world of ever greater scale. Changing terrain also changes temperature, letting you control the environment by arranging the land.

Bring creatures into existence

How does life begin? How do creatures evolve? Try to solve these slightly mysterious questions. As time passes, diverse creatures emerge according to environmental conditions such as temperature and humidity. Create conditions suited to the creatures you want to see and aim to bring every species into existence.

When you find a newly born creature, capture it and register it in the Capture Collection. Alongside species information, an evolutionary tree shows the lineage that led to its birth. It may offer hints about the conditions needed for creatures you have yet to discover.

Create a world of your own

Your world is yours to shape. Raising and lowering terrain creates mountains and valleys, as well as floating cities or landscapes lined with stone pillars. Items appearing within the world can help it develop further; some can even produce dramatic natural upheavals.
