N++ is coming to PS4, as part of the N series' 10-year anniversary. Metanet Software hopes to make this the "definitive version" of the series and have recruited Dyad-creator Shawn McGrath to help.

Metanet's Mare Sheppard told the PlayStation.Blog that N++ will feature new multiplayer modes and a whole new level editor. Creators will be able to share their stages globally, along with any attached leaderboards or replays. In regards to McGrath's role on the process, Sheppard says, "Shawn is really good at programming, and--more importantly--he's just as picky and critical as we are about making sure every aspect of the game is as well-made as possible."

While Sheppard isn't revealing much more about N++, she does point to the colorful kaleidoscope-like teaser as indicative of the game's redesigned visuals. N++ is coming soon.

Ozzie has been playing video games since picking up his first NES controller at age 5. He has been into games ever since, only briefly stepping away during his college years. But he was pulled back in after spending years in QA circles for both THQ and Activision, mostly spending time helping to push forward the Guitar Hero series at its peak. Ozzie has become a big fan of platformers, puzzle games, shooters, and RPGs, just to name a few genres, but he’s also a huge sucker for anything with a good, compelling narrative behind it. Because what are video games if you can't enjoy a good story with a fresh Cherry Coke?
