News: Sierra releases a new behind the scenes video for their new game which is now available on PS4 and PC and arrives on Xbox One tomorrow.

Sierra has recently released a new behind the scenes video for their newest title, Shiftlings. Featuring five funky planets and over 50 mystifying levels, Shiftlings introduces a duo of space custodians who journey the galaxy solving complex puzzles. To help with the cosmic challenges, the Shiftlings pair can pass gas between their space suits through a linked air hose, allowing them to expand and contract in size and weight instantly. This astronomical adventure also supports both single and two-player local and online co-op multiplayer.

Shiftlings is a platform puzzler which can be played both alone or with a friend and revolves around two Alien Twins who are attached to each other through a cable. In single player mode the player can switch the controls between the two aliens on top of switching the size of the two, while in co-op mode, each player controls one of the two twins. Switching size between the two characters is an important part of getting through the tricky puzzles. The smaller size enables higher jumps while the bigger Twin can’t jump but instead is able to push boxes and can be used as a trampoline by the smaller counterpart. The Cable, that connects to two Twins, provides both challenges but also solutions to get the two through the puzzles and to the end goal of each level.

Shiftlings is available now on PS4 and PC and will arrive on Xbox One tomorrow. Take a look at the video below and tell us what you think. Is this a game that interests you?
