Witness the most significant event in video gaming history as world renowned industry icons – including Hideo Kojima, Mark Cerny, Jim Ryan and many more – tell the untold story of how the PlayStation revolutionised video gaming forever.
Releasing on 7th September the groundbreaking documentary, from critically acclaimed filmmakers Anthony and Nicola Caulfield, offers the world a remarkable never-before-seen look at the iconic origins of Sony PlayStation and it couldn’t come at a better time.
With the video game world preparing for the 25th Anniversary of the US and UK launch of the PlayStation in September, this is a must-see for gaming, film fans and pop culture enthusiasts alike.
The technological revolution of the PlayStation paved the way for a wave of cultural innovation that can still be felt today. Without which we would never have seen the likes of Metal Gear Solid, Crash Bandicoot, Tomb Raider, Gran Turismo, Resident Evil, God of War and Shadow of the Colossus.
Games such as these played a huge part in the early success of the console. Upon launch, 100,000 units were sold in two days in the US and within four months 500,000 units were in European circulation. By the end of 1996 a staggering 10 million consoles had been bought worldwide.
