Fez PC pre-orders open on April 22

Fez on PC is really happening, you guys; Steam and GOG.com will both open pre-orders for the indie platform-puzzler on April 22. Polytron is offering 10% off on pre-orders of the $10 former Xbox Live exclusive ahead of its May 1 launch. Fez has sold 200,000 copies on Xbox Live since its launch almost exactly one year ago. It was featured in indie Game: The Movie and famously spent years in development, netting multiple IGF awards in the process.

Thanks, Joystiq.

One year on from release, Polytron Corporation’s much-praised puzzle platformer Fez has sold 200,000 copies on Xbox Live. Creator Phil Fish revealed the figure in a blog post, thanking players for their support, fanmail, and giving him the chance to “spend years driving myself crazy trying to make something beautiful so you can run around in it”. Fez arrives on PC on May 1 and is later headed to other platforms, although probably not 3DS or Wii U.

Thanks, woe.

Oh hey, so you know what’s still going to be patched? Fez. According to developer Polytron, a patch was submitted for certification in early March but was rejected. It took the team quite some time to identify and correct the issues Microsoft raised, but the revised update is back in certification, so we should hear something within the next few weeks.

Thanks, IGM.
