• Album Art By Conrad Roset
• Music by Berlinist
DISTRIBUTED TITLE: To describe Gris as simply a game is to tell only a fraction of the story. This stunning debut from Barcelona’s Nomada Studio is a transcendent experience - an artistic odyssey through a world of color - impossibly imaginative landscapes and jaw-dropping architecture. It’s a cathartic hero’s journey, not simply punctuated by sound, but driven by a haunting score that fully transports the listener to a watercolor infused paradise. In intimate collaboration with Nomada, we’ve created two versions of the vinyl - a deluxe edition (sold out) and an open edition gatefold version that similarly, exudes fantastic beauty (available here). This is a treasure for any vinyl collector to behold.

• Nominated - Best Music - 15th British Academy Games Awards (BAFTA)
The Verge called it “one of the most beautiful games ever made.”
IGN called it “a visual masterpiece.”
GameSpot said, “The ways in which it reinvents itself as you gain powers and dive ever deeper into this world is truly special, and just as it knows exactly when to pull back the camera or introduce a new song, it's keenly aware of when it's time to say goodbye. Like a comet streaking across the sky, Gris is full of wonder and beauty and leaves you with a warm glow in your heart."
