What is Mixtape?
Developed by Beethoven and Dinosaur and published by Annapurna Interactive, Mixtape is a story-driven adventure game now available for PS5.

It also features a stacked soundtrack, featuring music from DEVO, Roxy Music, Lush, The Smashing Pumpkins, Iggy Pop, Siouxie and the Banshees, Joy Division, and The Cure.
Check out the trailer below, as well as a description of Mixtape, which gives players a glimpse of what to expect from the musically charged story-driven adventure game:
“On their last night together, three friends embark on one final adventure. Play through a mixtape of memories, set to the soundtrack of a generation.
“En route to their final party together, a perfectly curated playlist draws three friends into dreamlike reenactments of their formative memories. Experience a variety of narrative vignettes exploring the pivotal moments that shaped them. Players will immerse themselves in the teenage wasteland by playing through a mixtape of joyful gameplay, from skateboarding and flying to taking photos after hours at an abandoned theme park, hitting baseballs, and putting on a fireworks show from the backseat of a car. It’s the greatest hits of the teenage experience, from the first kiss to the last dance.”
Mixtape is available right now on the PS Store. There is only one edition on the digital storefront, and it costs $19.99.
