Journey journeys to the PlayStation Network this March

Thatgamecompany's Journey will finally hit the PlayStation Network on March 13, according to a PlayStation Blog post by Jenova Chen, the studio's creative director.

It's kind of tough to explain what Journey is, though by simply looking at the screenshot above, it's immensely intriguing. The adventure title has that pretty art style and that Ico or Shadow of the Colossus-like sense of desolation and mystery.

"You wake alone and surrounded by miles of burning, sprawling desert, and soon discover the looming mountaintop, which is your goal," wrote Chen. "But the experience along the way is discovering who you are, what this place is, and what your purpose is."

You'll explore this vast wasteland and uncover the mysteries of a forgotten civilization -- alone, or with a stranger you meet online. You can't speak to the stranger, or even know what the stranger's PSN ID is, actually. And that's another intriguing aspect of Journey: the possibility of having to depend on a complete stranger, sans communication, to explore this land and, ultimately, get to the top of that mountain while uncovering all the secrets in between.

It looks and sounds so simple, but I can't help feeling a bit excited for March 13. Will you partake in this Journey?
