Grow Home was quite a successful little game. For those of you who missed out, Grow Home saw one little droid's quest to grow as much green as possible to reoxygenate his homeworld, mainly through the use of giant, ever branching beanstalk vines that he rode to climb ever higher. Now the sequel game has an announced release date and it's pretty soon.
Grow Home's sequel Grow Up was announced at E3 last month, and will see the Botonical Utility Droid journeying ever higher through a "new open-world" as he tries to recover the parts of his lost spacecraft MOM (and I would assume reassemble it too. In a blog post about the game Ubisoft Reflections reveals that BUD will be accompanied by a new flying companion named POD and will also have access to a new device called the Floradex 3000, a device that will allow for BUD's cloning of the game's 24 different plant species to allow for easier passage as BUD makes his way to his ultimate target destination of the homeworld's moon.
Grow Up will be coming to PC and the Xbox One and PS4 on August 16th.
