Trek to Yomi is an upcoming third-person cinematic action-adventure game from Leonard Menchiari and Flying Wild Hog focusing on a young Japanese swordsman named Hiroki. Published by Devolver Digital, Trek to Yomi is scheduled to launch on May 5, which should explain the latest marketing effort for the game. Trek to Yomi doesn't have anything to do with Sega's upcoming Sonic the Hedgehog classic game bundle Sonic Origins. However, that isn't going to stop Devolver from capitalizing on an opportunity that Sonic Origins presented.

As part of Sega's announcement of Sonic Origins, it revealed a chart displaying the game's various editions, pre-order content, and DLC. The confirmation that Sega was taking these classic Sonic the Hedgehog games and monetizing them in such a way was met with frustration from fans. Devolver, with its well-known sense of humor, responded with a humorous post on Twitter mocking Sega's Sonic Origins chart and promoting the upcoming release of Trek to Yomi.

The chart that Devolver Digital put together to make fun of Sega and Sonic Origins is relatively simple. Along the top of the chart are the different "editions" of Trek to Yomi, which is really just a list of the game's supported platforms across PC, PlayStation, and Xbox. Along the side is a list of features and marketable elements, including the Trek to Yomi game itself, a 10% discount for pre-ordering, stunning visuals, a remarkable soundtrack, and cheekily, "full credits at the end." All of these bullet points are checked off for all platforms.

What Devolver is saying is that all players who purchase Trek to Yomi will get the same experience. There's only one version of the game to purchase and nothing will be missed due to DLC segregating players based on the cash they invest in it.

It should be made clear that Devolver Digital doesn't directly mention Sonic Origins, though it's clear what the post is referencing. There's no direct insult being made. Devolver isn't so much "calling out" Sonic Origins as it is capitalizing on the discourse going viral and the ridiculousness of the situation in the first place.

Odds are that Trek to Yomi will garner as much attention as it needs with or without Devolver Digital's unique marketing efforts. Not only does Trek to Yomi look very appealing in its early trailers, but it will also be widely available via Xbox Game Pass. A touch of Devolver's marketing magic surely won't hurt, of course.

Trek to Yomi releases May 5 on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
