What it launched against
Lifeless Planet launched on 6 June 2014, within three weeks of Watch Dogs, Mario Kart 8, Wolfenstein: The New Order and Shovel Knight. All of them reviewed better. It arrived 1 year into the PlayStation 4's life, so it was built for hardware developers already knew well.
Released around the same time: Watch Dogs, Mario Kart 8, Wolfenstein: The New Order, Shovel Knight.
