"The Missing" missing on PS5 & Xbox Series?

[Jayonnaise6105]

My appreciation for the work of Swery65 has been growing quite a bit lately
So far I've played:
Deadly Premonition
Deadly Premonition 2
D4: Dark Dreams Don't Die

In my research, I've come across a game he directed called "The Missing: JJ Macfield and the Island of Memories". I want to check it out, but I can only really find it on Steam or scalped to oblivion on eBay because Limited Run did the physical release. PS4 & Xbox One are listed on its releases, but I can't find it on either PSN on PS5 or the Microsoft store for X Series.

Anyone have any insight? Was it de-listed at some point, or is it just not backwards compatible/stuck on the PS4/XBONE?

Its on the PSN Store, its PS4 only. I have it digital and it pops up when searching "The Missing"

The MISSING: J.J. Macfield and the Island of Memories

The sudden disappearance of a dear friend spurs J.J. Macfield to go look for her friend on the curious Island of Memories.brYou can’t die on this nightmare island, even if you’re seriously injured. No matter how many times J.J.’s brought back from the grips of death, she drags her mangled body...

I can't find it on either PSN on PS5

Honestly never used PSN nor any PlayStation since PS2 but it may be logical to think that since it's a PS4 game that doesn't have a PS5 version it wouldn't show up on PS5's PSN?: https://store.playstation.com/en-us/product/UP0036-CUSA12349_00-0000000000000000

the Microsoft store for X Series.

IDK I found this: https://www.xbox.com/en-us/games/store/e89a31f1-b1f2-4ebf-9614-f72028763a66/bwf6qt9cnzwn

I never used Microsoft and XBOX stuff so IDK if it's even a valid link but it does list XBOX Series.

I guess why they may be missing for you might be regional reason. Naturally some games doesn't show up due to where you are connected to the website like how some games on Steam doesn't show up for me.

Maybe it's only available in the US then? Following those links showed results. I don't live in the US though, and even using my browser for my region's PS & Xbox stores doesn't bring up search results. Which is weird, because I've checked and it is available on my region's Nintendo store for the Switch.

I think it's an issue with where I live. I don't think it's available on PS & Xbox in my country

I consider The Missing: J.J. Macfield and the Island of Memories to be SWERY's most interesting work by far.

It is available on PC, Switch, or PS4. The game should run on most laptops made in the past decade with at least a Core i5 even without a dedicated GPU. Hopefully you have access to one of those platforms.

If you have $6 to spare, it's currently on sale at Steam key reseller IndieGala: https://www.indiegala.com/store/game/the-missing-jj-macfield-and-the-island-of-memories/842910

Thank you for the suggestion! I do really want to check it out, so I'll explore those options and see what I end up with.

Well Nintendo is THAT greedy so they wouldn't even care about government rules and whatnot lol.

Some PS4 games are available on the web browser store, but not the PS5 dashboard store.
It may mean the title has compatibility issues. (Shovel Knight has minor visual artifacts on PS5)

Yonder: The Cloud Catcher Chronicles is a special case. The PS4 version is still available digitally, while they delisted the buggy PS5 port.

Can't say it wasn't as advertised.
