Nothing beats physical media, and Maximum Entertainment and DON’T NOD get that. The critically acclaimed Lost Records: Bloom & Rage is filled with 90s nostalgia, VHS tapes, and mixed tapes, so a physical release just feels right. Lost Records is set to get its first physical release on August 7, 2025 for PlayStation 5. The Lost Records physical release will be a boxed edition available across North America, Europe, and Australia, giving collectors a chance to own a piece of this unforgettable story.
About the game, our critics said:
“Lost Records: Bloom and Rage is a clear time capsule for the development team. It honors a time in life, and its short playtime harkens back to 2024’s Open Roads. While the game clearly has a larger mysterious narrative, it can’t be understated how much an intimate and personal project it all feels like. The vision is clear. Don’t Nod has planned a whole universe for Lost Records, building off of this core concept, town, and the group of friends at the center.”
Told across two “tapes,” Bloom & Rage, the game embodies nostalgia and explores how we hold onto our memories, how we change them, and how they reflect us. DON’T NOD’s beloved return to narrative adventure follows four high school friends who reconnect after 27 years to confront a mysterious event that will permanently alter their lives.
While the game has already captivated digital audiences with its emotional storytelling, deep character development, and stunning cinematic beauty, the Lost Records physical edition feels like a natural progression, and how the game was meant to be enjoyed. More importantly, Lost Records physical release stands to open the game up to even more audiences.
