He wanders through a post-apocalyptic world searching for the cause, and potentially the cure, of his illness.
In combat, the Drifter can use his sword and several different types of guns.
Guns are refilled by slashing objects and enemies with the sword, forcing the player to find a balance between melee and ranged attacks.
The Drifter can also dash to avoid enemies and jump across gaps.
As the player explores the world, they will find many secret areas and items.
These include keys and diamonds that open up doors in the world, as well as medkits which heal the Drifter.
The player will also find coins, which they can use to upgrade the Drifter.
The player can buy additional sword attacks, grenades, dash moves, and more upgrades which greatly enhance the Drifter's effectiveness in combat.
About PlayStation 4
The PlayStation 4 (2013) cemented Sony's dominance of the eighth console generation, with a library exceeding 30,000 titles once indie and digital-only releases are counted. Most PS4 games remain affordable for collectors, but limited physical print runs — particularly from smaller publishers and later in the console's life cycle — are starting to see steady price increases as digital storefronts eventually wind down support.
Gamevaro tracks Hyper Light Drifter for PlayStation 4 with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding Hyper Light Drifter to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This PS4 release dates back to 2016.

Market insights
Rarity & condition
Only a handful of market sales have been tracked for Hyper Light Drifter, suggesting it doesn't trade hands very often — a sign of relative scarcity compared to more common PlayStation 4 titles.
Complete-in-box (CIB) copies typically command a premium over loose cartridges/discs because the original box and manual are more fragile and get discarded or damaged over time — fewer complete sets survive.
