在经过漫长的禁令后，游戏主机最终又回到了中国，并且现在中国的开发者正在为这些系统创造游戏。

诞生于2011年的中国游戏工作室Oasis Games计划在4月19日面向西方PlayStation 4市场发行《Koi》。这也让Oasis成为了中国第一家面向欧洲和美国玩家发行PS4游戏的公司。该公司之前便成功为国内玩家创造了像《Legend Online》等网页冒险游戏，但现在它将面向包括PC，手机和主机在内且价值993亿美元的全球游戏市场而扩展。在PlayStation Store中《Koi》的定价将为10美元，而面向索尼付费PS Plus订阅服务的用户的定价则为8美元。

如今中国已经是一个非常繁荣的游戏市场。在2015年，中国消费者在各种设备上的游戏贡献达到了222亿美元。其中PC和网页占据了152亿美元，手机更是以每年50%的增长速度创造了41美元的收益。相比之下主机游戏的贡献相对较小，只有4亿美元。不过Oasis希望他们不仅能够把握住中国市场的相关业务也能够利用在这里获取的收益去开拓海外市场。

在《Koi》中玩家将扮演池塘里的一只鱼，他们必须努力解决谜题并在无数任务中寻找zen去净化污水。这种艺术风格会让我们想起一些其它独立游戏，但与此同时这款游戏又是那么与众不同。开启中国主机市场的一个显著利益便是像Oasis等工作室能够将自己的游戏创造视角分享给世界各地的玩家。而这款游戏的诞生也是帮助我们去判断这种决定是否有效的第一道关卡。

Koi is China’s first PlayStation 4 game for the West, and it debuts April 19

JEFF GRUBB

Gaming consoles are finally back in China after a lengthy ban, and now a developer in that country is building games for those systems.

Oasis Games, a Chinese studio that started in 2011, plans to release Koi for the Western PlayStation 4 market April 19. This makes Oasis the first company in China to ever release a PS4 game for players in Europe and the United States.The company has previously had success making web-based adventures like Legend Online for its domestic fans, but it is now expanding into a global gaming market that is worth $99.3 billion when you include PC, mobile, and console. Koi will sell for $10 on the PlayStation Store or $8 for members of Sony’s premium PS Plus subscription service.

China is already an enormous gaming market. In 2015, consumers in that country spent $22.2 billion on games across a variety of devices. PC and the web made up the biggest chunk of that at $15.2 billion, but mobile is also growing hyperfast with a 50 percent year-over-year increase to $4.1 billion. Console gaming, however, is relatively tiny at just $400 million in revenues. But Oasis is hoping that it can capture some of that business while ultimately making most of its return on investment overseas.

Koi puts players in the role of a fish in a pond who must solve puzzles and find zen throughout a number of missions in order to return the polluted waters to a pristine state. It features a clean art style that is reminiscent of some other indie games, but at the same time it also feels unique. One of the obvious benefits of China opening up its market to consoles is that a studio like Oasis could come along and bring its game-making perspective to players around the world. This is the first opportunity to see how that works.（source：venturebeat)
