The recent beta for Media Molecule's build-your-own-game experience Dreams saw players tackle the recreation of many games, including the likes of Dead Space and the Silent Hills P.T. demo. That said, it looks like the upcoming adventure will be available for everyone via Early Access this spring!

Taking to the PlayStation Blog, Media Molecule studio director Siobhan Reddy thanked those who participated in the beta testing of Dreams. "During our Beta we saw players create such an incredible range of things," she said. "Clever puzzle platformers, moody first-person adventures, gorgeous interactive paintings, super charming movies and so many other amazing things."

This had led the studio to deciding it is about time for Dreams to take the next step, which is Early Access. It "won't have everything that the full version of Dreams will, but you'll get 100% of the same Dreams tools that we have used every day at MM to make our content," Reddy said.

Those who were in the beta will still be able to access their assets once Early Access arrives. "Along the way, we'll be adding more features, tutorials, arcade levels and assets during the Early Access period as we build towards the full slate of launch content," Reddy added. In addition to this, the Early Access version of Dreams will be able to be streamed on platforms like Twitch!

However, Dreams Early Access will be a "strictly limited release," so players who wish to jump in on the creative train will need to do so as soon as they can. No specific release date was mentioned, but it will be launching this spring, and will be available on PlayStation 4 as a digital download for $29.99.

For more on Dreams:
