In addition to releasing a special edition vinyl, Big Boi and André 3000 will release a mobile and desktop interfaced video game. According to a press release per XXL, “the game will allow users to play as either Big Boi or Three Stacks and battle aliens in Atlanta. The goal is to collect as many vinyl discs as you can to achieve the highest number of points possible.”
