There is a lot to discuss here, as Annapurna Interactive Showcase showed us new footage of several long-awaited games, brand new titles and some surprises that genuinely excited us, and rightly so, the company is enjoying growing popularity after the release of Stray.
Without further due, here are the announcements:
Crazy exes and a journey to find who you are
Thirsty Suitors from Outerloop Games is coming soon to Xbox, PlayStation, Switch, and Steam. This action-adventure RPG lets you fight your exes and find yourself in a joyful and visually engaging world. Their PC demo is available now.
We got an official date for HINDSIGHT
HINDSIGHT will arrive on Switch, Steam, and the App Store on August 4, if you didn’t hear about it before, this cinematic adventure game goes through the story of a woman who sorts boxes left behind helping her to reminisce her own memories of the past.
Mech combats and farms?
You read that one right, the next Dinogod’s game is a Western sci-fi mash-up called Bounty Star, where the player takes on the role of a broken but powerful ex-soldier named Clem, a war veteran, talented fighter and expert mech pilot. Coming in 2023 for Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, PS5, PS4 and PC.
Needed a cute and wholesome game?
They announced Flock, a multiplayer co-op game about the joy flight and collecting cute flying creatures with your friends while you enjoy the beautiful landscapes, like a wholesome Pokémon. The title is coming very soon to Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4 and PC via Steam.
Good news for those who wait
The developers of Outer Wilds appeared in the showcase to give a status update. Seems like the Switch version is taking longer than expected, however, the new-gen upgrades are coming to PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. They even present a brief trailer with them running at 60fps, and you don’t have to wait long as it will be available on September 15.
A new Keita Takahashi game!
The creator of Katamari Damacy is developing a new game, from new studio Uvula, they presented a brief teaser that… well it really didn’t show anything but a young ladd snoring and suddenly opening their eyes to be licked by a dog, yeah, not a lot of details.
Last but not least!
Be very afraid, as a new trailer of the first-person survival horror game The Lost Wild gave us a new glimpse of what it is to come. We found ourselves in the jungle, but while gathering supplies from abandoned buildings we come face to face with dreadful carnivorous dinosaurs.
Tiny but important announcements
Besides all these exciting titles we also got brief developer spotlights of the studios, among them Yarn Owl is working on a still-unnamed game. Third Shift is developing Forever Ago, a story-driven road trip adventure game in which you play as an elderly man who goes on a journey in a van and records his time on the road and finally, developer Dreamfeel mentioned that they are working on an anthropomorphic cat story yet to be announced.
Also, Annapurna highlighted a bunch of games that are making their debut on new platforms, including two that will be part of the Game Pass subscription.
