Devolver Delayed: Everything Announced
Game delays are common within in the industry. But what is uncommon is holding a digital showcase that celebrates a game delay. Developer Digital has done just that, with a less-than-three-minute showcase of all the games it is publishing that won’t hit a 2023 release date but will release in 2024 (as well as a few still set for this year).
Here’s everything shown at Devolver Delayed.
The Plucky Squire
The Plucky Squire is a colorfully adorable top-down action adventure game focusing on Jot and his other storybook character friends as they discover the 3D world. The Plucky Squire launches next year on PC, PS5, Switch, and Xbox Series X/S.
Stick it to the Stickman
Stick it to the Stickman is a chaotic roguelike brawler where you fend off your coworkers as you try to climb the corporate ladder as quickly as you can and eventually reach the title of CEO. Stick it to the Stickman launches next year on PC.
Skate Story
Skate Story is a beautiful skateboarding adventure game where you kickflip, grind, and ollie your way through a dark underworld as you destroy demons and save tortured souls. Skate Story is set to launch next year on PC.
Anger Foot
What originally started out as a game on itch.io has expanded into a bigger idea in Anger Foot, where your character is the deadliest foot. This fast-paced FPS has you kicking not just doors but a lot of asses. Anger Foot is out next year on PC.
Pepper Grinder
A colorful 2D platformer, Pepper Grinder fuzes traditional platforming with a drilling mechanic, allowing you more freedom and ways to explore and reach the end of a level. Pepper Grinder is out next year on PC and Switch.
Gunbrella
Gunbrella is a side-scrolling Metroidvania in which you (you guessed it) use a bullet-proof umbrella that also doubles as a gun. Shockingly, it is one of the few games that was not pushed back to 2024 and will launch on PC and Switch sometime this year.
Wizard with a Gun
Another game not delayed into 2024 is Galvanic Games’ upcoming online co-op survival game Wizard with a Gun. In Wizard with a Gun, you embark on a journey solo or with friends as you explore the unknown, craft new firearms, and wield magic. Wizard with a Gun will launch sometime this year for PC and Switch.
The Talos Principle 2
A sequel to 2014’s The Talos Principal, the upcoming puzzle game is set to greatly expand “the first game’s philosophical themes and stunning environments with increasingly mind-bending challenges”. As previously learned, The Talos Principle 2 is due later this year on PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X/S.
The Cosmic Wheel Sisterhood
The Cosmic Wheel Sisterhood is a narrative-driven adventure from the developers behind The Red Strings Club. Players take the role of Fortuna, a witch who reconnects with her peers after a long exile as she shapes the fate of the Witch society. The Cosmic Wheel of Sisterhood is out August 16 for PC and Switch.
KarmaZoo
Announced earlier this year, KarmaZoo is a platformer with a heavy emphasis on co-op play. With up to 10 players playing at a time, you take control of pixelated animal avatars with the goal of tackling dynamic levels. KarmaZoo will be out before the year ends and will be available on PC, PS5, Switch, and Xbox Series X/S.
