Panic will publish new titles from the studios behind Untitled Goose Game and the Far series
The Playdate maker held its first ever digital games showcase today
Firewatch publisher Panic revealed several new titles during its first ever digital games showcase on Tuesday, which can be rewatched in full below.
The Portland, Oregon-based company, which is also behind the Playdate handheld, announced that it will publishing the next games from Untitled Goose Game studio House House and Okomotive, the team behind Far: Lone Sails and Far: Changing Tides.
“We’re just here today to say that we’re working with Panic again on a new game,” House House’s Michael McMaster said in a video message. “It’s something totally new, totally different and we hope you’ll like it. It doesn’t have a name yet, but I reckon we’ll figure it out. That’ll be fine.”
Okomotive’s technical director Isabelle Roesch said: “This time, we’re telling a new story outside of the Far Universe. In our largest game to date, we’re exploring original gameplay mechanics to let you experience a new fantastic adventure.”
Panic also revealed Arco, “a turn-based action RPG that follows four different characters on a quest for revenge, as their lives are shaken by a rapidly growing corporate mafia”.
And it offered new looks at a couple of previously revealed games, Nour: Play With Your Food and first-person football title Despelote. Experimental food art game Nour received a September 12 release date for PS5, PS4, and PC/Mac via Steam and Epic Games Store.
Despelote, which is described as “a slice-of-life adventure about childhood and the magical grip soccer held over the people of Quito, Ecuador” in the run-up to the country’s first ever World Cup appearance in 2002, is targeting an early 2024 release early on PC, Xbox Series X/S and PS5.
