Polish studio Mighty Koi has announced two major titles. Players can explore the world as Vuko from Jarosław Grzędowiczs popular "Lord of the Ice Garden" series in the first game. The second is an interactive rendition of Thorgal's iconic comic book escapades. Both games are being developed for Xbox Series X|S, PS5, and PC platforms.
The Night Wanderer
lets players experience the world known from the “The Lord of the Ice
Garden” book series by Jarosław Grzędowicz. Vuko – the main character
from the books – will embark on a journey to Midgaard, a planet
inhabited by an alien civilization with technological advancements
comparable to the early Middle Ages on Earth.
Vuko, the protagonist of the books as well as the game, is part of a space expedition with the mission to uncover the fate of previous explorers sent to the planet of Midgaard. At the time of his mission, the alien civilization's technological level can be compared to the early Middle Ages on Earth.
The protagonist has to give up all modern inventions and try to blend in with the inhabitants, without interfering with their rate of development. His only help is a fungi-based biochip, which gives him some superhuman abilities. Upon arrival, Vuko realizes that Midgaard is ravaged by unexplained, almost magical anomalies, which might be linked to the disappearance of the previous expedition.
Mighty Koi promises a dynamic and innovative combat system, which blends soulslike gameplay with RPG and adventure game elements.
Thorgal is an action RPG set in the mythical Norse world, known from bestselling comics written by Jean Van Hamme and illustrated by the legendary Grzegorz Rosiński. The saga has sold over 20M copies worldwide and is still being published since 1977. Finally, gamers will get a chance to experience the digital version of this epic saga.
Fans of the Neptunia series will have to wait a little longer to play the latest installment on their Xbox consoles. Idea Factory revealed that Neptunia: Sisters VS Sisters, which was originally scheduled to launch on April 16, has been pushed back to May 21.
Neptunia: Sisters VS Sisters is an action RPG set in the vibrant world of Gamindustri. Hack 'n' slash your way through hordes of dangerous enemies found in the many dungeons throughout the land while trying to defeat a mysterious, new phenomenon that threatens life itself. Lead the Goddess Candidates, the younger sisters of the 4 Goddesses of Gamindustri, through their first adventure to save the world!
While the Goddesses were out responding to a distress call from the faraway PC Continent, Nepgear and the other Candidates were dispatched to an abandoned research facility in order to investigate a monster outbreak.
It was there that they encountered the Ashen Goddess, who trapped them in a capsule and placed them in a deep sleep. By the time they awoke, they were astonished to discover that 2 years had passed.
After they emerge from slumber, they learn that Neptune has been missing since her mission to the PC Continent 2 years ago, and in the absence of its Goddess and Candidate, Planeptune was ravaged by a series of strange outbreaks, collectively referred to as the Trendi Phenomenon.
