Game news The Game Awards: Zelda-style tunic finds release date

Developed by Finji-Studio (Nights in the Woods, Canabalt …) Tunic is an adventure game that takes place in isometric view. In pregnancy for several years and exclusively for Xbox and PC / Mac, this title will give pride of place to the puzzles. The adventure, reminiscent of the mechanics of The Legend of Zelda, promises to be promising and the wait won’t be long!

Lost legends, ancient forces and creatures from the afterlife, the little fox, who is reminiscent of the sympathetic avatar of Super Lucky’s Tale, will have a lot to do to free himself from the numerous obstacles. The announcement trailer, presented during The Game Awards 2021 pre-show, reports on different environments (temples, banks, plains, etc.), sophisticated camera angles, activation mechanisms (levers, switches, etc.) and pitfalls to avoid .

ENTITIES TO DISC

Various creatures will rise up to slow the dog’s progress, but the player can rely on the trusty sword of his orange hero. Finji also took the opportunity to slide some boss sequences, but also used a grappling hook. The device therefore makes it possible to grab structures in order to move from one platform to another, but also to catch the enemies in the manner of Scorpion in Mortal Kombat. The studio already promises to find explorations, epic battles and lots of artifacts (keys …).

A temporary demo was offered last June and some were able to try it out. The stored feedback allowed the developers to answer certain questions and improve the formula. There is no doubt that Tunic still has many surprises in store for us.

The game launches on March 16, 2022 and will be available on Xbox One, Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, PC, and Mac. It is currently not planned on Sony consoles.

Here you will find all announcements and the winners of the Game Awards 2021!
