The Plucky Squire, an absolutely gorgeous action-adventure platformer from the folks at All Possible Futures, was revealed today during the Devolver Digital showcase.
The announcement comes hand-in-hand with an equally lovely trailer where we see the titular squire transition from the pages of a 2D story book world to a full 3D world. It’s colorful, adorable, and exactly the type of game we’d expect Devolver Digital to throw its backing behind.
Check it out below to see The Plucky Squire in all its visual glory.
With a freshly-minted Steam listing, we have some words to accompany the announcement. Over to All Possible Futures for a few choice words about The Plucky Squire:
“The Plucky Squire follows the magical adventures of Jot and his friends – storybook characters who discover a three-dimensional world outside the pages of their book.
When the malevolent Humgrump realizes he’s the villain of the book – destined to lose his battle against the forces of good for all eternity – he kicks the heroic Jot out of its pages and changes the story forever.
Jot must face challenges, unlike anything he’s ever seen if he is to save his friends from Humgrump’s dark forces and restore the book’s happy ending.
Jump between 2D and 3D worlds in this charming action-adventure – solving puzzles, boxing badgers, flying with a jetpack, and enjoying many more delightful and surprising mini-challenges as you become the hero of a living storybook.”
Devolver Digital currently has The Plucky Squire penciled in for release for 2023 on PC via Steam, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X/S. Over on Steam, you can already wishlist the game and catch a peek at a good spread of screenshots.
