Revenant Hill, the next game from the creators of Night In The Woods, is headed to PlayStation 5.
During today’s PlayStation showcase, The Glory Society, a team made up of two Night in the Woods co-creators, revealed Revenant Hill.
Featuring an art style that seems to mirror Night in the Woods (the main character Twigs even looks like a version of Night in The Woods’ Mae who walks on all four legs), Revenant Hill seems to promise more of the exploration-based gameplay that Night in the Woods was based on.
According to the PlayStation Blog, the game takes place in 1919. “After the barn he was living in burns down, Twigs the cat takes up residence in a wet log near an abandoned graveyard,” the blog reads. “When the owl from the next hill over starts demanding rent, Twigs must find a way to make ends meet, and things just get more complicated from there.”
The game will also feature everything from crop growing to hosting “increasingly ambitious parties for witches and demons and other things that don’t have proper names.”
We gave Night in the Woods an 8.7 in our 2017 review, saying its “exploration of young adulthood manages to be charming, funny, and devastatingly sad all at once.”
