Forget a staycation, next year I’m taking a slaycation!
A little over two years ago, I stumbled across the Twitter account for Microbird, a game developer working on a quaint-looking action-RPG called Dungeons of Hinterberg. I loved the art direction, the setting, and the character design; it checked a lot of boxes for me. I told myself I’d try to keep the game in mind, but that didn’t happen. I forgot about it until I saw the debut trailer for the game in today’s Xbox Game Showcase.
Free from the awful Twitter video player, the game still looks outstanding and is once again checking all those same boxes for me.
I don’t want to get myself too hyped for it as that tends to bite me in the butt with indies. But consider this one of my most anticipated games of next year. Dungeons of Hinterberg will launch for Xbox Series X|S and PC next year and will be on Xbox Game Pass day one.
