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.
