Developer All Possible Futures has revealed the release date for their unique and charming storybook indie title, The Plucky Squire. It’s an action-adventure game in which you switch back and forth from 2D to 3D trying to restore peace to your storybook world after being kicked out of it into the real world by the evil Humgrumph.  It’s coming to Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC on September 17, 2024. Check out the release date trailer below: 

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.
