Back in August I reported on the new remaster of the classic Croc Legend of the Gobbos, and today it has been revealed it will be a GOG exclusive on PC.

Gravity-bending party platformer Which Way Up: Galaxy Games from Turtle Flip Studio plans to release in early 2025 with a demo available and it's crowdfunding on Kickstarter to help it expand. Inspired by Mario Galaxy, you compete in various acrobatic gravity events in this low-gravity platformer.

Coming in a day late for my recent Steam Deck Verified round-up, The Rogue Prince of Persia from developer Evil Empire and publisher Ubisoft is now Steam Deck Verified with a big update out.

A single-player comedy adventure 2.5D platformer developer by a former Disney ride designer, Ari Buktu and the Anytime Elevator looks and sounds great.

Mosa Lina is a really fantastic game. It's also completely insanely ridiculous, full of chaos and now you can bring a friend along for the ride.

Lorn's Lure is a thoroughly odd game. It's all about jumping and climbing your way through these huge structures, with a creepy and lonely atmosphere it's certainly a unique experience not found elsewhere.

Set in a hand-drawn world of cosmic horrors, the upcoming 2D action-platformer metroidvania, Voidwrought looks like a real gem. Especially so if you're a Hollow Knight fan waiting on Hollow Knight: Silksong.

Solo developer ARASLANIX are working on WINCH IT OUT, a physics-based driving-platformer, a game that reminds me of a simpler time with lots of different Flash games.

Memes, jokes and games don't always blend together well or age well in video games, but CATO: Buttered Cat does it very playfully with the right idea and it's just wonderful.

Developed by Knight Shift Games with publishing by Playtonic Friends, Elsie is a fresh and very colourful looking love letter to action-platformers with a roguelike and it looks truly awesome.

The original released back in 1992 for the Famicom (NES) and now Bitwave Games along with publisher Clear River Games have revived the classic platformer with Gimmick! 2 out now.

Aestik from Hooded Traveler Games looks absolutely gorgeous, with some clear Hollow Knight inspiration and may be a good one to play through while you wait for Silksong.

That's quite a blast from the past. How do you feel about a little nostalgia? Argonaut Games announced a return with a remaster of Croc Legend of the Gobbos.

From Chaosmonger Studio who previously released ENCODYA and Clunky Hero have now announced their completely over the top platformer-shooter Speedollama will release October 21st.

Nomada Studio are back. After releasing GRIS in 2018 to Overwhelmingly Positive reviews, their next game is Neva and it also looks bloody gorgeous.

Ready for something a bit different? Lorn's Lure is a 3D atmospheric narrative first-person parkour platformer with an interesting climbing system.

Following a successful Kickstarter back in late 2018, developer Straitjacket has launched GOD'S GIFT, a puzzle-platformer inspired by classic Lemmings and Pikmin.

Six years after the main release, Dead Cells has seen its final update, packed full of content to give it a good send off.

Kitsune Tails from developer Kitsune Games is a platformer inspired by the classics like Super Mario Bros, steeped in Japanese mythology and it's well worth playing.

Kitsune Tails, the platformer styled after beloved classics and steeped in Japanese mythology, shows off a bunch of retro minigames and some pretty powerful modding support that will be available at launch.
