Publisher Devolver Digital and developer All Possible Futures announced action-adventure platformer, The Plucky Squire, will launch for the PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch, and PC via Steam on September 17. It will also be available day one as a PlayStation Plus Game Catalog title.

Read details on the game 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.

They could’ve just pushed this to December so that way it didn’t have to interfere with AstroBot, EoW, Shadow Generations, and M&L. Looks incredible! But unless it outperforms Zelda on MC/OC, prolly will opt to play the other titles instead.

Looking forward to this title, but it's in the same month as the new Zelda. Typically I don't buy 2 full prize games in the same month. That being said, I don't know what the price for the Plucky Lad is going to be. Perhaps it's a good prize and I pick it up at day one. Or I will wait a little.

Last year we saw Sonic Superstars coming out a little before Mario Wonder and it did not do Sonic any favors saleswise. I'm afraid the lovable Squire can meet the same fate.
