The game has been confirmed for PC via Steam as well as all three major consoles on May 27th, 2022. Enjoy the latest trailer down below as we get a better look at Kao's next tale.

He'll have to use all his skills while learning some new ones…not all of them being natural to the world he lives in! As they say, it's the journey that makes us, not the destination.
