Indie game developer Coal Supper and publisher Panic Inc. have confirmed that Thank Goodness You're Here! is coming to Xbox this December. If you're not familiar with the game, this is a comedic slapstick title that takes place in the fictional and bizarre Northern English town of Barnsworth. You'll play a traveling salesman who is there to not only peddle their goods, but also take in the scenery of the remote town and its citizens, many of whom are eager to give you ridiculous jobs. The game has already been out for over a year on PC, so this is basically a port of the Steam version with all of the updates released so far.  Enjoy the latest trailer above as the game arrives on December 9, 2025.
