Det fantastiska äventyret i stop-motion-stil Harold Halibut anländer "tidigt 2024"

It’s been a long old wait for developer Slow Bros’ gorgeous stop-motion-style space adventure Harold Halibut – but now, some seven years after its initial reveal, an end is in almost sight, with its Xbox, PlayStation, and PC release set for “early” next year.

Harold Halibut berättar historien om en ung labbassistent (titelns Harold) som tvingas leva sitt liv ombord på Fedora, ett rymdskepp i storstadsstorlek som fortfarande är nedsänkt under ett främmande hav 250 år efter att det flydde från jorden för att bevara mänskligheten.

While some of its inhabitants have reconciled themselves to a life on the sunken ship, others still works tirelessly to find a way to leave the planet and reach a new, dryer home. Harold’s story lies somewhere between all that, told in absolutely sumptuous style, part fully voiced stop-motion movie, part narrative-driven adventure.

Harold Halibut was initially revealed back in 2016, and its long gestation isn’t all that surprising once you lay eyes on its stunning handcrafted world, built using a combination of intricate real-world sets and models combined with motion-capture animation within Unity.

I’ve had my eye on this one for absolutely ages, and it’s genuinely exciting to hear the wait is almost over now Harold Halibut has been given an “early 2024” release on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, PC, and Game Pass.
