Skinwalker, new 2D hack and slash from SISMO GAMES announced

Team17 Digital and SISMO GAMES have unveiled Skinwalker as part of the Galaxies Showcase. In the game, you play as a scientist forced to abandon his humanity to save his daughter. Assuming a monstrous form and unleashing his ancient and primal fury, you will fight anyone who stands in your way and must decide how far you are willing to go to save her. A mysterious being is held captive within your father's research facility. In a desperate attempt to save your daughter from a terminal illness, you pledge allegiance to this powerful creature, granting it freedom in exchange for a cure.

Frantic Combat: You can play as both human and beast. Activating beast mode grants enhanced strength and agility, allowing you to dodge enemy attacks and move quickly through hostile environments. However, just like in your human form, you won't be invincible.

Intense and Emotional Narrative: Experience an emotional narrative where your decisions will influence the plot and your daughter's fate. The player will face moral dilemmas and intense situations that require thoughtful and compassionate choices throughout the game.

A Journey of Hope: From high-security laboratories to lush forests and rugged mountains, you will undertake missions with specific objectives and encounter various characters along the way.

Skinwalker will be released on PC via Steam, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S in 2026. Here's the announcement trailer.
