Marsupilami: Hoobadventure, a new 2.5D platform game from Microids, was announced this Tuesday, May 25th. The game is being developed by Ocellus Studio and will be released on November 16 for the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and PC.
Marsupilami, a fictional animal created by Belgian designer André Franquin in 1952, serves as the inspiration for the game. The character first appeared in “The Heirs” comic books. Furthermore, it won animated episodes from Disney.
Three protagonists will face a ghostly creature in order to save all of the other animals in the forest. Take a look at the synopsis:
Punch, Twister, and Hope are three Marsupilamis living a peaceful life in Palombia. Their lives are about to take a drastic turn when they accidentally open a sarcophagus whilst playing with debris on a beach, releasing a mysterious ghost cursing all the animals! Thankfully, our three Marsupilamis are immune to the curse and decide to set out on an adventure and find the ghost and reverse the curse.
Inspired by the comic book Marsupilami from Franquin, this 2.5D platformer will take you on a colorful journey through the Palombian jungle, a coastal city and even an abandoned temple. Jump, punch, dash and swing with your tail like only Marsupilamis do!
Despite being aimed at a younger audience, more “hardcore” players will be able to take advantage of the challenging Time Attack mode, which will determine who can complete each level in the shortest amount of time. Those who enjoy collecting will be able to access an art gallery by collecting hidden feathers and visiting secret dojos.
