Team17 and SISMO Games revealed that their new side-scrolling action platformer, SKINWALKER, is coming to PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, Nintendo Switch, and PC via Steam in 2026.
Here is an overview of the game, via Team17:
About
A strange creature is being held prisoner at your father’s lab. To save your daughter, who is gravely ill, you make a deal with this powerful being, vowing to help it escape. In return, the creature promises a cure and you must form a close bond with it.
Play as a scientist exploring a research facility, talking to people and investigating your surroundings to find information and ultimately free a powerful creature. You can transform into that creature – a terrifying monster – to move through vents and fight your way past soldiers and other beings within the lab.
When a father’s daughter is in danger, he’s capable of doing anything – even things he never thought possible. He’ll do whatever it takes, making huge sacrifices and unleashing his inner strength to save her.
One nightmare cures another.
Key Features
- Duality – Assume two roles, human and beast—strategically choosing the right form in certain situations. Use both forms to overcome levels in the most practical way. Both forms carry deep meaning and contribute to the narrative; who you kill as the beast will affect the end of the story.
- Visceral Combat – The vulnerability of your slow, human form starkly contrasts with the beast’s devastating executions and agility. Tear apart soldiers who stand in your way. Innocent spilt blood grants passive upgrades and unlocks executions… but this choice bears heavy consequences.
- Emotional Storytelling – Your decisions are yours to carry, affecting the fate of the monster and your child. Face moral dilemmas that require reflective responses throughout. Short and meaningful dialogue options allow you to delve deeper into the story and uncover secrets, forging emotional connections with characters along the way.
