Blanc is a gorgeous indie that features a fawn and wolf pup exploring together in the snow. What else could you possibly want in a game? 

After appearing during the Nintendo Direct Mini earlier this week, the upcoming game has garnered a number of new fans which has prompted Blanc’s developers to thank everyone who has shown an interest in it.

Posting to Twitter, developer Casus Ludi shared: "The teams at Casus Ludi and Gearbox Publishing are thrilled with the enthusiasm you’ve shown since Blanc was unveiled. Our two furry heroes are also very happy with the attention they’ve been getting and can’t wait for you to come frolic in the snow with them." The post continues: "For now, we will go back to work, but stay tuned as we will be sure to share more along the way!"

In case you missed it, Blanc is due to release in February 2023 on both PC and as a console exclusive on Nintendo Switch. The beautiful game is a completely text-free story that sees the unlikely pairing work together to find their ways back home to their families. Blanc will have both local and online co-op, so similar to games like Unravel 2 or Never Alone, players will be able to work together to get these two baby animals home. 

Also similar to the two games mentioned above, Blanc has promised to be an "emotional adventure" so be sure to prepare yourself to get very easily attached and most probably heartbroken by our two furry protagonists. 

If you’re interested in Blanc, we suggest wishlisting the game on Steam or the Nintendo eShop. You can also follow the official Blanc Twitter account and visit the game’s website to stay up to date with the latest ahead of that highly-anticipated February 2023 release date.

News Writer

After studying Film Studies and Creative Writing at university, I was lucky enough to land a job as an intern at Player Two PR where I helped to release a number of indie titles. I then got even luckier when I became a Trainee News Writer at GamesRadar+ before being promoted to a fully-fledged News Writer after a year and a half of training.  My expertise lies in Animal Crossing: New Horizons, cozy indies, and The Last of Us, but especially in the Kingdom Hearts series. I'm also known to write about the odd Korean drama for the Entertainment team every now and then.
