Kingdom Hearts-Inspired Action-Adventure Game Duskfade Gets A Release Date

During the Future Game Show Summer Showcase 2026, we got the release date for Duskfade, the upcoming 3D action-adventure game from the studio behind 2021’s Clid The Snail. The game is coming to PC, PS5, and XBOX Series X/S on August 13th, 2026, with a demo out now on PlayStation and PC via Steam.

Check out the Duskfade release date trailer below.

Revealed last year, Duskfade is a love letter to classic 3D action platformers, taking heavy inspiration from Square Enix’s Kingdom Hearts series. You play as Zirian, a young boy who, with the help of his clockwork owl friend Cuckoo, must go on a quest to save his sister from a mysterious Clock Tower that has plunged the land into eternal night.

“Explore stunning realms shaped by the Master Clockmakers, each filled with mystery, magic, breathtaking vistas, and endearing characters. Navigate ethereal forests, underwater realms, sunlit dunes, and cloudy heights – the world of Duskfade is alive and teems with secrets for you to uncover.”

Blending fast-paced combat with dynamic platforming, you’ll have to jump, dash, grapple, glide, and slash your way through thrilling challenges and epic boss fights.

“Experience a powerful coming-of-age journey filled with heart, loss, and the courage to face the unknown. Join a cast of charming characters to face down long-forgotten foes, each embodying an emotional hurdle.”

Duskfade releases on PC, PlayStation 5, XBOX Series X/S, and Nintendo Switch 2 on August 13th, 2026, with a demo available now on PS5 and on PC via Steam.
