Foreign Gnomes has announced Everhood Hunters, a roguelike rhythm entry in the Everhood series. It will launch for Switch and PC via Steam in 2027.
“In so many ways, this is the game we always wanted to make,” said Foreign Gnomes co-founder Chris Nordgren in a press release. “Jordi [Roca] and I learned so much about ourselves while working together over the years, and all our mechanical ideas formed into something bigger than either of us could imagine. It’s not just the battles we’ve refined; the whole spirit of Everhood‘s surreal storytelling thrives in Everhood Hunters. We can’t wait to see you all take on the universe together.”
Here is an overview of the game, via Foreign Gnomes:
So, there are those who think they have what it takes to be a hunter? No matter. The truth will come out soon enough. Pick from four different characters, each bringing bespoke playstyles to the table, and engage in musical battles and offensive beat-downs set to an electric soundtrack comprised of 70 new compositions as well as fan-favorites from Everhood and Everhood 2.
Think things sound a little too familiar? Oh, ho, ho—how naive, little hunter!
Team up with a friend to embark on a roguelite adventure set in the Everhood universe to seal the root of all evil by solving riddles. Navigate winding paths filled with battles, rewards, shops, rest points, elite encounters, and other mysterious events unknown to even the PR firm writing this press release. Go toe-to-toe with surreal adversaries and work together side-by-side to climb to the top of weekly leaderboards.
Jump to the beat of life’s rhythmic river and dodge a stream of musical energy flying in the face of existence. Gather enough energy uninterrupted to unleash a powerful counterattack, increasing in damage with each note stored. Collect enemy souls to unlock new items and equipment, and transform every run into its own nugget of reality nestled in the Everhood world forever.
