The Eternal Life of Goldman coming to Game Pass on day one; Xbox Series demo now available
Full game due out in 2026.
Hand-drawn side-scrolling platformer The Eternal Life of Goldman will be available via Game Pass on day one when it launches later in 2026, publisher THQ Nordic and developer Weappy announced. The game is slated for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, Switch, and PC via Steam and Microsoft Store. An Xbox Series demo is available now.
Here are the latest details, via THQ Nordic:
“What a ridiculous old man!” Goldman, hero of the upcoming hand-drawn 2D platforming adventure The Eternal Life of Goldman, has come to save the archipelago and to become the hero that the people there expected the least. While he may not seem like your typical savior-of-the-world type, Goldman has quite a few qualities that make him perfectly suitable for the job.
One might think Goldman can’t defeat anyone with that funny little cane, but please believe us: Yes, he cane! Make sure to check out the latest trailer to see all the unbelievable options this simple cane can give an old man! From jumping to the highest platforms—or onto the heads of his enemies—to hanging onto objects, pulling them, creating a flash of phosphorus, or turning it into a proper shield against enemy attacks: this cane is a powerful weapon in the hands of any old man who knows how to use it.
In the latest trailer, just shown at the Xbox Partner Preview Showcase earlier today, The Eternal Life of Goldman has dropped the big news: Players will be able to play The Eternal Life of Goldman day one with Xbox Game Pass!
And while the Game Pass announcement is already a reason to celebrate, Xbox players have another very good reason to get excited right now: you can check out the demo for The Eternal Life of Goldman on Xbox Series today!
