Fellow Traveler will publish Origame Digital-developed Lovecraftian narrative adventure game Penguin Colony when it launches for Switch 2 and PC via Steam in 2026, the companies announced. The Switch 2 version is newly announced.
Here is an overview of the game, via Fellow Traveller:
Penguin Colony is a Lovecraftian narrative experience from Origame Digital, the creator of Umurangi Generation.
A reimagining of Lovecraftian stories such as At the Mountains of Madness, Penguin Colony offers a radically different perspective on creeping cosmic horror by telling it through the eyes of a penguin.
Set in the frozen expanse of Antarctica, you will explore open-ended environments by waddling, sliding, and swimming across the ice. As you uncover the fate of two factions that have been drawn to Antarctica. One seeks to harness the power of an ancient being beyond their comprehension, while the other wants to return it to its slumber.
You will discover and play as different penguins, each with unique abilities and limitations that influence exploration. Some penguins may access tight, hidden spaces, while others can traverse the icy waters, offering multiple perspectives on the world and its mysteries.
As you progress, you will gain insight about two factions that are drawn to Antarctica by forces beyond comprehension. The story unfolds through environmental discovery and narration, gradually revealing a deeper, unsettling truth buried beneath the ice.
Penguin Colony will feature a playable demo during the Summer Game Fest window, as part of June’s Steam Next Fest and Fellow Traveller’s Story Rich Showcase.
The game will launch with day one localization in Japanese, Simplified Chinese, Brazilian Portuguese, Arabic, and Te Reo Māori.
