Zozo and the Lost Dreams is a new retro-inspired Metroidvania from Red Dune Games and Agate. It was unveiled during the run-up to the latest Steam Next Fest and is on track to release later in 2026 on PC and consoles. The announcement came via a fun trailer and a brand-new demo that has just dropped on Steam.
The game stars Zozo, an energetic 13-year-old with big dreams of becoming a superhero, and with the help of his eccentric neighbour, Professor Aisha, he ventures into his own technicolor dreamscape to live out his fantasies. But when a mysterious glitch traps him deep within the dreamworld, Zozo must leap into action to find his way back home.
According to the developer, Zozo and the Lost Dreams blends classic Metroidvania exploration with Saturday-morning cartoon fun you know and love. Traverse wildly imaginative dreamscapes full of whimsical challenges and quirky foes. Get ready to take on towering cupcake mountains and neon-lit cyber jungles, where predatory computer bugs lurk and pillows become unexpected projectiles.
