Retro-inspired Pokettohiro heading to consoles and PC

Just like clockwork, retro publisher Ratalaika Games has announced that its latest retro-inspired title, Pokettohiro, is heading to Steam in the summer of 2025. As with most of the prolific publisher’s efforts, this one uses bright, bold pixel art and has the feel of a classic 8-bit adventure. Gamers interested can enjoy a short demo that is now live on the game’s Steam page. There was also news that the game will come to consoles, although no set details have emerged.

 

In Pokettohiro, a group of brave heroes must gather the fragments of the Magic Crystal to face the evil Black Knight and thus prevent the destruction of the kingdom. Players will need to 

be prepared to discover a huge open world to explore, with secrets and surprises in every corner. They will also embark on hidden dungeons, forge bonds with villagers and help them solve their problems, discover useful items to progress in the adventure, release imprisoned heroes, and unite them to your cause.

 

Features:

 

  • Six distinct playable characters, each with their own unique abilities and playstyles.

 

  • A vast and diverse world, teeming with challenges and secrets to uncover.

 

  • Hidden dungeons featuring epic boss battles that will test your skills.

 

  • Engaging side quests to assist the villagers and deepen your adventure.

 

  • A multitude of collectables are hidden throughout the map, rewarding keen explorers.
