Rotwood - Announcement Trailer
Looks cute! Certainly a lot cuter than Klei’s first beat ‘em up, 2010’s bloodsoakedShank. Details on Rotwood are thin for now. All Klei offer beyond what you can see in that trailer is a brief blurb:
I don’t feel a huge need for great gobs of details right now, mind. Klei have earned my interest through games likeInvisible Inc, Don’t Starve,Oxygen Not Included,Griftlands, Mark Of The Ninja… a remarkably high percentage of bangers in their history.
Rotwood will debut in early accesson Steam, though Klei haven’t yet said when that will happen. The trailer suggests that it will likely be this decade, which honestly I do think I could have guessed.
Klei announced last year thatTencent had bought a majority stakein them. At the time, Klei founder Jaime Cheng said that aside from some accounting changes, “I will continue running the studio as before, with no changes to staffing, projects or other operations.”
