Usual June Reveal Trailer

As you can see from the trailer, in addition to hanging out with both your real and undead friends, you’ll be fighting strange creatures and uncovering dark and mysterious secrets in your hometown of Midwest City. It looks to have a fairly substantial detective element alongside its hack and slash combat, and I have to say, I’m quite taken with the game’s mixture of 2D-esque graphic-novel style character models and 3D environments.
Looking closer at the game’sSteam page, Usual June promises an “original conspiracy story that is equal parts terrifying, funny, and sweet”. However, it will likely be a little while before we can see if it will make good on that promise, as Usual June isn’t due to hit PC until 2025.
