Hyper games are back with a new Moomin based game!
As a Finnish person I felt it would be a crime not to report on one of my personal favorite childhood franchises in the world haha. Here is an overview the developers shared:
“We’re so excited to finally be able to share this news with our community and fans across the world,” says Are Sundnes, CEO at Hyper Games. “It’s been incredibly difficult to keep this secret while working on the game for over two years now. Also proud and honoured to be trusted by the owners of Moomin to let gamers revisit the wonderful Moominvalley and all of its inhabitants.”
“We are thrilled about the success of Snufkin: Melody of Moominvalley and the brilliant way the Hyper Games team has interpreted Tove Jansson's stories for gamers worldwide,” says Roleff Kråkström, managing director of Moomin Characters Ltd. “It is very exciting that they have decided to embark on their second Moomin adventure, with Moomintroll in the lead role. Hyper Games has been a close collaborator with us for half a decade, and we have no doubt that they will create yet another magical experience that Moomin fans will love.”
When Moomintroll unexpectedly wakes up early from his winter hibernation, he finds himself completely alone for the first time, in a world he barely recognizes. The familiar landscape of Moominvalley is now cloaked in the frosty veil of the Lady of the Cold. Initially seeking someone to care for him and longing to banish winter, young Moomintroll reluctantly embarks on a journey into the unknown, learning to forge new friendships and help those in greater need than himself.
About Moomintroll: Winter’s Warmth
From the creators of Snufkin: Melody of Moominvalley comes a heartwarming new adventure inspired by the beloved Moomin stories by Tove Jansson. This time, join Moomintroll himself on a charming but cold winter journey.
Moomintroll: Winter's Warmth is a story-driven, cozy puzzle adventure that lets you return to the enchanting Moominvalley through the creative lens of the award-winning indie studio Hyper Games. While not a direct sequel to Snufkin: Melody of Moominvalley, it is a spiritual successor with many similarities. You can enjoy both games on their own, and in any order you’d like.

There is no announcement yet that it's gonna be released on other consoles but considering that the previous game Snufkin: Melody of Moomin Valley was released on all majors it wouldn't surprise me if we get an additional announcement about it soon.
