Palworld Studio Unveils Never Grave, A 2D Dungeon Crawler With Hollow Knight-ish Vibes
It hasn’t even been two weeks since Palworld took the video game world by storm, but Pocket Pair is already teasing the next game in its pipeline: Never Grave: The Witch and the Curse. Like its ridiculously popular Pokemon-inspired game, the studio’s next project will undoubtedly turn heads due to its apparent similarities to popular 2D metroidvania game, Hollow Knight.
The similarities look to be confined to the game’s environments though, with players going up against more traditional medieval fantasy enemy tropes instead of bugs. Never Grave will also feature co-op play and base building mechanics that will allow players to rebuild and expand a small village and tend crops in between dungeon runs.
Never Grave is set to launch into Steam Early Access by the end of March with a free demo now available on the platform ahead of next month’s Steam Next Fest.
