The original Gimmick! game was released on January 31, 1992. That's over 32 years ago! To say the least, it's been a long journey between the original game and its sequel. But the wait is almost over. Today, we are thrilled to announce the release date for Gimmick! 2.
The game will be released on Steam on (drumroll, please) September 5, 2024! What an excellent start to the gaming autumn, right? Unlike the original game, which was only released in Japan and Scandinavia, the sequel will be released worldwide. Wherever you live, you and Yumetaro will be able to go on an adventure this September.
Stay tuned for more updates!
