Pokémon artist reveals adorable picture book project The Plucky Squire

The Plucky Squire is an eye-catching adventure game where you switch between 2D and 3D environments, and it's being made by former Pokémon artist James Turner.

Turner, if you're unfamiliar, is a British designer who spent more than a decade at Pokémon maker Game Freak, and was one of its first Western employees. Now he's formed his own indie studio, All Possible Futures.

A trailer for The Plucky Squire shows its dinky hero scampering through pages of a picture book, before leaping out into the 3D world of its surroundings. Here it is:

The Plucky Squire is set to launch for Nintendo Switch, PC, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S in 2023. One to keep an eye on!
