[Watch] Action adventure game ‘Troll and I’ gets Xbox One, PS4 and Nintendo Switch release dates

Maximum Games and Spiral House provided some new details on its upcoming adventure title 'Troll and I' today. A new video shows off some of the exploration gameplay along with co-op focused battles between both Troll and the young boy, Otto.

There will be seamless character switches, environmentally based crafting and an independent upgrade system for each of the two characters.

In 'Troll and I', players will be tasked with strategically utilising Troll and Otto’s unique strengths to overcome the many enemies they will face in the Scandinavian backcountry – whether they be the human hunters pursuing Troll for their own greedy ends or mythical orcs known as ‘Ahky’ unleashed from the depths of the earth. Solo players can seamlessly switch between Otto and Troll in-game, using Troll’s massive size and strength to throw boulders at enemies or Otto’s speed and resourcefulness to stealthily take out a lone hunter without raising an alarm. 'Troll and I' also supports split-screen gameplay for couch co-op, as two heads, and pairs of hands, are always better than one.

Throughout the game, players will encounter various natural resources when playing as Otto and should make use of Otto’s keen senses and attunement to nature to track down wildlife, which can be hunted and used to heal him during battle. Otto will exploit the materials of the forest to fashion spears and other weapons that will prove crucial to the duo’s survival. Otto’s connection to his surroundings and the environment around him plays a key role in the player successfully navigating treacherous situations.

'Troll and I' lands on Xbox One and PS4 on March 21st in North America and the 24th in Europe. The game will also release on Nintendo Switch but at an unknown date.
