Mini-sized fun comes to PC next year with MicroMan, next-gen console releases announced

Today, Glob Games Studio announced that it will release its action-adventure game MicroMan for PC later next year, with next-gen releases for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X and Nintendo Switch to follow. The game follows a man as he realizes that he’s shrunken to miniature proportions, and must survive the elements in order to get back to normal.

MicroMan is a new project by the Warsaw-based Glob Games Studio, which will also publish the game.

The game is being developed with the single player experience in mind. The release will combine, among others, elements of action adventure, arcade and survival games. The main protagonist is a laboratory worker who, as a result of an unfortunate incident, falls into an experimental reduction capsule and gets shrunk to the size of a small insect.

The player’s goal will be to find a way to return to his normal size. As the developers explain, the road to achieve this will not be short and easy, and the gameplay itself will be very diverse and include various interesting and surprising elements. The game will involve face-offs with powerful enemies (such as ants, frogs and hedgehogs), unusual means of transport (e.g. a butterfly), thinking how to overcome obstacles and making sure the hero is in good physical condition. The creators have also announced that MicroMan will feature decisions that will directly affect the gameplay.

“Our new game will allow you to look at the human world from a completely fresh perspective. MicroMan will have to face adversities that the average person would not even think of. We will provide the players with a surprising, dynamic and – at the same time – very multifaceted adventure. We will be fighting rats, running away from a hedgehog, looking for a way to get on the bus or trying to avoid getting crushed by human feet. And these are just some of the things MicroMan will offer. All this will be wrapped in stylish audio and visuals and sprinkled with a good dose of good humour” – adds Karol Marcinkowski.

MicroMan is expected to debut on PC (Steam) in the second half of 2021. Later, the title will also be released on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X.
