Nicely, pluck me working
The Wild Gents and Joystick Ventures have introduced that the Hen Police are returning in Hen Police: Into the Hive. It’s presently set for launch someday in 2024.
I didn’t play Hen Police: Paint it RED when it was launched in 2020, however did choose it up the next yr. It was incredible. I’ll have missed its assessment window, however I nonetheless ended up praising it high-and-low in a later article. Whereas the primary recreation caught to its noir trappings, it was a unusually optimistic story that left me with good feels, even whereas its narrative was decidedly darkish. Whereas it has an odd veneer, it additionally presents an intriguing world that I’m excited to see additional explored.
Whereas Hen Police: Into the Hive’s trailer is considerably missing in specifics, the Hive was defined within the earlier recreation. It’s primarily an space the place town of Clawville sends its undesirable, which is a barely extra beneficiant means of claiming that it’s a slum for bugs. Manny expresses remorse that the inhabitants was handled so unfairly, however the space isn’t actually explored past that within the first recreation.
This makes the Hive a fertile floor for storytelling in Hen Police: Into the Hive. Once more, the trailer solely provides hints of what it’s going to cowl, nevertheless it depicts a cold-blooded homicide and unrest within the streets.
Furthermore, it exhibits a return of the distinctive mixture of photo-manipulation and anthropomorphic animal characters that helped the primary recreation stand out. I’m so jazzed for this. I can barely include all my jazz.
Sadly, I’ll have to preserve a lid on my jazz till 2024, which is when Hen Police: Into the Hive is anticipated to launch on PC.
