Clear River Games, a video game publisher specialising in classic and retro games, announced today that the highly anticipated Gimmick! 2 will be bouncing onto Nintendo Switch and Steam on September 5th 2024, with PlayStation and Xbox versions due to follow shortly after.

The original Gimmick! Was a platform game released for the NES back in 1992. The game saw something of a revival when it returned in the form of Gimmick! Special Edition last year.

And now, over 30 years later, Gimmick! Is finally getting a belated sequel.

Developed by Bitwave Games and based on the original NES game, Gimmick! 2 continues the adventures of the circular green hero Yokai Yumetaro, as he returns for an all-new adventure, which promises new characters, locations and secrets behind every turn.

The PC version of Gimmick 2 can now be wishlisted on the Steam Store.
