Earlier this year, developer Webbysoft and publisher Armor Games Studios revealed that its pirate adventure game, <a href="https://www.gameinformer.com/2023/03/08/swashbuckling-adventure-game-bilkins-folly-will-now-hit-playstation-switch-alongside-pc" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Bilkins' Folly, would be releasing on PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, and Switch</a> alongside the already-announced PC version. However, the teams stopped short of revealing when we can expect the game to hit those platforms. Now we know; Bilkins' Folly will be released next month on October 2.
Alongside today’s release date news, Webbysoft has also released a new Bilkins’ Folly trailer showcasing some of the swashbuckling and mystery that awaits players in the final release. You can watch the Bilkins’ Folly release date trailer for yourself below:
“Join Percival ‘Percy’ Bilkins and his beloved dog Drayton on a treasure-hunting, puzzle-solving, ship-wrecking romp across a series of open islands in search of Percy’s mother and grandfather, who mysteriously vanished without a trace,” a press release reads. “Together with Percy and his pup, you’ll find a new ship, meet and recruit your very own crew, and scour every nook and cranny of the world uncovering great mysteries, bountiful treasures, and life-changing family secrets.”
