You’d think that in our world of modern graphics that many would lean away from doing 8-bit or 16-bit titles, but the opposite is true. There are plenty of teams that do retro titles with the simple goal of recapturing past vibes and feelings, while also delivering new experiences. For Nalua Studio, they’ve announced a 16-bit arcade action platformer called Necro Pop and revealed that it’ll drop next year. Here are the first details about the game:

“In Necro Pop, players take control of Poppi, a ghost who finds herself caught in a battle against an evil darkness known as The Gloam. Having spread across the land of Ghostreach, The Gloam has trapped friendly ghosts throughout the world, leaving Poppi to set out on a mission to free them.

Everything changes when Poppi discovers an ancient amulet that grants her a corporeal form. Armed with her newfound physical abilities, she sets out to push back The Gloam, explore the dungeons of Ghostreach and rescue her ghostly friends.

As players progress, they will discover new abilities, upgrades and secrets across multiple replayable dungeons, opening up new ways to approach both combat and exploration.”

One of the hilarious elements about the game is that it was actually built for an old-school console. However, it will come out digitally, including being on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation, XBOX and Steam.
