Cocoon is a charming new sci-fi puzzler from the designer of Limbo
techradar.comCocoon, a new sci-fi puzzler from the designer behind Limbo and Inside, made its debut at the Xbox and Bethesda Games Showcase – and we're already intrigued.
In development at indie studio Geometric Interactive, and published by Annapurna Interactive, the world premiere trailer for Cocoon showed the winged protagonist emerging from a metallic cocoon before running around a futuristic map placing glowing orbs on censors and using other orbs to grapple upwards and onto objects.

According to the trailer's YouTubedescription, Cocoon «takes you on an adventure across worlds within worlds» and will see you mastering «world-leaping mechanics to unravel a cosmic mystery».

Cocoon releases in 2023 for Xbox consoles and PC and will be available on Xbox Game Pass on day one.
