Psychonauts 2 reveals new gameplay, release 2021

Double Fine revealed a new trailer for Psychonauts 2 on the Xbox Games Showcase, also confirming a release window for the game: 2021! The Steam page still lists it under 2020 at time of this writing, but it should be amended at some point. Here’s an overview of the game:

Razputin Aquato, trained acrobat and powerful young psychic, has realized his life long dream of joining the international psychic espionage organization known as the Psychonauts! But these psychic super spies are in trouble. Their leader hasn’t been the same since he was kidnapped, and what’s worse, there’s a mole hiding in headquarters. Raz must use his powers to stop the mole before they execute their secret plan–to bring the murderous psychic villain, Maligula, back from the dead!

The original Psychonauts released back in 2005 to much critical acclaim over the zany and charming setting and characters, among other things. A 2015 crowd-funding campaign was successful in starting development for the sequel, which would be coming to 6 years in the making for its expected release.

Fans will have to wait longer to dive into brains again, but it looks like it will be well worth it.
