Free? On April Fools? I must be joking! Well, I’m not, and clearly, Owlcat and The Awkward Yeti aren’t either, as they’ve revealed a surprise collaboration on a new game called “Awkward Valley”

The best part? It’s completely free to play on PC!

Now, if you’re wondering why Awkward Valley may look a bit familiar, it’s because it’s based on the upcoming Disco-like narrative RPG Rue Valley. Although, mechanically, both games play differently, they share a common theme around breaking time looks. That and the obvious shared location. However, despite the similarities, both collaborators insist that this definitely is not a time look game. I guess we’ll have to take their word for it, and I hope nothing out of the norm happens in Akward Valley.

As for Rue Valley, the upcoming Disco-like narrative RPG, a playable demo, was released a few months back. If you loved Disco Elysium, trust me, you’ll love what Rue Valley has to offer. At the moment, Rue Valley has no release date and is currently slated to release on PC only.
