Annapurna Interactive held its first event in honor of the Tokyo Game Show, where it presented three completely different games.
TGS showcased three ambitious auteur projects: the puzzle game D-topia, the innovative RPG-musical adventure People of Note, and the atmospheric action-adventure Demi and the Fractured Dream.
The variety of genres and platforms confirms that the publisher is betting on unique stories and ideas outside the usual framework.
D-topia from the Japanese studio Marumittu Games is a puzzle adventure game that transports the player to an ideally "happy" residential complex managed by AI. The player solves residents' problems, explores corners of the complex, makes choices, and reveals the human face of an ideal society. Release in 2026 on PS5, Xbox Series X|S, Switch 2, Switch, and PC.
People of Note from Iridium Studios is a turn-based role-playing game entirely in the format of a musical. The plot unfolds through musical and choreographic scenes, and combat and abilities are based on interactive musical phrases and expression. Release in 2026 on PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC.
Demi and the Fractured Dream from Yarn Owl is a love letter to classic action-adventures: nostalgic hack-and-slash, puzzles, and platforming through the story of the recluse Demi from the land of Somnus, who is looking for a way to escape a cursed fate. Premiere in 2026 on PS5, Xbox Series X|S, Switch 2, Switch, and PC.
