The company supports a small team, ZeDrimeTim, which will release a game on April 2, 2026, about a friendly octopus sneaking and fighting for survival.
Darwin's Paradox combines platformer, adventure, and puzzles: swim, hide, and use the unique abilities of the octopus to overcome dangers and uncover the secrets of a conspiracy that could change the fate of humanity. A visually rich world, a plot with humor and emotions, and interactive levels with puzzles and amazing characters are promised.
After the showing at State of Play, a playable demo became available, and the game will receive references to Metal Gear Solid. Konami hopes that the small game will attract attention to new franchises and could be the beginning of the publisher's indie line.
