Experience climbing like never before in this action-puzzle climber and meditative journey to reach the top of an immeasurable tall tower and uncover clues along the way. Challenge yourself at your own pace, explore different paths, and unravel the secrets left behind from a bygone civilization with the help of a mysterious companion.
Players will need to master climbing tools and watch their stamina to successfully navigate this tower. They’ll be challenged to figure out how best to use their tools to explore and reach the different ways up, as they go higher and hone their skills. Different paths contain clues and leftover signs of whatever happened to the people that once lived there.
Accompanied throughout the climb by a peaceful, atmospheric soundtrack, let yourself be carried by Jusant's meditative atmosphere and discover a diversity of breathtaking environments. There are several biomes to explore, each home to unique flora and fauna. Prepare to face the elements on arid, windy slopes, find refuge in tunnels lit only by bioluminescence, and much more.
But you won’t be alone, as a mysterious companion will join you for the journey. The Ballast, an intriguing small creature made entirely of water, will guide the climber by waking nature along the way and helping to reveal hidden paths and clues of the tower’s unknown past.
“We are very pleased to be announcing our newest game launching in Fall 2023, Jusant, at the Xbox Games Showcase. It’s a unique take on climbing that we hope all kinds of players can enjoy, with its calming and peaceful atmosphere. With Harmony: The Fall of Reverie, Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden, and now Jusant, 2023 is shaping up to be one of DON’T NOD’s most exciting years yet.”, shares Oskar Guilbert, CEO of DON’T NOD.
Jusant is developed and published by DON’T NOD and will be available on PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5 in Fall 2023 and the demo is available to play right now on Steam.
