PHOGS! sees players controlling a set of dogs, either solo or with a partner, that are joined together by a gelatinous mid-section as they take on a series of physics-based puzzles. The game was originally supposed to launch earlier this summer, but unforeseen setbacks caused by the coronavirus pandemic meant it had to be pushed back to later in the year.

James and Rob went hands-on with PHOGS! back in 2018, praising its “joyous” Nintendo-like vibes and “bonkers” gameplay. They also got a lovely photo with Red and Blue, the game’s adorable, conjoined protagonists.

PHOGS! is out 3 December on Xbox One, PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch and PC via Steam and Stadia with an RRP of $24.99 (or regional equivalent).

Xbox Game Pass subscribers (both console and PC) will be able to play the game at no extra cost as it’ll be making its way to the subscription service on day of release.

PHOGS! will also be supported on PS5 and Xbox Series S/X via backwards compatibility, Coatsink have confirmed.
