The Holy Gosh Darn now slated for Summer 2024 release (UPDATE)
Back in February of last year, Yogscast Games announced that The Holy Gosh Darn, a hilarious comedy adventure with a time-travelling twist, was coming to Switch in late 2023. That obviously didn’t happen, but now the publisher is back with a new trailer and release date. We can now expect this title to arrive sometime in Summer 2024.
From the creators of Manual Samuel and Helheim Hassle, The Holy Gosh Darn is a laugh-out-loud narrative adventure that puts players in the role of Cassiel, an angel who must prevent an army of Phantoms from overrunning Heaven – which is really annoying because that’s where you live.
Discovering the existence of the Holy Gosh Darn, a mysterious artefact created by God thousands of years ago, you must strap on your time-travelling watch and set about hopping between the past, present and future, meeting a cast of ridiculous characters across dynamically changing locations in a bid to uncover the secret to life, universe and… well, everything.
Use your powers of time travel to jump freely through time across Heaven, Hell, Earth and Helheim. Uncover information in one timeline to alter things in another in a bid to stop your universe from going bang. Again. Expect outrageous humour, inventive puzzles and laugh-out-loud set pieces with Metroidvania-style progression – all expertly crafted by developer Perfectly Paranormal.
UPDATE: From late 2023 to Summer 2024, we’re still waiting for The Holy Gosh Darn to launch. Thankfully, it appears the wait is nearly over, but that Summer 2024 plan is no longer happening…barely. According to the Switch eShop, we can expect The Holy Gosh Darn to arrive on September 26th, 2024.
