Indie publishing label Modus Games and developer Finish Line Games today shared the first look at Skully, the story of a reanimated skull’s second chance at life. The action-adventure platformer that sees Skully on a quest to stop a simmering war between feuding siblings, rolls onto Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, Steam, and Xbox One on August 4, 2020.

Gameplay in Skully’s debut trailer shows just a few ways the headstrong hero’s clay-boosted forms can open up new areas of the unpredictable landscape.
“We’re really excited to share Skully with the world – We think a lot of people will connect with the game and its heroic journey of a seemingly unimposing character destined to accomplish great things.”
Daniel Posner, CEO of Finish Line Games
