The 8-bit game features Pewds dressed in a purple jester costume, complete with a magical summoning circle, spellbooks, and candles around him – which suggests the involvement of sorcery. He then greets the players: welcome to Pixeland!
The game suggests an adventure genre, complete with different locations for players to explore and unlock.
In the trailer, the 8-bit Pewds continues on to battle what it seems to be evil barrels, with a HP and mana bar to indicate if you are close to defeating these monsters.
It’s also interesting to note how the character’s sidekicks are called Pixelings. They are hatchable creatures in another Pewdiepie game, Pewdiepie: Tuber Simulator.
These creatures are known to be hatched from Pixelling eggs, which come in common, golden, diamond, or prism variation.
In Pixeland however, it hasn’t been clarified yet whether players will grow their own pixelings to get as sidekick.
Many pixeling sidekicks can help Pewds in his journey. Bob, a peach colored hero much to the likes of Majin Buu, and Stephano, an oldie but trusty samurai covered in gold.
Behind this game is the Outerminds team, who also developed PewDiePie’s Tuber Simulator, PewDiePie’s: Legend of the Brofist, Tadpole Tap and H3H3: Ball Rider.
They took it to Twitter to express their excitement over the new collaboration:
