Publisher Annapurna Interactive held its big annual games showcase on Monday, during which it revealed much more about its upcoming slate. That includes new release dates for games like to a T from Katamari Damacy creator Keita Takahashi and Skin Deep from Blendo Games, as well as new looks at Wheel World (née Ghost Bike) and Wanderstop.

In even better news, you can play some of those games right now, thanks to new demos that have dropped as part of Steam Next Fest. There’s even a fun new shadow drop for PlayStation 5 owners: Sayonara Wild Hearts is out now on Sony’s current-gen platform and features a new mode.

Here’s everything else shown at the latest Annapurna Interactive showcase.

Wheel World

Developer Messhof showed off more of its open-world, open-objective experience about biking, where players can hang out, race, and do general bike stuff. Wheel World is now slated for a summertime release on PlayStation 5, Windows PC, and Xbox Series X. There’s a new demo for Wheel World on Steam.

to a T

Uvula’s game about being stuck in a T pose got a release date: to a T is coming May 28, for PS5, Windows PC, and Xbox Series X. Keita Takahashi fans also got a fun treat in the form of a song from Steven Universe creator Rebecca Sugar, which is all about the game’s giraffe.

Wanderstop

Wanderstop, the narrative-centric cozy game about people going through changes they don’t want to go through, is out March 11, for PS5, Windows PC, and Xbox Series X. There’s a new demo on Steam for this one too.

Lushfoil Photography Sim

Take pictures around the world in this creative photography simulation from solo developer Matt Newell. Lushfoil recreates locations like Kyoto, Southern Iceland, Haute Savoie, and the Annapurna mountain range, letting players snap whatever appeals to them. The sim’s environments are “filled with objectives to reward players that have a good eye for angles and perspectives, and hidden secrets for those who are patient and observant.” In addition to a previously announced PC version, Lushfoil Photography Sim is now coming to PS5 and Xbox Series X.

Morsels

Annapurna gave us a new look at Morsels from developer Furcula during the showcase, revealing how this concrete-inspired (?????) top-down, creature-collector action roguelite will play. Basically, players will use magical cards to transform into monsters, then collect and nurture monster friends as they battle cats. Morsels is coming to Nintendo Switch and Windows PC at some point.

Skin Deep

Blendo Games, the developer behind Thirty Flights of Loving and Quadrilateral Cowboy, will release its weird new first-person shooter on April 30 for Windows PC. New gameplay footage of the immersive FPS showed off competitive gameplay on a starship, where sabotage and sneezing are tools in this creative sandbox. Skin Deep looks chaotic as heck, and a hell of a lot of fun. Try it for yourself on Steam.

Faraway

Developer Steph Thirion showed off more from Faraway, the single-player adventure in which you play as a shooting star and form constellations. In development on and off for more than a decade, Faraway is due sometime this year.

Sayonara Wild Hearts

A PlayStation 5 version of Simogo’s 2019 dreamy pop arcade game is now available. The PS5 version of Sayonara Wild Hearts adds a console-exclusive unlockable game mode, Remix Arcade, which offers infinitely replayable levels and a high-score chase. The enhanced re-release also includes 4K resolution, a 120 fps refresh rate, and DualSense support.
