Following the cancellation of Earthblade last year, fans of indie platforming royalty finally have a fresh project to look forward to. Extremely OK Games is stepping up to publish City of None, an upcoming metroidvania developed by Celeste co-creator Noel Berry alongside his brother Liam. According to reporting from Rock Paper Shotgun, the game drops players into a decaying metropolis as a spirit inhabiting a discarded wooden body, navigating a world run amok with wicked beasts, ferocious robots, and grasping barons.
Early previews show off a striking visual identity leaning heavily into subdued color palettes and sharp pixel art, paired with snappy, reactive movement mechanics. Noel Berry is handling programming while Liam takes charge of sound, with both brothers sharing duties on design, narrative, and art. Early combat snippets hint at high mobility and creative split-second counterattacks, giving the exploration plenty of mechanical teeth to match its moody atmosphere.
While a firm release date remains under wraps beyond a broad 2027 window, the project immediately resets the spotlight on one of the most reliable creative teams in the indie space. For players eager to dive into a new world of traversal upgrades and hidden secrets, the Steam page is live for wishlisting now. You can read the original details over at Rock Paper Shotgun.
