Media Molecule has announced Ancient Dangers: A Bat\u2019s Tale, a new playable game the studio made in its 2019 creation game, Dreams.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

The game seems to be centered on two dungeon-crawling protagonists who must battle \u201chideous monsters\u201d and solve \u201cfiendish puzzles\u201d to advance through Ancient Danger\u2019s medieval setting. There is, of course, loot and wealth to be found throughout each of these dungeons, and there seems to be a cute bat at the center of its story, as the name alludes to.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

As you can see in the trailer above, Ancient Dangers looks quite great and it\u2019s tough to picture it as a game made inside Dreams, which is itself a game. Credit to Media Molecule, though, for doing just that. Ancient Dangers looks great, too, which is especially exciting because it\u2019s already out as of today.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s the official description for Ancient Dangers:<\/p>\n

\u201cJoin the teenage orcs Scoria and Gabbro as they team up with their new friend, Herb the Bat, on a quest to find the renowned snozzleaf. Will Scoria and Gabbro find the herb they need to cure their grandmother\u2019s terrible snoring? Can their wise-cracking bat pal find his way home? Get playing now and go show those dragons what happens with you mess with teenage Orcs!\u201d <\/p>\n

Ancient Dangers is a third-person dungeon crawler,\u00a0featuring\u00a0a single-player mode where players control Scoria, and a co-op mode, which adds Scoria\u2019s twin, Gabbro, to the mix. The co-op mode is couch co-op only, though. Media Molecule says new PlayStation trophies have been added to Dreams for players to unlock while playing through Ancient Dangers, too, so if trophy hunting is your thing, you don\u2019t want to miss this.\u00a0<\/p>\n
