The latest Nintendo Direct showcased an interesting new game from Focus Entertainment and Douze Dixiemes titled "MIO: Memories in Orbit," a metroidvania adventure planned for release sometime in 2025 on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation, Xbox, and PC.
Explore a Mesmerizing and Dangerous World as MIO
In this game, you'll take control of MIO, a nimble robot with extraordinary abilities. You'll wake up aboard the Vessel, a massive spaceship drifting aimlessly in space. This technological ark, once serving an unknown purpose, now lies in ruins, overgrown with lush vegetation and rogue machines.
Unlock New Powers and Uncover Secrets
As you guide MIO through the vast expanse of the Vessel, you'll unlock new powers and abilities that allow you to explore new areas, face off against a fearsome bestiary, and uncover the ship's long-lost secrets. Delve into the heart of this technological labyrinth to revive its lost memories.
