Remember Coldwood Studios’ cute yet gorgeous looking platformer Unravel which was featured at Electronic Arts’ E3 press conference this year? It seems to have a release date, of sorts, for next year.

EA revealed during its recent financial earnings call that the platformer will be out in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2016, indicating a release date between between January 1st and March 31st 2016. The game will be coming to PS4, Xbox One and PC and its release seems to be around the time that Mirror’s Edge Catalyst and Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare 2 are out.

Unravel tells the story of Yarny, a little anthropomorphic being composed entirely of yarn who can use it to traverse through different environments. Not many details have been revealed about the story aside from players moving away from what they love in the process of unraveling the yarn that makes up Yarny.

Coldwood’s Unravel may have been one of the most unexpected surprises coming out of E3 2015, that too at EA’s press conference. The indie title comes from a relatively unknown team comprised of 14 individuals but impressed the world with its beautiful art style, intriguing tone and premise and unorthodox gameplay.

Creative director Martin Sahlin was in a recent interview on Sony’s official PlayStation channel as part of the ongoing live coverage at E3. Some gameplay footage was also showcased which gave us a peak at Yarny’s abilities. The objective of each “level” seems to rely on a finite amount of string, which must be used to make it to the end. There’s still a lot more that Sahlin and his team are yet to reveal, including the overall story and we can’t wait to find out more.

Unravel currently doesn’t have a release date. Stay tuned for more details as E3 rolls on.
