The story sees Beebz venturing through the Demon World and taking out different turf leaders to climb up the ranks and defeat the Demon King. Along with platforming, Beebz can also push and pull enemies, using the power of physics in combat. Some interesting mechanics include the ability to place checkpoints anywhere (or nowhere at all to go for a flawless run).

After liberating certain levels, you can also go back and complete various other challenges. If you’re not keen on using mods, then there are dyes and pets to acquire as well. Demon Turf is slated to release this year – stay tuned for more details on a date in the coming months.

Among the various new titles showcased during the Summer of Gaming expo by IGN is Demon Turf. This 3D platformer channels a 2D animated aesthetic and is about Beebz, a young demon set on becoming the Demon Queen. Check out the trailer below along with gameplay and an interview with developer Fabraz.

As Beebz explores the Demon World, she’ll take out various turf leaders and platforms her way through (even revisiting liberated levels for more challenges). Physics are pretty important as they’ll dictate the combat and even how you take damage. Checkpoints are also handled differently as you place them wherever you feel like, which sounds similar to Ori and the Blind Forest.

Other interesting features include Photo Hunt where you take pictures of hidden environments; mods that will change your playstyle; and much more. Demon Turf is currently in development for Xbox One, Xbox Series X, Nintendo Switch and PC. It will release either in 2020 or 2021 so stay tuned for more updates in the coming months.
