Told you it was coming!

Psychonauts fans received a (remarkably well-executed) stop-gap in the PSVR-exclusive Psychonauts in the Rhombus of Ruin, but 2021 finally sees the arrival of the true sequel.

Double Fine's tale of sinister children's camps, mindscape-exploring super-spies and dairy-themed conspiracies wowed PC gamers when it was released back in 2004. Tim Schaefer's typically humourous writing was paired with deceptively deep character work, creating moments that still bring chills 17 years later (Pro tip: Fully explore Milla's level for one of the most mentally-scarring moments in video game history).

Whether it leaves you entertained or traumatised, Psychonauts 2 is sure to make a mark on your psyche when it releases this year.
