Balan Wonderworld takes place in a theatrical dream world. Siblings Leo and Emma are drawn to the theatre by the magical maestro Balan, where they confront the things they’ve left behind and restore balance to their emotions.
The journey unfolds across 12 different worlds divided into chapters and acts. Leo and Emma must collect trophies in each stage to unlock new paths, and doing that requires making use of special abilities.
These abilities manifest themselves through specific costumes. The Soaring Sheep costume, for example, inflates so players can glide on the wind, while the Pumpkin Puncher shoots out extendable pumpkin hands to make quick work of obstacles.
Balan Wonderworld’s multiplayer lets two players work together with separate abilities to make the journey even smoother. The Switch version makes use of both Joy-Con for multiplayer, and presumably, the other console versions require separate controllers.
Balan Wonderworld pre-orders are open on the Square Enix store. Stay tuned to GameSkinny for more Balan Wonderworld news as it develops.
