MUNICH, GERMANY (JUNE 8, 2026) | Publisher FDG Entertainment has released a new gameplay trailer for Gombo during the Green Games Showcase as part of Summer Game Fest, offering players a closer look at the environmental themes behind the game’s mysterious spreading infection. The game is available now in Early Access via Steam.
The new trailer features commentary from developer Martin Cochet, who discusses the environmental inspirations behind the game’s world and the contrast between its beauty and the corruption slowly consuming it.
In Gombo, players explore a vibrant hand-drawn world where survival, crafting, farming, building, and combat are all intertwined with the mystery of a growing corruption spreading across the land. While the world feels peaceful and welcoming during the day, nightfall transforms the environment as a mysterious infection mutates creatures and threatens the balance of nature itself.
Players can explore forests, haunted woods, villages, and dungeons either solo or in seamless two-player online co-op while gathering resources, crafting equipment, building homes and farms, caring for pets, and battling infected enemies and giant bosses.
