South Park Snow Day, a new adventure featuring the potty-mouthed foursome of Cartman, Kenny, Stan, and Kyle, has now been announced as part of the THQ Nordic Showcase in 2023. Unlike South Park Digital Studios previous creations in 2014’s The Stick of Truth and 2017’s The Fractured but Whole, Snow Day sees players embark on a cooperative journey with three other players to save the world as opposed to it being a single-player adventure.
The developer’s third series installment also employs much-improved 3D graphic designs instead of the 2.5D perspective offered in the previous games. Much like its predecessors, however, Snow Day will similarly be set in the titular city of South Park where you and your group will need to navigate its chaotic streets to battle enemies and, most importantly, enjoy a worry-free day without school.
South Park Snow Day had initially been teased by THQ Nordic during their 2022 event. Towards the end of the showcase, the publisher revealed it by flashing the South Park Digital Studios logo on-screen, after which a soundbite of Randy Marsh could be heard in the background exclaiming that “it’s coming.” Though no additional details were provided afterwards, many surmised that the vague scene was essentially the studio’s way of announcing their next project.
In keeping with the trend of previous entries, South Park Digital Studios has switched it up once again with their choice of developer after partnering with Question Games. Best known for making cooperative thriller The Blackout Club and game-developer-nightmare-turned-video-game The Magic Circle, the indie studio is set to put their own stamp on this satirical franchise once the game releases in 2024 for current gen platforms including the PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, PC, and the Nintendo Switch.
