The Plucky Squire, one of the most charming games of 2024, will finally be available in physical format on February 21. Initially published for all major consoles and PC by Devolver Digital last September, The Plucky Squire's physical release is limited to PS5 and Nintendo Switch. Two different editions are up for preorder, including the Devolver Deluxe Edition, a $55 box set containing the game, an art book, and the original soundtrack.

The Plucky Squire Devolver Deluxe Edition costs $55 and comes with a physical copy of the game on either PS5 or Nintendo Switch, plus the following extras:

• A Collector’s box with unique cover art
• A 112-page paperback art book
• Digital soundtrack download code

The Plucky Squire is one of those games that almost makes too much sense for the art book treatment. After all, the game shares its title with the book inside the game. Now, players will be able to flip through an art book about a game about a book.

If you just want a boxed copy of the game on PS5 or Nintendo Switch without all the extras, you can also preorder The Plucky Squire standard physical edition for $35.

If you're unfamiliar with the game, The Plucky Squire is an adventure game that mixes multiple genres, including top-down action-adventure, side-scrolling platforming, and more.

You play as Jot, a character in the The Plucky Squire book where the game takes place. Unfortunately, Jot is forced out of his home by Humgrump. This sets up The Plucky Squire's unique visual and gameplay style. The Plucky Squire melds hand-drawn 2D and colorful 3D graphics as Jot ventures forth on his adventure outside and inside of the book. It's an ambitious debut game from indie studio All Possible Futures. The studio was co-founded by ex-Pokemon art director James Turner, and Jonathan Biddle, who served as creative director on another hand-drawn Zelda-like indie, The Swords of Ditto.

It earned a 9/10 in GameSpot's The Plucky Squire review.
