The Knightling Announced

Saber Interactive announces The Knightling, an action/adventure coming to PC and consoles next year. Its Steam Listing is live, showing a "to be announced" release date. In development at Twirlbound, this promises questing, combat, and platforming in a "semi-open world" in a "lighthearted adventure for heroes of all sizes." A Reveal Trailer shows off your pint-sized protagonist and sets up the story in a comedic cinematic. Here's a bit on what to expect:
When Sir Lionstone, the legendary protector of the great city of Clesseia, mysteriously disappears, it’s up to his plucky Knightling to take up his magic shield, become the hero the people need, and find Sir Lionstone before it’s too late. Explore the enchanting lands of Clesseia, battle monsters and bandits, unearth the realm’s long-lost secrets, and unlock the extraordinary powers of Sir Lionstone’s mighty shield. Who says you need a sword to save the day?!
