This will come to PC and consoles on October 28th, and the Steam Listing is live for the Windows, macOS, and Linux edition. Get ready to be rickrolled, as the look at the game in the Announcement Trailer notes that its cast includes none other than Rick Astley himself. Here's word:

With over three decades having passed since Simon The Sorcerer first cast his spell on adventure game fans, Simon The Sorcerer Origins invites players to step back into the enchanting world of magic, sarcasm, and mystery – this time, to discover how it all began. Longtime fans will be thrilled to know that the original voice actors return in both English (Chris Barrie) and German (Erik Borner), adding an extra layer of authenticity and nostalgia to this lovingly crafted origin story.

The game features an original soundtrack composed by Mason Fischer, capturing the emotional range and whimsical tone of Simon’s magical world. And as a very special surprise, Simon The Sorcerer Origins includes music icon Rick Astley in a special role - bringing a touch of 80s soul to the fantasy adventure.
