A cinematic deep dive into HoYoverse’s next flagship action RPG The darkness in Varsapura is never merely absence it is intention. And in this 30-minute Official Gameplay Showcase , that intention becomes visible. As the first scene fades in, the city breathes like a living organism, its veins filled with shadowlight and its heartbeat echoing through metallic streets. The player enters not as a wanderer, but as an operative standing between Shadow Bureau and the enigmatic organization SEAL two forces shaping the destiny of a city that hides more than it reveals. Built entirely on Unreal Engine 5 , Varsapura abandons the pastel fantasy style familiar to HoYoverse and embraces a darker, sharper, hyper-real urban identity. The city is drenched in motion reflections ripple across neon puddles, steel shivers under rainfall, and the shadow-born enemies pulse with unnatural rhythm. And at the center of it all? A weapon disguised as an ordinary umbrella , capable of bending shadows...

Overview Ducks, Waterparks, and Wild Rides
Set in a bright, chaotic waterpark, Slowly Sliding Ducks is a multiplayer party game that blends unpredictability with laugh-out-loud antics. With support for 8 to 16 players in core gameplay and even up to 50 in open community pools this game is all about sliding, splashing, and styling your duck to glory.
Developed by Turbolento Games, it’s launching on PC via Steam in 2025 and supports a wide range of languages including Korean, English, French, Japanese, and more, making it accessible to players worldwide.
Game Modes That Embrace Chaos
Unlike many party games that lean into competition and skill, Slowly Sliding Ducks celebrates the unpredictable. Every mini-game is designed to level the playing field, letting luck, timing, and a little bit of trolling do the heavy lifting.
Some of the wild scenarios you’ll find yourself in:
-
Racing down slippery slides, bumping and bouncing off fellow ducks.
-
Surviving wacky obstacle courses that feel more like slapstick routines.
-
Pushing your opponents into the water or being hilariously yeeted off the edge yourself.
But here's the twist: not everything has to be about winning. Want to just chill and people-watch in the community pool? Go ahead. This game thrives on spontaneity, not pressure.
Customization That’s More Than Just Cosmetic
One of Slowly Sliding Ducks’ biggest hooks is its deep and delightfully ridiculous customization system. Ducks aren't just blank slates they’re your canvas. Unlock and show off a wild variety of costumes ranging from beach-ready fits to full-on fantasy cosplay.
These unlockables aren't just rewards – they're conversation starters. You might not remember who won that last mini-game, but you'll definitely remember the duck in a giant banana suit doing somersaults mid-air.
The Aesthetic: Cute Meets Carnage
Graphically, the game leans into a soft, cartoon-style 3D aesthetic. It’s vibrant, fluid, and full of squishy charm perfect for a title that wants you to laugh more than sweat. The water effects, reflections, and physics are surprisingly detailed for such a light-hearted game, adding a nice layer of polish to the experience.
The soundtrack is equally bouncy, designed to keep you hyped without ever taking itself too seriously. Each mini-game even has its own musical twist, keeping things fresh as you slide from one round to the next.
Multiplayer Magic & Community Pools
This is a party game, and Slowly Sliding Ducks knows exactly how to create moments that are better with friends. Whether you’re teaming up or trash-talking, the game supports:
-
Quick online matchmaking.
-
Friend invites with private rooms.
-
Open sessions where up to 50 players can gather in a shared pool, showing off their ducks and mingling freely.
And yes, you’ll want to join the game’s growing community. A Discord server is in the works, and the developers are already teasing seasonal events, community challenges, and even fan-voted costume contests.
The Future What Comes After Launch?
While the base game already promises hours of fun, Turbolento Games is planning much more post-launch:
-
Seasonal content drops with new mini-games, maps, and items.
-
Event-based DLCs offering limited-time rewards and chaos.
-
Possible UGC (user-generated content) tools down the road, giving players the chance to build their own wacky waterpark challenges.
The foundation is solid and built for long-term play and community-driven content.
Price, Release, and Pre-Order Speculation
As of now, no official price or pre-order bonuses have been announced. However, looking at similar indie party games, we can expect:
-
A modest price point (~$19.99 to $24.99).
-
Potential early access bonuses including exclusive costumes.
-
Possibly a deluxe bundle with soundtrack, skins, and future season passes.
Once official pricing is revealed, it’s safe to say that jumping in early will come with some splashy rewards.
Why This Game Matters
We live in a world where so many multiplayer games are focused on high-stakes competition. Slowly Sliding Ducks dares to be different. It’s lighthearted, community-focused, and above all, fun. It’s a reminder that games don’t always have to be about perfect aim or pixel-perfect timing sometimes, the best memories come from flopping into a pool dressed as a pirate duck.
And with robust language support and an open-door attitude toward casual players, it’s also shaping up to be one of the most inclusive party games in recent memory.
Final Thoughts Are You Ready to Slide?
There’s something refreshingly ridiculous about Slowly Sliding Ducks. It’s not trying to be the next esports title it’s trying to make you and your friends laugh until your cheeks hurt. And honestly, that’s a breath of fresh air in today’s gaming landscape.
So, the real question is: What kind of duck will you be? The stylish trendsetter? The chaotic slider? The one who always gets knocked out first, but looks good doing it?
