Octodad Coming to Xbox One Next Week

 

The game where you play as an octopus pretending to be a normal dad, Octodad: Dadliest Catch, is coming to Xbox One next week. Developer Young Horses has announced that the game will launch for Microsoft’s current-generation console next Wednesday, August 26.

You’ll be able to buy the wacky game on that date for $15.

It also comes with the “Shorts” DLC (containing 40+ new objectives and more), while Young Horses also says it’s looking into the possibility of “alternate control schemes unique to Xbox One” that will be talked about in greater depth at a later date.

Octodad: Dadliest Catch comes to Xbox One by way of Microsoft’s ID@Xbox self-publishing digital games program. Other games under this banner include Goat Simulator, Cuphead, Ark: Survival Evolved, The Flame in the Flood, and others.

In Octodad: Dadliest Catch, you go about your day, trying to perform simple tasks, which become hilariously difficult because you control each of your tentacles independently.

The game is already available for PC, PlayStation 4, and PlayStation Vita. It’s due to launch for Wii U later this year.
