The development team Summer Eternal, comprised of former Disco Elysium staff, has unveiled their debut project titled Red Rooster. Described as an incendiary RPG, the game focuses on a narrative where players must navigate a complex investigation within a unique political landscape.
Players control Redrick Roost, a prisoner tasked with investigating a series of city fires to earn his freedom. He is joined by a mathematician and a bus driver to uncover links between the arson and his brother, the city's fire chief. The game features interactive physics-based mechanics inspired by titles like Planescape: Torment and the Divinity series.
Set in the city of Arta-Tantor, the world blends 80s Yugoslavian Riviera aesthetics with Ottoman, Scandinavian, and Dutch colonial influences. Built using Unreal Engine, the environment is designed to react dynamically to fire, allowing players to manipulate and burn objects throughout the world.
While no release date is confirmed, the game is slated for an initial PC launch. Subsequent releases are planned for PS5, Xbox Series, and Nintendo Switch 2. Funding is currently supported through the sale of a 500-page physical magazine.
