Rockbeasts is an upcoming RPG centered around managing a grunge band in an alternate 1990s setting, where all characters are anthropomorphic animals. The game blends music management with narrative choices, aiming to guide the band toward fame while navigating the challenges of the rock scene. A developer-narrated gameplay video offers a 12-minute look at core mechanics and world-building, highlighting the quirky tone and unique art style reminiscent of Bojack Horseman. The playable demo is scheduled for release this summer.
The game will launch on PC, PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch. Players will shape their band’s journey through decisions affecting performance, relationships, and public image. The project emphasizes creative freedom and character-driven storytelling within a stylized, animal-centric universe. For those interested, the title can be added to a wishlist on Steam.
