[June 6th, 2026]: Game Pop Studio’s debut title They Will Come showcased a brand new trailer at Future Games Show today – alongside a confirmed Steam release date of Summer, 2026.<\/p>\n
\n
<\/p>\n
They Will Come is a cinematic steampunk horror adventure directed by Jeff Troutman – an award-winning Art Director with over 30 years of experience at studios including Midway Games and Petroglyph. The game is set aboard The Endeavor, a vast airship and manufacturing site for hundreds of powerful automatons, and home to eleven-year-old Benjamin and his family of inventors. When crow-masked cultists known as the Wretched Ones seize the ship and take his family hostage, Benjamin refuses to give in. Armed with a slingshot and the hope that the dormant giant robot Talus is still somewhere in the hangar below, he sets out to take back everything that has been taken from him.<\/p>\n
\n
<\/p>\n
They Will Come is played from a close, cinematic over-the-shoulder perspective, placing players inside the tension of every encounter as they explore the Endeavor’s hangars, catwalks, maintenance tunnels, and observation decks – all hostile territory. Staying hidden is the only reliable path to survival: use shadows, environmental puzzles, and a scattered army of small automatons called Embots to keep one step ahead of the Wretched Ones. Talus – enormous and powerful but drained of his energy cells – needs Benjamin as much as Benjamin needs him; restore his power and the dynamic shifts, putting the hunters on the back foot.<\/p>\n
\n
<\/p>\n
The new trailer, debuting at today’s Future Games Show, follows the viral success of the game’s first gameplay trailer on IGN. With Summer 2026 now confirmed as the release date, They Will Come is just weeks away from its full Steam launch.<\/p>\n
