Hi! Watch this.
As of seconds ago, that premiered on stage at Geoff Keighley’s Gamescom’s Opening Night Live Twenty Twenty Five. I know at least a full third of you are immediately going back and frame-by-framing through that, but before you leave, I will kindly ask you let me reiterate: UNBEATABLE releases on November 6th, 2025 for PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X (and S).*
That’s only one year and eleven months after the release timing we put on our kickstarter four and a half years ago! That’s only, like, what, two and a half baby’s worth? (And let me tell you: this game is not half a baby.**)
Let me tell you some things about this game.
UNBEATABLE IS THE NAME OF A NARRATIVE GAME THAT WILL LAST 6-8 HOURS***
I am saying nothing more about it. (again, to those third of you already doing so, Enjoy Combing Through The Trailer.)
UNBEATABLE IS THE NAME OF AN ARCADE GAME THAT WILL LAST INFINITY HOURS
There’s far more to it than the demo has shown off (hello, my name is Mister Obvious. i wrote this sentence); the mysterious challenge board will finally not be so mysterious, there’ll be a combination of online leaderboards, cosmetic unlocks(!?), and the “””””STAR Rating”””””” system**** which we will explain more about in the future. We’re targeting a launch with 65+ playable songs (most of which we made ourselves!) and that will only grow over time. Almost all of them will be playable at every difficulty level from the beginning. :)
UNBEATABLE IS AT GAMESCOM
If you are also here in Germany for Gamescom proper, you’ll be able to play the demo with two new songs rotating in - LONER(some of you just had a little ! appear over your head), and something literally called PROPER RHYTHM BPM 271 MEMODEMO SWAG BOOTLEG. It’s by MEMODEMO, and it sounds exactly like what’s in your head when you read that just now.
Okay we lied you can expect this same update to hit the PC/PS5 demo today too, you do not need to be at the event. But the booth is very cool and it has this in it:
It also will sometimes have some of the team in it! RJ, Andrew (the directors), Rachel, and Jeff (the producers) are all there in person. The booth will also have free goodies (hooray!). For most of us, it’s our first time in The Europe, and that’s Spooky.
UNBEATABLE IS GETTING LOCALIZED…
…to Simplified Chinese at launch. We still plan on adding other languages but they will be following after. This is to ensure we have as much time as possible to have the chance to QA the new language, which is a thing you need to do because the last thing you should do when translating a game is just throw it in and cross your fingers. This should make it possible for the two to be in a quality that meets our standards. We hear a lot of you that you want UNBEATABLE in your language - but with a script this big, it’ll always be a tough effort to localize this game.
UNBEATABLE IS WOW THIS IS REALLY HAPPENING HUH?
We’ll share more soon. That’s all for now.*****
Thanks for being you.
