Hello tree victims!
Earlier this week, we revealed a new trailer at the Future Games Show at gamescom. It was quite a surprise to be invited to such an event, but it was an good chance to finally announce the release date for Trees Hate You: November 16, 2026!
That'll make it close to a year since I announced Trees Hate You in late 2025. Now we just need to wait a few more months to finally get the punchline of this joke of a game.
New Key Art
You may have noticed that Trees Hate You has new cover art, thanks to the illustrator Austin Bradley. We commissioned the old art early in development, before we had a clear idea of the kinds of trees that would appear in the game, so it felt right to revisit it now to better represent more of the kinds of traps you'll actually find in the game.
Progress Update?
Not much to share this time, since most of the focus lately has been on spoilery late-game levels. But we've continued to add more tree types, more traps, and more secrets for those who explore away from the main path. This is turning into a pretty weird game, but I'll shut up now so there are still some surprises when it releases in a few months.
