Trine 6: Together in Time adds an acrobat and a squire to the adventuring trio

Forzenbyte has announced Trine 6: Together in Time, the latest game in the popular puzzle platformer series.

The story starts with two new characters, Moira and Adrius, looking to pull of a magical heist, and finding themselves way in over their head when their fate is bound to that of the realm’s greatest heroes: Amadeus, Zoya and Pontius. Now they have to join the typical trio of adventurers to restore the powerful magics that have landed them in this situation, and foil a dangerous warlock who seeks to use it.

As always, Trine 6 will be at its best with co-op, encouraging your to work together and combine abilities. However, Frozenbyte ensure that every puzzle can be solved by every character, so you can pick a preferred character and playstyle, or even go it alone. While there are five characters, this is a four player co-op experience, similar to the last couple adventures. The fivesome includes:

• Amadeus the Wizard: Summon objects and manipulate the world with magic.
• Zoya the Thief: Fire arrows at foes and use a rope to traverse and interact with the environment.
• Pontius the Knight: Crush enemies with a hammer and use his shield to defend and propel allies.
• Moira the Acrobat: Chain together fluid kick combos and swing through the world using her ribbon.
• Adrius the Squire: Wield a spear in combat or plant it to create platforms for traversal.

All character now have a Time-Slow ability, which will help you to make precise jumps, dodge incoming attacks, or just give you a bit more time to process what’s going on. The combat that features within the adventure aims to be more dynamic, forcing you to dodge incoming strikes, look for openings and adapt to different enemies, some of which shield and buff their allies.

Trine 6: Together in Time is in the works for PS5, Xbox Series X|S, Switch and Switch 2 and PC.

Looking back at the last game from 2023, we said of Trine 5: A Clockwork Conspiracy, “If you’ve enjoyed the Trine series up to this point then you are in for a treat, Trine 5 is by far the best entry yet, offering puzzles that are phenomenally inventive and an utter delight to solve. If you haven’t taken the plunge yet with Trine, then now is the perfect chance. If only we could ditch the combat and have twice the puzzles, then truly would Trine reach co-op puzzling perfection.”
