Moomintroll: Winter's Warmth is a story-driven puzzle adventure RPG developed by Hyper Games, scheduled for release in 2026 on PC, PlayStation 5, Mac, and Nintendo Switch. A spiritual successor to Snufkin: Melody of Moominvalley, it draws from Tove Jansson's Moomin stories — specifically the Moominland Midwinter narrative — while standing as an independent experience accessible regardless of familiarity with the previous game or the source material. The story follows Moomintroll, who wakes from hibernation ahead of schedule to find Moominvalley transformed by winter and emptied of familiar company. Reluctantly venturing into a landscape shaped by Nordic nature — valleys, forests, and mountains — he encounters both old and new characters, completing quests and puzzles to help those around him. The game frames winter as simultaneously difficult and rewarding, with themes of friendship, community, and personal growth running throughout its cozy, hand-crafted world.
When Moomintroll unexpectedly wakes up early from his winter hibernation, he finds himself completely alone for the first time, in a world he barely recognizes. The familiar landscape of Moominvalley is now cloaked in the frosty veil of the Lady of the Cold. Initially seeking someone to care for him and longing to banish winter, young Moomintroll reluctantly embarks on a journey into the unknown, learning to forge new friendships and help those in greater need than himself.
From the creators of Snufkin: Melody of Moominvalley comes a heartwarming new adventure inspired by the beloved Moomin stories by Tove Jansson. This time, join Moomintroll himself on a charming but cold winter journey.
