Team17 and Wych Elm have set an October 8, 2026 release date for Silver Pines on Steam, and released a playable demo alongside the announcement. The game follows private detective Red Walker through the neo-noir town of Silver Pines as he searches for missing musician Eddie Velvet. Hand-drawn rotoscope animation gives the 2.5D world a distinct look. The map is built around locked doors and hidden passages, with new clues and items expanding the player's reach in classic Metroidvania fashion. Monsters and bosses require careful management of ammunition and healing items, and reloading revolvers uses quick-time events to heighten tension.
