Overview

  • Developers revealed this week that production on Thimbleweed Park 2 has begun and the game's Steam store page is live for wishlisting.
  • Ron Gilbert confirmed core members from the 2017 team are returning, including Gary Winnick, Mark Ferrari, David Fox, Octavi Navarro, and Robert Megone.
  • The game is described on the store page as “not really a sequel, not really a prequel,” and centers on a murder at the Edmund Mansion with Agents Ray and Reyes investigating.
  • Terrible Toybox will self‑publish with support from an unnamed private investor and targets an early 2028 release for Windows, macOS, and Linux on PC storefronts, with no trailer or console windows announced yet.
  • The announcement follows the 2017 Kickstarter‑backed original and the team plans a dev blog to share progress, which should keep the franchise’s dedicated fanbase engaged while broader platform plans remain unconfirmed.
