Town of Zoz returns with a brand new trailer that pulls back the curtain on one of its most emotionally powerful features: the Village Nightmares. In this vibrant cooking action RPG from Studio Pixanoh, players step into the role of Ito, a reluctant Shaman Chef returning to a hometown that’s as warm as it is strange—and sometimes, deeply unsettling.
The new trailer, featured in today’s showcase, dives into the surreal heart of Zoz, where the everyday joys of cooking and community are shadowed by a growing unease. As players forge bonds with the townspeople and explore Zoz’s tangled past, they’ll uncover the Nightmares—twisted manifestations of unresolved emotions, lingering regrets, and family curses that threaten to consume the villagers from within.
Key Features:
Action-Fueled Combat: Take advantage of Ito’s skills with his trusty machete as you slash and dodge through enemies while teaming up with several trusted companions. Each one has their own unique skills to dispatch enemies.
True Soul Food: Food plays a central role in Zoz, with Ito preparing meals that allow him to forge relationships with the townspeople. Give villagers their favorite dishes to strengthen bonds, get to know them better, or consume meals to boost stats for future hunts.
A Town Full of Stories: Many townspeople have their own unique story, and it’s up to Ito to help them overcome personal nightmares. Help legendary heroes, quirky shopkeepers, and even the Boonbola team, a local sports group, all while discovering secrets hidden beneath the town’s surface.
Town of Zoz is currently in development for PC via Steam, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5 and Xbox.
