Ori and the Will of the Wisps is out next February

And includes some very big spiders.

Microsoft has just dated the new Ori game at its E3 conference. Ori and the Will of the Wisps will be released on the 11th of February 2020.

The latest installment in the series of extremely pretty Metroidvanias, Ori and the Will of the Wisps will be coming to Xbox One and PC, and will be available on Game Pass at launch.

The release date came at the end of a suitably lavish trailer that also showcased a lot of horrible screen-filling monsters, such as spiders and weird tentacle things. But there was also a nice bit of swooping about against a bloomy pink sunset.
