Out of Words has marked Valentine's Day with an original poem by artist Morten Søndergaard. The poem accompanies a new visual asset and underscores the game's themes of love and connection. This celebration precedes the co-op platformer's launch later in 2026.
Out of Words, a cooperative platforming adventure developed by Kong Orange and WiredFly in collaboration with Morten Søndergaard, is set for release later in 2026. Published in partnership with Epic Games Publishing, the game invites players to control characters Kurt and Karla as they search for their lost voices in a vibrant, handcrafted world.
The development team shared Søndergaard's heartfelt poem on February 14, 2026, to highlight the game's emotional core. This original work, penned by the acclaimed artist known as a 'Game Poet,' celebrates themes of love, connection, and rediscovery. A new visual asset was released alongside the poem, emphasizing vulnerability and shared expression.
Out of Words supports both online cross-platform play and couch co-op, focusing on collaboration where players must communicate and synchronize movements to navigate obstacles. Its aesthetic features hand-built colorful environments with a tactile, storybook-like quality, integrating Søndergaard's poetic vision into the narrative and design.
Earlier announcements provide context for the project. The game was revealed during the Summer Game Fest Showcase, described as a handcrafted co-op platformer heading to PC and consoles in 2026. A new trailer appeared at The Game Awards 2025, confirming the 2026 release and a version for Switch 2.
This Valentine's Day initiative reinforces the game's emphasis on emotional bonds, preparing players for an imaginative cooperative experience.
