VARSAV Game Studios has announced Barkour, an upcoming action-stealth game that lets players become canine super spies. Players take on the role of T.H.U.N.D.E.R., a tail-wagging canine 009 agent working with a secret organization to fight evil (and mischievous cats) in the world. Players will face off against bizarre villains but worry not. The game is packed with good-natured humor, where each mission is like an episode of a spy comedy with twists and turns, intensive platforming, and “fetching” locations.
Even though T.H.U.N.D.E.R. is a trained professional, he remains a regular dog at heart. He still needs to chase his tail, scratch an elusive itch behind his ear, and occasionally sniff someone’s behind… even in the heat of battle. Dangerous, and yet undeniably adorable, he’s the perfect mix of agent and man’s best friend.
Developers revealed more about the game in the introductory trailer that also announced a 2025 release window.
