Video game publisher Leoful and Malaysian indie studio Forust are pleased to announce office adventure game, The Company Man, is launching in early 2022 on Nintendo Switch worldwide. The Company Man is also planned to launch on other home consoles later in 2022.
The Company Man is a classic action platformer inspired by the popular American TV series “The Office”. You play as Jim, a young salaryman starting out at the Good Water Company. Unsatisfied with how the company is run, Jim sets out to overthrow his boss and become the CEO. Launch email attacks against coworkers with a powerful keyboard, run and jump across departments from Human Resources to Marketing, boost up with coffee beans, and show them who’s boss!
The Company Man is set to launch digitally worldwide on Nintendo eShop in early 2022, and a physical edition will be available at select retailers in Hong Kong, Taiwan, Singapore, and other Southeast Asia markets. The game is playable in English, Japanese, Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, Korean, French, Italian, German, and Spanish. The Company Man was showcased at the 2021 PAX Online Indie Showcase.
