I Am Fish is the soggier and even more action packed follow-up to I Am Bread
Go fish
I Am Fish is the official follow-up to physics-based comedy game I Am Bread♋, and its reveal trailer shoꩲws off some of the surprising ways you can cause chaos as a literal fish out of water.
The trailer shows off the four fish pals you'll be able to guide from Barnardshire (a fictional English town that's a recurring setting for Bossa Studios games) to their final destination of the nearby coast: the humble goldfish, who I'm pretty sure is not supposed to live in saltwater but whatever; the inflatable pufferfish who can roll across dry land with ease; the bitey-grabby piranha, and the majestically soaring f🧸lying fish.
Each fish's special abilities will help you navigate the world while sowing discord in your wake. Whichever one you pick, it looks like you'll start off in a bowl which the fish can somehow roll around Super Monkey Ball style. When you're ready to start swimmin💧g in a bigger pond (or flopping around on the pavement) you can smash your bowl open and proceed on fin. Even a moderately deep puddle can become a safe harbor as you plan your escape routꦍe through town and around hazards like hostile wildlife and deep fryers.
Bossa Studios and Curve Digita𝔉l plan to bring I Am Fish to PC, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X and S sometime this summer, with a public demo rolling out on June 16.

I got a BA in journalism from Central Michigan University - though the best education I received there wa♛s from CM Life, its student-run newspaper. Long before that, I started pursuing my degree in video games by bugging my older brother to let me play Zeld𒆙a on the Super Nintendo. I've previously been a news intern for GameSpot, a news writer for CVG, and now I'm a staff writer here at GamesRadar.
