We Are OFK

Team OFK announced a release date for We are OFK is set for this month.

We are OFK is launching on August 18th across Windows PC (via Steam), Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, and PlayStation 5. We Are OFK was originally announced in 2020, and has been relatively quiet during its development.

The game tells the story through the lens of a “making-of” documentary and follows the four main characters are as they navigate their personal and professional lives while living in Los Angeles.

We Are OFK promises 5 episodes for the interactive series, as well as 5 interactive music videos. The game will be fully voiced by long time voice actors from projects like Toy Story 4, Deathloop, Psychonauts 2, Killer 7, and Yakuza: Like a Dragon.

The art style and animation is appealing and hopefully, as an interactive story rather than a video game, the developers will know how to weave an interesting narrative that will appeal to the hip young crowd.

Here’s a new trailer:

From indie pop band OFK comes the story of how four friends came together to release their debut EP without throwing their phones at walls in frustration. An interactive making-of-the-band series about dreaming, dating, and paying rent in Los Angeles.
