Perfect Tides: Station to Station Arrives at its Destination via Nintendo Switch and PC on January 22, 2026

Three Bees unveils the release date for Perfect Tides sequel at Women-Led Games Showcase

PHILADELPHIA – June 7, 2025 – Perfect Tides: Station to Station, the coming-of-age point n' click narrative adventure sequel to developer Three Bees’ award-winning Perfect Tides, launches on Nintendo Switch, PC, and Mac on January 22, 2026, as revealed during the Women-Led Games Showcase.

Written and designed by Meredith Gran, the creator of the hit webcomic Octopus Pie, Perfect Tides: Station to Station follows the story of Mara, an 18-year-old woman who makes a life-changing move away from her cozy island home. Join her as she takes her tentative first steps on a journey of self-discovery and dives headfirst into the big city college experience.

Help Mara wrestle with the decisions of young adulthood as she pursues her dreams of becoming a successful writer and explores her first taste of independence. As the year progresses, new opportunities and challenges arise, found across more than 60 distinct, detail-rich environments filled with a heartfelt cast of dynamic characters. 

Choose how Mara spends her time as she meets new friends and potential romantic partners, falls into interesting conversations between classes, and travels along the city’s mass transit system. Develop her unique writing voice by synthesizing these experiences into thoughtful essays - or awkward rambles no one will want to read.

“As with projects like Octopus Pie, I want to bring a strong sense of authorship to Perfect Tides: Station to Station,” explains Three Bees founder Meredith Gran. “It’s a game about growing up at a specific time, but it’s also a game about writing, so it’s always been important to me that players can identify the author’s voice as they play it.”

Perfect Tides: Station to Station launches on Nintendo Switch, PC, and Mac via Steam on January 22, 2026. For more information, please visit the official website, follow the team on Bluesky, and Twitter/X, join the community on Discord, and search #PerfectTides on all social media platforms.
