Get ready for the most chaotic royal escort in gaming history.
Developed by an indie team Next Big Game Studio, Hold Your King is a physics-based co-op platformer designed to push both your coordination skills and friendships to the limit.
While creating the game, the developers aimed for more than just laughter they wanted players to experience the unique tension that comes from trying to communicate under pressure, stay balanced in absurd situations, and follow the laws of physics… or at least try to.
It’s not just about carrying a king, it’s about not losing your mind or your teammate while doing it. Finishing this game without breaking your friendship might just be the ultimate test of trust.
Launching in Q3 2025, Hold Your King is now available to wishlist on Steam.
Some Gameplay Mechanics of Hold Your King
Hold Your King features a fully simulated ragdoll character and physics-based interactions that require careful coordination and control. Even small mistakes can cause the king to fall. Adding to the challenge, the king occasionally behaves unpredictably during transport such as whipping the players, which directly shifts his weight and disrupts the balance. Players must work together to adjust, maintain stability, and navigate through dynamic obstacles.
