Double Fine’s latest game, Keeper, is out in a week and a half and the preload is now available on Xbox Series consoles.
Keeper, the latest game from Double Fine, is due out on October 17th, 2025, on Xbox Series X|S, Xbox on PC, and Steam. The preload on Xbox Series consoles is now available, weighing in at a light 25.43 GB. We got to check out Keeper in a hands-off preview back at Gamescom:
After Psychonauts 2, it’s hard to believe that DoubleFine could get even more weird, but they’ve gone and done just that with Keeper. You’ll take control of a Lighthouse, no longer happy to be confined to standing still guarding a shoreline. This it seems is all down to the arrival of a large, colourful bird named Twig, who wakes the Lighthouse from it’s slumber (do Lighthouses dream of bright coloured birds?) and it literally wrestles itself from it’s foundations, pulling in roots and stone to form itself a set of spider-like legs.
Keeper is the brainchild of DoubleFine developer Lee Petty, who also worked on titles like Stacking and RAD and a litany of others from back in the good ol’ days of Xbox Live Arcade. Interestingly, the world of Keeper was dreamed up during the COVID-19 Pandemic and fittingly, is devoid of human life, with the entire story told through animation, music and sound. Per Tim Schafer, when it came time to decide what the next game Double Fine would make should be now they’ve joined the Xbox family, it was going to be something weird.
