Smurf a load of this Dreams gameplay

This October will see the Smurfs return to 3D platforming with The Smurfs: Dreams, and today Microids released a gameplay trailer to show more of what the game has in store for players.

As we noted back when Dreams first got a release window, the game is worth keeping an eye on because it’s being developed by Ocellus, who previously worked on the surprisingly good (and Donkey Kong Country-esque) Marsupilami: Hoobadventure.

If this new trailer is anything to go by, Ocellus have swapped one Nintendo influence for another. Dreams gives off some Mario 3D Land vibes, with some varied worlds and, hopefully, solid gameplay. We’ll know for sure in a few months, but for now, here’s the gameplay trailer!

The Smurfs – Dreams  is going all out! Discover the new gameplay trailer for an epic preview of the incredible journey that awaits you through the wildest dreams of your favorite Smurfs.

Dive into a brand-new adventure in the heart of the Smurfs universe with the 3D platformer game from Ocellus Services: The Smurfs – Dreams, where the most fantastic dreams meet the darkest nightmares.

Ocellus is recognized for their expertise with Marsupilami: Hoobadventure. Acclaimed by critics and players, this platform game brought the iconic character back to life in the video game world.

Gargamel has devised a new nefarious plan to capture the Smurfs. The infamous character has cast a devious spell on the sarsaparilla bushes, the Smurfs’ favorite treat, plunging them into a deep sleep. Embark on a dreamlike expedition where you must wake all the Smurfs before the diabolical Gargamel reaches the village. This epic journey will plunge you into a gaming experience as thrilling as it is unexpected, for in the world of dreams, excitement can swiftly turn into the mystery of nightmares.
