Ordinary Oddness puts you in charge of a detective agency in a city where a talking loudspeaker serves as mayor. Cosmicpup Studio has announced the Unreal Engine 5 action RPG for PC via Steam, pairing supernatural investigations with fast character-swapping combat.
The reveal trailer introduces Elysian Skies, a cloud-bound metropolis where humans live alongside sentient entities called Mythoids. Beneath its everyday routines, distorted spaces hide memories and secrets from the city’s past.
Investigate City Cases and Expand Your Agency
As a Consulting Investigator, you take City Commissions to earn resources, expand your Detective Agency, and gain combat skills.
Those assignments eventually connect to Luminar, a figure from the protagonist’s past, and a conspiracy surrounding the Nightingale Theater.
Exploration spans residential Breezeway Lane, the commercial district Golden Fantasia, and the lawless Undercity. Beyond those streets lie Psycheidos Zones, where gravity shifts and buried memories become physical mazes.
Mythoids Can Be Neighbors—or Bosses
Mythoids form when leaking dimensional energy combines with objects, data, landmarks, and the human subconscious.
Some have settled into civic life, including Mayor Yeahman, a Y-shaped loudspeaker. Others pose a threat, such as a candy vending machine that becomes a boss.
The city also contains cinematic references and pop-culture homages, with environmental details providing clues to its history.
Swap Characters, Parry Attacks, and Coordinate Combos
Your agency recruits include director Sia, mechanical expert Luka, and Moonkind warrior Byakko. Combat lets you switch characters to combine elemental abilities and tag attacks.
Perfect Dodges, blocks, and parries create opportunities for counterattacks, while reading enemy cues helps you interrupt dangerous finishing moves. Enemies can also coordinate, including an eight-puppet boss unit.
Ordinary Oddness is in development for PC, with no release date announced. You can wishlist it on Steam.
