During this week’s Wholesome Snack showcase, developer Hyper Games unveiled the brand-new anniversary trailer for Moomintroll: Winter’s Warmth, a cozy puzzle adventure launching on PC and consoles in 2026. The reveal also marks a major moment for the beloved Moomin franchise as it continues celebrating its 80th anniversary in 2025.
The trailer offers a touching return to a frost-covered Moominvalley, inviting viewers back into Tove Jansson’s timeless universe with a heartfelt message centered on community, compassion, and togetherness — themes more relevant now than ever.
A Cozy Spiritual Successor to Snufkin: Melody of Moominvalley
Following the success of Snufkin: Melody of Moominvalley, Hyper Games once again brings players into a beautifully reimagined Moominvalley, this time through the eyes of Moomintroll himself. While Moomintroll: Winter’s Warmth is not a direct sequel, it stands as a spiritual successor filled with familiar charm and a lovingly crafted atmosphere.
In this new chapter, Moomintroll awakens to a valley locked in the icy grip of the Lady of the Cold. To restore warmth and balance, he must work alongside old friends and quirky neighbors, uncovering stories, solving puzzles, and exploring environments inspired by Jansson’s classic tale Moominland Midwinter.

Hyper Games continues to emphasize narrative warmth, cozy exploration, and visually rich world-building. Moomintroll: Winter’s Warmth blends third-person exploration with environmental puzzles, offering a relaxing, emotionally grounded experience.
