Happy national Garfield day, everyone! This is apparently a thing, so why not celebrate the holiday with news of a new Garfield game announcement? Garfield - Escape from Monday is a newly announced 3D platforming adventure. It's being developed by OSome Studio and published by Microids and is set to drop on September 24, 2026 for Switch, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC.
Today's press release says that Garfield - Escape from Monday is "more than just a colorful adventure." The game "captures the spirit of one of the world's most beloved entertainment franchises." It's a game that is "designed to appeal to audiences nostalgic for Jim Davis's famous 'cattitude' and gaming enthusiasts" that "breaks the mold." Move over, Grand Theft Auto 6!
For Garfield, spending most of his time sleeping is part of the routine. But spiraling into a bizarre nightmare full of vegetables, sugar-free candies, and other unimaginable horrors, even the world’s laziest cat knows something is wrong!
After Jon fed him spinach lasagna inspired by Chef Monday’s recipe, Garfield falls into a deep sleep... in order for Garfield to wake up from the nightmare and reactivate his taste buds, he must embark on a deliciously chaotic adventure, where players will explore worlds packed with enemies, challenges, and lasagna.
Thankfully, Garfield can rely on Jon and his friends Odie, Arlene and Pookie, as well as a collection of special costumes, including turkey, surfer and cowboy, each with its own unique skill, to overcome the dangers lurking within Garfield’s dreams.
