GOBBLE Is Playable at NIS America's PAX West Booth

NIS America is giving PAX West attendees hands-on access to GOBBLE throughout today's expo hours. The newly announced 2D action platformer is part of a booth lineup that also includes Village in the Shade and BRIGANDINE ABYSS. GOBBLE is planned for Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch 2, PlayStation 5 and PC. The convention appearance is useful for a smaller project that does not have the brand recognition of NIS America's established franchises, giving players a chance to judge its movement and platforming directly rather than relying only on trailers.

In GOBBLE, players control a ravenous creature capable of devouring environmental hazards, enemies, and obstacles to gain dynamic platforming momentum and new traversal abilities. The colorful, Saturday-morning cartoon visual aesthetic contrasts with tight, responsive acrobatic platforming designed to appeal to speedrunners and retro enthusiasts alike.

Those sampling the demo noted that the game's bite mechanics feel tactile and immediate, rewarding players who combine jumping, swallowing, and spitting projectiles to solve environmental puzzles. NIS America representatives confirmed that additional gameplay showcases will follow throughout late 2026.
