The Whispered World gets North American publisher announcement

With the UK release of Daedalic's The Whispered World nearing its scheduled release, all has been quiet on the North American front. Not even a whisper. Today, however, Viva Media is making plenty of noise with its announcement that they'll be releasing the game in April.

The Whispered World tells the story of a little clown named Sadwick and his caterpillar companion, Spot. This is one clown with serious issues confronting him, however, as Sadwick has a prophetic dream that the "the world he knows is doomed to crumble and fall." Worse still, he himself will be integral in its destruction if he can't find a way to reverse the current course of events. And so he and his skill-adapting pet set off on a journey that takes them through a variety of stunning hand-painted locations, though numerous obstacles and dangers await them on their way.

The scheduled release date in North America is April 26th. In the meantime, for more information about The Whispered World, be sure to check out our hands-on preview and the game's official website.
