The perpetually-scowling cat player character standing next to their kei truck in Easy Delivery Co.

I spent six years as a delivery guy in a profoundly depressed area, so I'm receptive when a game like Easy Delivery Co. appeals to the universal human yearning to drive packages around in a place that sucks. It's a driving game with PS1-esque graphics, a soundtrack of laidback beats, and a bleak mountainside setting populated by eerie Animal Crossing villagers—and after an hour with the demo, it's easily one of my most anticipated games of 2025.

You play as a new hire for easyCo, a gig work delivery company that welcomes you when the game starts up with an email informing that "you are now responsible for delivering important EasyCo merchandise to and from the local businesses in [insert Profit Sector]." Not exactly reassuring, but at least they gave me a sick kei truck to do the job.
