Almost three years since it first made a splash as a Kickstarter project, We Happy Few finally has a release date: August 10, 2018.
The game takes place in a “tranquil” alternate reality 1960s England, where the townsfolk of Wellington Wells have gone off their meds, literally. A government-mandated medication known in-game as “Joy” keeps everyone in an artificial state of subdued happiness. The game picks up when people begin to rebel against the forced medication, suffering violent and bizarre withdrawal symptoms.
