Daedalus was commissioned by the gods to build the labyrinth. It is a tale as old as time, a Greek myth passed from family to family and beyond. Now, it seems that Artificer Games and Devolver Digital are reviving the tale anew.

That’s right, the Labyrinth-Building game Minos is coming to PC on April 9th, 2026. You will help Daedalus use the labyrinth and its minotaur, Asterion, to slay invading heroes across an array of challenges. Here is what the press release says about Minos and its new release date:

“Devolver Digital (BALL x PIT, Baby Steps) and developer Artifcer (Showgunners, Sumerian Six) have revealed the April 9 launch date for Minos, a labyrinth-building, strategic puzzle game where you protect the fabled minotaur from ‘heroes’ eager to invade his sanctuary and slay him for fame and glory.

Minos expands on and adds agency to the fates of Asterion, the former King now cursed to live on as the minotaur, and Daedalus, the genius creator of the sentient labyrinth you’ll feed the blood of adventurers to. Devise masterful, devious plans by dragging walls, gates[,] and corridors into place to shape your maze however you like. Make long, winding paths full of traps or confuse and split the interlopers up with rotating passages and shifting gates. It’s your maze: clever or cruel, it’s up to you.

Every run in Minos brings new enemies, new traps[,] and new ways to turn their bravery into a bloody disaster. No two nights are ever the same, and as you play, you’ll learn more about this not-so-mythical minotaur and the man who became it.”

Will you help Daedalus and the former king Asterion to survive the hordes of Heroes that seek the Labyrinth’s treasures? You don’t have much time to wait after all. Either way, you can wishlist it now. Excuse me while I prepare my blueprints for devilish labyrinth designs.
