What do combat sports look like if fuzzy Muppet-like characters are swinging the punches? Felt That: Boxing answers this question you didn’t know you had until now. Revealed during Summer Game Fest 2025, Felt That Boxing is a boxing game that tells a Rocky-like sports underdog story, with the impressive twist that it’s all made using puppets … very vulgar puppets. The end result is a visual style that you’ve never seen before in games. See it for yourself in the new trailer below.
Felt That: Boxing comes from Sans String Studio, a new team that was announced a year ago. The debut game looks incredibly ambitious, much like Cuphead, except it replaces Cuphead’s golden-age, hand-drawn animation with the look of The Muppets Show.
The game can now be wishlisted on Steam, though no release date has yet been revealed.
