Lost in a sudden snowstorm, they will have to lean on each other in order to follow the footprints their families left behind in the snow. Two players can take control of either the wolf cub or the fawn and guide them through the environment, unforgiving weather and obstacles that they must face together. Each animal has its own unique strengths that complement the other, which you'll need to make use of to navigate through the snowy landscapes. Build a relationship locally* on the same screen or from far away with online play.** Journey home together with Blanc on Feb. 14.
