It seems like just yesterday (or February, if you want to be technical) that we had a Steam Next Fest. Well, we here at GF are back with the June 2025 edition list! Every game that we could find that featured an anthropomorphic character, or featured animals primarily, is on this list. Yes, we went through all 2500+ games to get to this list of 260+ games. 

We have an actively updated Furry & Animal Games List over at @GamingFurever that you can follow and get constant updates for lots of indie titles with TONS of lovely furry characters! If you're a developer of any of these games, feel free to hit us up on email over on our Contact Us page! We'd love to talk to you about your development!

Here's your June 2025 Steam Next Fest list (in alphabetical order):

Take on the role of a little mouse tasked with helping save and assist their good witch mentor, as you trek and solve puzzles across the stunning Scandanavian-inspired wilderness in Hela, the debut title from Windup Games, published by Knights Peak.

Check out the newest trailer for Hela below, and some of its expected features right after!

 Hela tells the enchanting story of a witch and her familiars—a gang of brave little mice. For ages, the kind witch has used her magic to aid the local folk, but now she has fallen ill and needs help herself. It’s up to the mice to find a cure and keep the “witch business” running in the meantime! 

List of key features:

• Heartwarming open world adventure, played in 3D, in third person.
• Be a witch’s familiar - a brave and agile mouse with some magical perks.
• The gameplay mixes exploration, traversal, foraging, puzzles, action, and brewing!
• Play solo or together with friends - split-screen, online, or a mix of both.
• It’s a pleasant, healing experience, set in beautiful northern Scandinavian nature.

There will never be enough cooperative story games in this world. I can’t get enough of them. But, I still want them to be well-designed, fun to play, and easily accessible to play with whomever I want. Revenge of the Savage Planet is a sequel that checks every single box and does it with tongue in cheek and cheeks on face. I played through the game from start to finish with my wife and we both thoroughly enjoyed the time we spent figuring out every puzzle, exploring every cave and mountaintop, and scanning each and every living thing around us, all the while being ferried along by a wealth of humor and personality mixed into a tasty slurry.

Becoming one with nature. Enjoying moments of zen in beautiful surroundings. Running through vast environments, enjoying the thrill of exploration and discovery. Developer Infuse Studio has refined these experiences in the sequel to the acclaimed Spirit of the North. The sheer scale and opportunity of the new land you find yourself as a fox in is lovingly crafted at every peak, step, and turn. If you’re able to flow with the up and down nature of the relaxed vibe of the exploration parts of the game, and then the much more challenging “boss” sections at the end of each area, Spirit of the North 2 will be a special game that is buoyed by its beauty, and raised by its unique charm.

Firstly, let me just say that Frog Legs is silly, short, and fun. It doesn’t take itself seriously, is meant to be completed in one play session, and is less than $3. As such, this review won’t be too long-winded and instead will focus on my overall experience with the little serving of goodness that is Frog Legs. Frog Legs focuses on a set of frogs that start off inside of the classic “Frogger” game, trying to convince a cautious fellow frog that making it across the busy street ain’t so scary. Unfortunately, that peer pressure leads to an event and adventure that will change them all…in more than a few ways. Featuring gameplay that hops from arcade to horror to boomer shooter, Frog Legs will be sure to surprise and elicit some laughs for its 30-40 minute runtime.

Looking for something new in the roguelite scene, my attention was caught by a handsome tiger warrior in the trailer for Yasha: Legends of the Demon Blade, an action RPG with roguelite elements by 7QUARK. Beyond that, the game oozed style and fast-paced action that begged to be experienced. Thankfully, that game has finally arrived on Steam. Yasha: Legends of the Demon Blade is full of character, captivating gameplay, and just as intriguing storytelling. If you’re a fan of Asian art styles and lore, this game will be a must-play for you.

Bullet hells aren’t necessarily a unique type of game to see over the past few years, so if you’re gonna develop one now, you’ve got to bring something unique (if not a few things) to the table. Fur and Fables is an Early Access release by Double Crow Games, with the spin on the tried-and-true formula being a cast of furry animal heroes that can battle through levels as a team of 1 to 6, all controlled by you in a line that becomes an auto-firing battalion that you move around the boundless stages. Additionally, the characters that make it through to the end of the stage keep the levels you upgrade them to. It was an overall surprisingly deep and fun experience that featured quirky art, unique gameplay ideas, and forgiving strategy.

When you’re looking for games to play with a buddy, sometimes you just want to work together in a comfy setting, sitting back on your couch or over Discord and enjoying a story together. Hidalgo looks to provide that in a lovely way, based on our playthrough of the demo. After a successful Kickstarter campaign that you can still make late pledges to, Hidalgo is expected to come out May 2026. This should give the team at Infinite Thread Games plenty of time to craft and perfect an already pleasant experience. Here are our thoughts on the demo of Hidalgo, which I played on Steam for this preview.

SUPER AC is thrilled to unveil the first trailer for Prohibeast. This first glimpse reveals the game’s distinctive atmosphere, tactical intensity, and richly crafted world. From the trailer and media, it appears the player gets to take on the roles of multiple different animal species and tactifully move around the city that's inhabited by other anthros.

In Prohibeast, players are transported to 1930s Chicago, a city riddled with corruption and illegal meat trafficking following a nationwide consumption ban. Players step into the shoes of Eliot Ness and his team of Untouchables, determined to dismantle Al Capone's criminal empire by operating from the shadows.

Key Features:

• Real-time strategic infiltration – Each mission offers multiple approaches, from stealthy infiltration to discreet takedowns and clever diversions.
• Environmental exploitation – Utilize hiding spots, alternative routes, and strategic distractions to achieve your objectives.
• Sharp-sensed enemies – Face opponents with keen eyesight, acute hearing, and a strong sense of smell.
• Specialist team – Lead the Untouchables, each with unique and complementary skills: tactical experts, snipers, heavy hitters, and more.
• Iconic locations – Infiltrate some of Chicago’s most emblematic sites — The Loop, the Mayor’s Mansion, the Lake Michigan docks, and more.

PROHIBEAST is set for release on PC by the end of 2025.

Is there anything slicker than a frog? What about a sea frog with a rocket-powered wrench expertly grinding and sliding his way around an overflowing amount of dangerous, varied, and exciting obstacles and objectives across giant sea-faring vessels? Seafrog, developed by OhMyMe Games, is all that and more. There’s a huge amount of gameplay stuffed inside the seahole that Master Seafrog is trapped inside that you’re trying to get out of. I found myself thoroughly enjoying the overall experience, and the game fully took advantage of its designed systems.
