TANUKI: Pon's Summer, a cozy BMX delivery adventure from Denkiworks and CRITICAL REFLEX, launches on November 10, 2026 on Steam and, according to Xbox Wire, day one with Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass.

TANUKI: Pon's Summer, developed by Denkiworks and published by CRITICAL REFLEX, launches on Tuesday, November 10, 2026. Its Steam page lists that date for Windows PC, and Xbox Wire says it is available day one with Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass, on Cloud, console and PC. No launch time or time zone has been announced, and the November 3 Xbox Wire post does not list it in Game Pass Premium or Game Pass Essential.

A summer of deliveries on a Japanese island

You play Pon, a slightly lazy tanuki with a part-time job at the post office. The Great Tanuki Festival is one month away and the island's shrine is in disrepair. Riding a BMX, Pon delivers letters and packages to the residents, and you have to plan how to fit awkwardly shaped boxes on the bike without keeping neighbors waiting.
The money and rewards you earn go into rebuilding, upgrading and decorating the shrine before the festival. According to Xbox Wire and the Steam page, side activities include working at the local bar, making sushi, joining a baseball game and stepping into the sumo ring.

BMX tricks and crossover hats

The Steam page promises more than 100 BMX challenges, with ramps, rails and trick combos across the island's paths and rooftops. Pon can also wear crossover hats inspired by Hollow Knight: Silksong, PEAK, Shovel Knight and other games.
