Yerba Buena 2026
Yerba Buena is a 2026 puzzle platformer video game. Players control Barb within a virtual version of 1970s San Francisco, using the Oscillator tool to copy properties like movement, rotation, and material between objects. The game was created by German indie developer Mad About Pandas, supported through a 2023 German government grant and funding from publisher Focus Entertainment. Initially revealed in March 2026, it launched on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X and Series S, and Windows on 29 May 2026. Reviews were mixed, with praise for its puzzle mechanics, visuals, and setting, but criticism directed at platforming elements, accessibility features, and narrative. Several critics drew comparisons to Portal.
