The first trailer for Furi introduces Barty Shepherd (known for his roles in Next Big Thing and Sinners Haven) as the main character, The Rider.

Kristen Shepherd isn’t just starring in the upcoming ‘Furi’ series – she’s also writing and running the show. The adaptation promises a thrilling and visually stunning adventure, staying true to the original game thanks to close collaboration with its creators, The Game Bakers. Midnight Embers Productions is producing, with Lucy Miles overseeing the project. Fans of the game’s music will be excited to hear tracks from artists like Carpenter Brut, Danger, and The Toxic Avengers featured in the miniseries.

Furi introduces players to The Rider, a warrior freed from a strange, magical prison after years of being held captive by a being called The Voice. Now, he must fight through bizarre and dangerous lands, each controlled by a powerful Guardian who holds hidden secrets. The Rider’s goal is to save his people from disappearing forever. As the story unfolds, players meet other courageous fighters, all struggling with their own inner conflicts, in a world where the idea of justice is complicated and the difference between good and evil isn’t always clear. These warriors are motivated by things like freedom, a desire for forgiveness, pride, the pursuit of power, and love. They all believe they’re doing what’s right, but the story asks: who actually decides what’s right and wrong?
