Eternal Strands is due for release next year
FormerDragon Agedirector Mike Laidlaw is making a new fantasy game.Eternal Strandsis third-person adventure pitched as a mixture of Shadow Of The Colossus andMonster Hunterwith Tears Of The Kingdom’s physics powers. The trailer, which you’ll find below, certainly has giants you can clamber across and spray with goop.
Laidlaw has beenteasing a new fantasy gamefor a while. It’ll be the first release from Yellow Brick Games, the studio Laidlawset up in Quebec with other former BioWare and Ubisoft developers. (Laidlaw had worked at Ubisoft for a couple of years, reportedly on acancelled Arthurian RPG.)
If I was making a new fantasy game, I would definitely announce it by immediately comparing it to the three most beloved fantasy games/series in existence. Eternal Strands does look pretty cool to my eye, mind. I am never not excited to be able to climb up enemies, a thing that my ’90s gamer brain still thinks should be impossible.
