And now, he's set to make his presence known in the world of game development.

Sacriel added to this and said:
The game is believed to be in development, so it's unclear when the title might be launched. Given that such big names are involved in the entire creative process, fans can expect a one-of-a-kind experience the moment Project Astrid goes live. Since this IP is being built from the ground up, gamers will likely see a lot of innovation in terms of gameplay when Project Astrid finally goes live.
