Having been in development for over four years at Quebec-based studio Yellow Brick, Eternal Strands has just been officially revealed. This is an ambitious-sounding action adventure game, with an emphasis on giant enemies and environmental gameplay.
The press release sums things up rather nicely: «Fight epic, 25-meters-high climbable creatures known as the Arks, while blending magical abilities with an arsenal of powerful weapons to keep the world from crumbling. Use the environment and extreme weather events to your advantage in battles against a big roster of fantastical creatures. Immerse yourself in a vast and rich lore where you will build relationships with a diverse cast of characters.»
Eternal Strands has been confirmed for PS5, but it won't be releasing until 2025. Still, we should be seeing a lot more of the game in the relatively near future — and we wouldn't be at all surprised if it popped up during events like Summer Game Fest.
