Zará also touched on how the game will approach exploration, stating the maps that players will be traversing will be “quite large” and will have “many secrets to be discovered”.

“The DNA of our game is the combination of combat and discovery of the island’s secrets,” Zará said. “The player will have interesting places to traverse as paths to new levels using their special skills.
