Splash Damage teases "AAA open-world survival game" Project Astrid
Splash Damage — the UK studio behind the likes of Brink and Gears Tactics — has shared early details of its latest title, currently being referred to by the codename Project Astrid.
Specifics remain incredibly limited at present — the title is currently in the pre-production phase according to Splash Damage — but it's being described as an «AAA open-world survival game» developed in collaboration with streamers Mike «Shroud» Grzesiek and Chris «Sacriel» Ball.
There's no Project Astrid footage or even a hint of concept art at this early juncture — today's announcement trailer and assets are solely focused on the involvement of its two big-name streamers — but Splash Damage says it'll have more to reveal «in the near future».
«We're excited to share something fresh with our fans, as we take a bold step forward and craft a game that's truly different from anything we've done before,» Splash Damage CEO Richard Jolly said in a statement accompanying Project Astrid's announcement.
Today's reveal follows the unveiling of Splash Damage's other announced project, Transformers: Reactive, during December's Game Awards. That title — an online action game designed for one to four players — is scheduled to receive a closed beta later this year.
