Way back in March 2020—a month in which we all, collectively, were a bit preoccupied—Epic Games announced a trio of big publishing deals with game studios Remedy, Playdead, and GenDesign. It's been a long wait to see what Playdead and GenDesign were cooking, but the latter debuted at tonight's Game Awards, a follow-up to The Last Guardian nearly a decade in the making. Japanese game designer Fumito Ueda's next game is diverging from his previous fantasy settings into something that looks a lot more sci-fi.
In the Game Awards trailer, the apparently still untitled game involves a cloaked figure standing on the shoulder of a giant robot while a destructive shockwave heads in their direction. We're sure this one's going to get plenty of microscopic analysis in the days to come.
