The world of upcoming action RPG Soulframe is surprisingly quiet. A luscious forest looms ahead, tree branches framed by a gentle mist. Animals scuttle about in the undergrowth, while gentle sunlight shines through the canopy. As vivid and distinctive as the Scottish Highlands or the Serengeti, Soulframe’s environments are a testament to natural beauty.
This is exactly what Jeff Crookes, creative director of Soulframe at Digital Extremes, had in mind when creating the upcoming fantasy title. Though currently only in a prototype state, TRG was treated to a hands-off demo of the game, as well as an opportunity to pick Crookes’ brain about his latest project. Like Warframe before it, Soulframe aims to provide a free-to-play co-op-friendly experience. That said, Crookes and his colleagues are aiming to take a “big swing” with Soulframe, going off the beaten path.
