The Disco Elysium spiritual successor rivalry gets even more confusing as one of the studios made of former ZA/UM devs change their new RPG's name and gameplay style

Key art for Tangerine Antarctic shows two characters stood side by side in front of a snowy background and hotel.

One of the numerous Disco Elysium spiritual successors currently in development has undergone significant changes – it's been given a new, arguably stranger name, and a shift away from the isometric gameplay that made it feel even more like ZA/UM's groundbreaking RPG.

The game in question, originally known as XXX Nightshift, comes from Dark Math Games – a studio formed of a number of former ZA/UM developers, and not to be confused with Longdue Games, another studio with former ZA/UM developers working on their own spiritual successor to Disco Elysium called Hopetown. Which also isn't to be confused with the next RPG from ZA/UM itself, formerly known as Project C4 but now revealed to be called Zero Parades.
