The Last of Us co-director Bruce Straley wants to deliver a "unique type of storytelling" with Coven of the Chicken Foot, a lush love letter to ICO and Shadow of the Colossus

Coven of the Chicken Foot.

Bruce Straley helped shape some of the most iconic PlayStation exclusives. From his time as an artist on Jak and Daxter: The Precursor Legacy through co-directing Uncharted 2: Among Thieves and The Last of Us, the Straley name is synonymous with adventures worth taking. That's one (although certainly not the only) reason his latest venture is so worthy of your attention.

Coven of the Chicken Foot will draw you into a world that heroes have long left behind. With monsters slain and dungeons plundered, you'll set about exploring the aftermath. A semi-open environment littered with the decaying spoils of forgotten conflicts; a playground for an aging witch fulfilling an oath to an ancient coven. "We're playing with the tropes of the adventure genre and the traditional 'hero's journey', flipping them on their head through a new perspective," says Straley.
