French video game production is not lacking in talent, and it’s not us with our AG French Direct who are going to prove you wrong. The little surprise of the day comes to us this time from Strasbourg with the very young studio emberswhich has just unveiled its very first game named Strayed Lights. A first trailer was released immediately to introduce us to this intriguing project, which has a soundtrack that should appeal to lovers of Journey orAbzu.
A bit of fantasy and fighting on the program
You will have understood this when you talk about the two games mentioned above, the French studio has surrounded itself with Austin Wintory to compose the different pieces of Strayed Lights. We can already hear his work with this first video, while waiting to listen to much more when the final game is released.
The title will take us into a colorful world full of dangers, with creatures overwhelmed by their emotions that promise to offer fights with disproportionate staging. It will be necessary to use the power of light to get rid of it, while exploring the different regions of this universe. Alexandre Arramonco-founder and creative director at Embers, presents the title as follows:
” Strayed Lights is an ode to resilience through the flow of its fights and its story. It is a dreamlike interpretation of life in connection with balance. You face giant creatures overwhelmed by an emotion they now personify, and you try to appease them and grow in the process. We intentionally chose not to put any text or dialogue into the game to let players create their own interpretation. ยป
Strayed Lights is currently scheduled to be released by the end of April, on PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series and Nintendo Switch. One more title to watch for lovers of challenge and beautiful landscapes.
