As August ramps up, extra items within the Gamescom puzzle are falling into place. Subnautica and Pure Choice creator Unknown Worlds has already locked in the reveal of its subsequent sport — a turn-based sci-fi technique sport that’s part of a “new IP.”

We’ll study extra about this technique sport through the Geoff Keighley-hosted Gamescom: Opening Night time Dwell streaming showcase on August 23 at 11:00 a.m. Pacific.

Based on Krafton, Inc., “Unknown Worlds co-founder and sport director, Charlie Cleveland, will formally reveal a brand new IP set in a sci-fi world that options imaginative turn-based gameplay. Hanging Distance Studios’ CEO Glen Schofield will even take the stage at Opening Night time Dwell to share a brand new have a look at The Callisto Protocol, the upcoming next-generation survival horror sport that’s set to launch on Dec. 2, 2022.”

“So excited to lastly share what I’ve been obsessive about, and dealing on daily, for fairly just a few years,” tweeted Cleveland. “OBSESSED.”

I truthfully preserve forgetting that Krafton owns Unknown Worlds, however this reveal ought to be a agency reminder. Beforehand, the pair described the brand new sport as “genre-defining” and instructed it could have an Early Entry launch; par for the course for this workforce.

Unknown Worlds has additionally been hiring for extra Subnautica, so don’t sweat it

What in regards to the subsequent Subnautica? I’m all riled up fascinated by the chances.

In fact, it could’t be unsettling the entire time — calmer, quieter breaks should be there too. There are plenty of instructions the story can go from right here.

Unknown Worlds has fairly a little bit of goodwill to spare, so whether or not it’s this new sci-fi technique title or one other Subnautica, they’ve obtained our consideration. See you at Gamescom?
