And I encountered a few hordes of enemies. I solved some puzzles to open some doors.
And I went through a few different levels. The magic is what really intrigued me about "Immortals of Aveum." And so I got a little bit of hands on time with the game.Īnd I had one stream of magic, a blue stream. So there's a lot of political intrigue, a little Game of Thrones-esque, and then a huge story built around magic and a crumbling kingdom that you're trying to save. Instead, there are streams of magic, bright colored streams- blue, green, and red- that the protagonist uses to defeat hordes of enemies in this epic, high fantasy environment. It doesn't rely on traditional guns in any way. So the cool thing about "Immortals of Aveum" is it's a first-person magic shooter. There's also some pretty big acting talent behind this game with actors from like "Firefly" and "Never Have I Ever." And with the publishing power of EA, this game looks AAA, even though it is from an indie studio. There are about 100 people working at Ascendant Studios. So this is a game with a pretty large budget, it looks like, and a pretty large team behind it. And Bret describes the studio as a AAA indie. He's a AAA veteran known for being the creative director of "Dead Space" and also some "Call of Duties" right after that. "Immortals of Aveum" is the debut game from Ascendant Studios, which is a new indie studio founded by Bret Robbins. We'll be at Summer Game Fest all week, including the Xbox Showcase on June 11th and Ubisoft Forward on June 12th, so stay tuned for more first looks and impressions from the show. It’s heading to PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S and PC on July 20th, and I'm looking forward to checking out the full game then. The clarity of the cutscenes made it easier to get lost in the dialogue and the ravaged fantasy world of Aveum, even in a short period of time. Its cinematics were particularly impressive: The motion capture was smooth and the character models were finely detailed, with delicate eye markings and layers of gear. I played a demo of Immortals of Aveum at Summer Game Fest 2023, and it was gorgeous.
