Yellow Brick Games has proudly announced its first game, Eternal Strands. This new action-adventure game promises a unique experience and is set for a 2025 release. It’s currently available on Steam, PS5, and Xbox Series X/S. Mike Laidlaw, the brains behind the Dragon Age series, co-founded Yellow Brick Games and brought his AAA game-making experience to this venture alongside other Ubisoft veterans.
Eternal Strands boasts a groundbreaking gameplay interaction system. This system brings life to the game with its real-time destruction and weather dynamics. You will step into the shoes of Brynn, a Weaver on a mission to save her cultural heritage by unraveling the Enclave’s secrets. This adventure includes battling colossal creatures called Arks and using a mix of magic and weaponry to fend off various foes.
The game results from hard work by a 68-person team utilizing Unreal Engine 5. Initially set to be published by Take-Two’s Private Division, Yellow Brick Games has decided to self-publish. Laidlaw expressed his enthusiasm for Eternal Strands, aiming to offer an adventure filled with fun, innovation, and the opportunity for players to explore a new, responsive world.
This game marks a significant departure from Laidlaw’s previous works, focusing on player freedom and interaction within a dynamically reacting world. With its promising features, Eternal Strands is shaping up to be a must-watch for gaming enthusiasts looking forward to 2025.
