State of Play saw the debut trailer for Arise, a gorgeous-looking adventure game set in a beautiful fantasy world from developer Piccolo.
We got to see a fairly extensive look at the game’s pretty art-style and its adventure gameplay. From what we can tell, it looks as though you’ll be undertaking some sort of pilgrimage through the afterlife, which is represented as a beautiful but sometimes harsh and eerie wilderness.
It rather reminded us of adventure games like Journey.
A quick bit of detective work yields a job posting from the developer was back in 2017, who stated at the time that their project “features a very personal style similar to the game RIME and Ghibli films.” They were employees with “artistic sensibility, not just technical prowess.”
You can check out the trailer for yourself below:
Other games shown during State of Play include Call of Duty: Modern Warfare, Batman, and Humanity.
