Seeker Games, a new indie studio helmed by veteran developers from Blizzard Entertainment, Maxis, Riot Games, and Sony Online Entertainment, has announced its debut project, titled KinForge. These folks have only worked on some of the biggest and most popular game franchises on the planet, such as Diablo, Dragon Age, EverQuest, League of Legends, Overwatch, Valorant, and World of Warcraft.
KinForge is a cooperative, creature-collecting action-RPG where nature has been corrupted by greedy corporations that have found Pokemon-like creatures known as Elementals powering the world. The player characters can bond with these Elementals as companions and use their powers to fight back against the corpos.
Prior to each mission, you will choose which Elemantals to bond with at your home base – the Preserve – which determines which abilities you must fight with. The Preserve is also where you will reincarnate downed Elementals, forge new abilities, and team up with other players between procedurally generated missions.
It looks like a unique blend of several genres, and I’m really digging the art style. KinForge is coming to PC first, and potentially consoles after that, though no release date has been announced. Check out the reveal trailer below:
