Oceanhorn 2: Knights of the Lost Realm - Entwicklung bestätigt
In wenigen Tagen veröffentlicht das schwedische Entwicklerstudio Cornfox & Bros. Oceanhorn: Monster of Uncharted Seas für die PlayStation 4 und Xbox One. Heute hat man nun die Entwicklung das Nachfolgers Oceanhorn 2: Knights of the Lost Realm bestätigt, an dem man seit ca. einem Jahr arbeitet. Die Ankündigung wird begleitet durch den "Title Theme"-Trailer sowie ersten Screenshots. Derzeit arbeitet ein Core-Team von fünf Leuten an der Umsetzung des Spiels, das in einer anderen Zeitlinie spielt und uns daher auch in die Rolle eines anderen Helden schlüpfen lässt. Nach dem Erfolg des ersten Teils soll die Fortsetzung nun größer werden und den "JRPG Traum" der Entwickler wahr werden lassen. Weitere Infos sollen in den kommenden Monaten folgen.
The boy has grown up? That’s right! But he is a different boy altogether! Oceanhorn 2: Knights of the Lost Realm is set in another time period on the Oceanhorn timeline. The game has a new Hero, a boy who has been trained to become a Knight of Arcadia.
Oceanhorn 2 will be built upon the same elements that were the heart and soul of the first Oceanhorn game: exploring a colorful world, a deep backstory with secrets and twists, amazing music, and most importantly – classic Action RPG gameplay with items, puzzles, battles, and badass bosses!
The game is played from a third person camera angle that will take players right into the heat of action and allows them to explore even the smallest details of Arcadia. Our battle system consists of sword fighting, utilizing powerful spells and finding creative ways to use various items that Hero discovers on his travels.
One of the key items in the game is the Caster, a gun that shoots magical projectiles! It will have many uses on the player’s adventure, from puzzle solving to luring enemies and casting directed spells.
Oceanhorn 2 will also feature a traversable and vast world map that consists of fields, forests, mountains, and water. It works as a hub between levels, dungeons and towns, much like in many of the classic JRPGs. Oceanhorn 2 is an opportunity to create something new from the strong background that we established with our previous game. In Oceanhorn 2, we want to emphasize the elements that people loved and create something new and brave on that foundation.
For us, Oceanhorn 2 is the fulfillment of a JRPG dream. It is a dream of running down green fields with the warmth of the sun on your face. It is a dream of learning the secrets of ancient ruins despite the danger. It is also a dream of finding yourself looking at beautiful mountains on the horizon and imagining what’s beyond them. It will be an amazing journey ahead of us and we hope that you will join us on that journey!
