Didn't know about that one. Thanks!

Thanks Emil!

Thanks Martijn!
Hadn't heard of Shardpunk - I'll give it a try!

I've been waiting for a good successor to XCOM forever and I know plenty of others who have as well. Apart from Chaos Gate: 40K and Phoenix Point I can't even think of any other games of that type. What do you think? Would you play a game like this?

I forgot to mention that this is from the Killzone: Shadowfall release party. A colleague had made these really cool Helghast goggles.

Including music for Horizon Zero Dawn written by @jorisdemanmusic.bsky.social!

Like Joris (and a lot of other people that I know who worked on KZ) I would love to be involved in a sequel. The nostalgia is strong on this one!

During those twenty(!) odd years I've experienced up close what a talented composer Joris is and he happens to be an incredibly nice guy to too. I'm lucky to have him on board on Heirs of Eternity.

It was the first time I worked with @jorisdemanmusic.bsky.social We ended up working together on basically the whole Killzone franchise and all the Horizon games too.

Absolutely adore the vibe ❤️

Needless to say Joris is an awesome composer and I'm incredibly excited about this. Can’t wait to hear what he’ll create for us!

A two-time Ivor Novello winner and BAFTA-nominated composer, Joris has 25 years of industry experience in games, TV, and film. He is best known for composing the iconic theme music for Sony Guerrilla’s Killzone and Horizon franchises, bringing worlds to life with his powerful and evocative scores.

Now the game is less about inhabiting a dark place and more about taking possession of a wondrous world full of mystery and adventure.

So Heirs of Eternity it is. I hope you like it!

Our original tagline was "dark fantasy", so it made sense. As a group we have been moving it towards a lighter tone however.
I guess I always wanted the tone to be hopeful, and now with Mario's colorful art style it definitely is. This is what I love about collaborating with talented people.

I have to admit that changing the name felt awkward at first, but now that I'm used to it I like Heirs of Eternity better. I think it reflects the world and the mood of the game better than the Dark Earth did.
