During Today’s Xbox Partner Preview, 11 Bit Studios announced yet another new title coming in 2024, Creatures of Ava.
Partnering with Studios Inverge and Chibig to help co-develop the game, this whimsical creature-saving game looks to be one wild and beautiful ride. Here is a little about the game and its main protagonist:
“Your hero is Vic, a 22-year-old adventurer navigating an immersive expedition alongside researcher, Tabitha. Together, you confront the recurring infection—referred to as “the withering” by the local population known as the Naam—threatening Ava’s inhabitants. The gameplay encourages curiosity-driven exploration of its distinct ecosystems, such as the colorful Nari jungle or mysterious Mâruba swamp, creating an interconnected world.”
“Creatures of Ava is a unique creature-saver game that invites you to explore a world teeming with wild beings. These once peaceful creatures now succumb to an unknown infection, compelling them to behave aggressively. Once healed, they form a unique bond that allows you to use their skills for traversing the planet and solving environmental challenges. With non-aggressive combat mechanics designed for healing rather than defeating, and indigenous Flute melodies that you play to tame creatures, the game further emphasizes the creature-saver nature of the experience.”
I don’t know about you, but that seems like a great exploration action adventure that anyone can jump right in and play! It was also announced that the game will be released on Xbox Game Pass on launch day for all to enjoy!
