How did I not learn about Fe? It’s a beautiful action-adventure kind factor that’s instantly turn into one of many video games I’m most wanting ahead to this yr. Fortunately, I don’t have lengthy to attend: EA have introduced a launch date of February 16th.
There’s some new footage under on this snippet from the Nintendo Direct Mini presentation thingamy, so I’m afraid you’ll need to put up with the voice-over man wittering about Joy-Con movement controls. It’s price it although, as a result of he’s speaking about utilizing them to sing in tune with the lovely critters you’ll meet.
Fe has you climbing, gliding and digging via a Nordic forest, making mates with mystical animals in what the official blurb calls a “living, breathing ecosystem”. Befriending these animals (and vegetation!) provides you talents that allow you to discover new areas, which I suppose makes it just a little bit Metroidvania-y.
I believe this trailer from Gamescom final yr does a fair higher job at promoting the sport, although I’m not offered on the voice performing. I’ve observed I could be fairly delicate to voice performing that sounds even barely off, besides I saved getting little goosebump shivers during from when that cub begins howling.
Here’s the full song used in that, in case you dug it as a lot as I did.
Fe would be the first sport to come back out of EA Originals, a programme that helps fund and publish indie video games. EA have performed related issues earlier than, most lately with Unravel, however now it has a reputation to sign that that is A Cool Thing they’re doing, yeah?
They’re additionally publishing Sea of Solitude in addition to A Way Out, the co-op solely jail break sport from the devs of Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons.
For us UK people, the Origin store says it’ll really unlock at 11pm on February 15th. It’ll value £17.99.
