In association with Wizards of the Coast, the owner of the D&D IP, Gameloft Montreal, the studio behind Disney Dreamlight Valley and LEGO Star Wars: Castaways, has disclosed that it is developing a new Dungeons and Dragons life-simulation survival action RPG hybrid.
The game is set in the Forgotten Realms, the same D&D setting as Baldur's Gate series, and the setting for a plethora of other games, including 2013's Neverwinter .
Game creator Ed Greenwood created the Forgotten Realms, which are said to be home to a variety of monsters and paranormal activities. As such, we have no idea what to expect from the as-yet-unnamed game when it launches.
As of right now, Gameloft's Instagram post offers the following information about the game: "Players can expect an adventure where the rich lore of this legendary franchise meets real-time survival in a unique campaign of resilience, camaraderie, and danger at nearly every turn." However, there is currently no set release date or additional information available. Keep checking back!
"We are all big fans of D&D and are already hard at work bringing our concept to life, including growing our team," said Lee Kaburis, Executive Producer at Gameloft Montreal. "We look forward to sharing more details in the future."
"Given their impressive record building incredible new experiences with major IPs combined with their passion for D&D and vision for this game, we are confident they will create an experience that will delight fans worldwide," says Eugene Evans, SVP of Digital Strategy and Licensing at Wizards of the Coast, regarding Gameloft.
The Instagram post claims that Gameloft is actively hiring for the project as well.
