Seeing in a whole new light
Scavengers Studio’s life-recording adventure gameSeasonis almost ready to set off.Season: A letter to the futurewill launch on May 24, 2025 for PlayStation 4, PS5, and PC via Steam and Epic.
The project will go live digitally on January 31 for $24.99, but before then, a demo will be available on Steam and PS5 until December 12.
Season: A letter to the futurefollows a young woman on a journey across the world. With trusty bike and recording equipment in tow, the goal is to catalog and record the world as it is now, before it all goes away in a coming cataclysm.
Different recording tools offer different ways to capture things. Whether it’s a journal or a recording, or even just some memories, it’s all a set of markers, remembering the world before it goes away.
A game for every season
This new game from Scavengers, the team behind battle royaleThe Darwin Project, is certainly a bit different. It’s a serene adventure about examining the world around you, rather than an explosive shooter. Its trailers so far have emphasized a beautiful, somber journey in store.
Scavengers was at the center ofsome allegations in early 2021, including accusations of high-level studio runners mistreating their employees. Following the report, Scavengersaddressed the claims and made an updatelater on in the year, saying the team has worked to investigate and address the issues.
With a release right around the corner, I’m a bit keen to see what Scavengers has put together forSeason. Tonight is The Game Awards 2022, a show sure to be full of blasts, explosions, and combat. So something a bit more meditative and mindful to balance all that out, right at the start of the new year? That sounds pretty nice.
