Revenant Hill was simply introduced — it comes from The Glory Society, which incorporates two Night time within the Woods co-creators, and has an identical artwork fashion. Sadly, it appears to be like prefer it may skip Xbox for now.
Introduced throughout the PlayStation showcase, Revenant Hill has thus far solely been confirmed for PS5, PS4, and Steam (though fortunately we noticed many video games additionally confirmed for Xbox), however a Night time In The Woods co-creator provides us hope that this can be a “nonpermanent” state of affairs.
Revenant Hill might maybe come to Xbox
Revenant Hill comes from The Glory Society, described as aiming to construct “an egalitarian office.” Together with different builders, the Glory Society crew contains two Night time within the Woods co-creators: Bethany Hockenberry and Scott Benson — each work as writers and narrative designers, whereas Benson additionally capabilities as artistic director and Hockenberry additionally works as researcher.
Over on Twitter, Benson replied to at least one fan asking about whether or not Revenant Hill is a everlasting or timed Sony unique to say, “nonpermanent,” later confirming that Xbox might “hypothetically” get the sport sooner or later.
As for the sport itself: Revenant Hill appears to be like very paying homage to Night time within the Woods, each with its artwork fashion and its important character. It is set in 1919 and sees Twigs the cat going to stay in a “moist log close to an deserted graveyard” after dropping his barn. “When the owl from the subsequent hill over begins demanding hire, Twigs should discover a technique to make ends meet, and issues simply get extra sophisticated from there,” says technical designer Coby West. “Develop crops to promote on the secret market or use in your personal functions. Put down roots. Run by the fields and the bushes. Watch the seasons move. Make pals who turn out to be neighbors who turn out to be household. Additionally make enemies. That’s unavoidable generally. Work out what the ghosts need. Host more and more bold events for witches and demons and different issues that don’t have correct names. Get tousled in a world within the midst of violent change. Construct a neighborhood by chance. Sq. dance with a possum. Eat mice.”
Hopefully, we’ll see Revenant Hill head our method in the future.
