First announced during Microsoft’s Inside Xbox event in 2019, the game’s “unique and unforgettable experiences” continue to confound explanation, but its evocative aesthetic is definitely a choice.
According to last night’s Xbox Games Showcase presentation, Everwild casts you as an Eternal, a sort of fantasy eco-activist who can “sense and feel how magic flows through nature and connects every living thing” and is probably also a vegan. I mean, I don’t think I could eat a deer-ferret with petal antlers either. Maybe with some kind of cloud berry compote? Dunno.
The game is in development for Xbox Series X and PC, but no launch date has been confirmed for the moment.
