Garvin and Mumbauer, who has also participated in the process of creating characters such as Nathan Drake (Uncharted) Joel and Ellie (The Last of Us) Y Deacon St John (Days Gone), have announced their first game: Ashfall, under the banner of the new studio Liithos.

Hedera defines Ashfall as a survival game in a world “marked by global warming, the Pacific Ring of Fire, mysterious and disruptive energy fields and enclaves of war”.

The title will start as a connected single-player adventure that will evolve into a “transmedia and cinematic” multiplayer world ruled by the confrontation between player and player (PvP) and between the player and his environment (PvE).
