PSYCHONAUTS 2 DEVELOPER UPDATE

The first game is one of the all-time cult hits in gaming history, and multiple attempts to launch the sequel have started and failed over the last decade. The game is all about using those powers with some acrobatic skills to explore the mental worlds of other characters – literally. We will control Razputin Aquato, a young Psychonaut-in-training with powerful psychic abilities: telekinesis, pyrokinesis and levitation. Psychonauts 2 is a third-person platform game that follows the steps of its predecessor. The video also contains some exclusive footage of the game so you better check it out. “We are excited to be working with them because they are from a development background just like us, and so they know where we’re coming from,” says Schaffer. With Dead by Daylight already in their catalog, they are also looking to publish Raid: World War II. Their titles as developer include Payday 2 and Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons.ĭouble Fine founder Tim Schafer appeared yesterday in a dev diary to confirm the partnership as well. In this deal, Starbreeze expands their list of published titles. On the other side, Double Fine will keep 100% the intellectual property relating to Psychonauts 2.
