Frontier Foundry unveils FAR: Changing Tides - a second
adventure in Okomotive's post-apocalyptic world
Frontier Foundry, the games label of Frontier Developments plc
(AIM: FDEV, 'Frontier', the 'Group' or the 'Company') , announces
its publishing partnership with Swiss based development team,
Okomotive, on their next title, FAR: Changing Tides. The game was
unveiled at the PC Gaming Show on 13 June 2021 and is currently due
for release in late calendar 2021 on Xbox Series X/S, PlayStation
5, Xbox One, PlayStation 4, Switch, Steam and Epic Store.
Swapping sand dunes for sea waves, FAR: Changing Tides expands
on the inhospitable world created by developers, Okomotive, in
their multi award-winning debut title, FAR: Lone Sails. Players
control Toe, a hero trapped in a drowned landscape with little
chance of survival. Finding an abandoned ship, the journey to
safety will take players across the horizon in a desperate bid for
freedom as Toe seeks answers about what happened to their home.
Okomotive Lead Designer and Co-Founder, Don Schmocker, said,
"The reception to FAR: Lone Sails was humbling, to know that people
felt the same passion as we do about that world inspired us to
continue to build on it with Changing Tides. We knew we wanted to
tell a different, but complimentary tale, one which would be
familiar to fans but fresh and exciting."
With the same captivating art style, meditative side scrolling
gameplay and haunting soundtrack from composer Joel Schoch as FAR:
Lone Sails, the next entry into the world created by Okomotive will
present fans with a fresh experience as they sail the high seas and
scour the deepest ocean floors, later this year.
Frontier's Head of Publishing, Zac Antonaci, said, "Signing
Okomotive to Foundry was a wonderful moment for the team here as
there is a huge amount of love for FAR: Lone Sails in the studio.
What Don and the rest of the developers have created with Changing
Tides is a fantastic continuation of their brand and we're
delighted to be involved in bringing this to fans, leveraging
Frontier's legacy as a developer and publisher."
