A new course for FAR: Changing Tides has it setting sail in 2022
Frontier and developer Okomotive have released two new trailer for FAR Changing Tides, the next title in the series, with one showing off some features of the game and the second providing a deeper look at the gameplay, complete with commentary, check them both out.
Building on the meditative experience of FAR: Lone Sails, the upcoming companion title, FAR: Changing Tides today revealed an added verticality to the series. Players can dive beneath the waves and explore the flooded civilization that was once protagonist Toe’s home, as well as other original features new to the FAR universe.
Okomotive Lead Designer and Co-Founder, Don Schmocker, said, “Adding a submersible feature to the FAR universe felt like a natural progression for the series, allowing players to explore the ruins beneath, instead of just sailing above them. It added an emotional depth that the desolate wastelands of Lone Sails had and a new element to some of our puzzles, as well as encouraging players to engage with their vehicle in a deeper and more satisfying way. As a studio, we want to keep challenging ourselves while looking at new ways to excite players. Changing Tides is longer than Lone Sails, with more puzzles to solve, upgrades to earn and a mystery to unravel, we wanted something to set the two games apart while retaining the iconic elements; post-apocalyptic setting, painterly art style, dynamic soundtrack and a unique vehicle.”
The game is coming in early 2022 for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, Switch, PC via Steam and Epic, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One
