Assemble Entertainment and developers littleknightgames have announced Mira and the Legend of the Djinns, a metroidvania style game that brings you into a world illustrated through vivid Mediterranean-inspired pixel artwork and a soundtrack to match, check out the announcement trailer below.

Drawing deep inspiration from Moroccan and Amazigh culture, language, and spiritual traditions, MIRA and the Legend of the Djinns is an adventure that tells the tale of Yuba, an avid treasure hunter, and a mysterious Djinn named Mira, the first Djinn discovered in generations. The two journey together across the devastated world of Fallen Amazgesh, a world of ruins, to uncover her lost memories, and in turn, what happened to her land and its people. To this end, Yuba and Mira agree to form a spiritual Bond, something no human has done outside of fabled legends.

Mira and Yuba traverse the vast expanse of the Desert Ocean, discovering new friends and vicious foes along the way. Together, the pair will track down priceless artefacts, explore dangerous ruins, battle against mutated creatures and corrupted spirits, and come face to face with the very cause of the cataclysm that destroyed Mira’s world and conceived Yuba’s.

The game does not have a set release date yet, but it is coming to PC sometime in 2023.
