Drinkbox Studios, the makers of popular fighters Guacamelee!, have a new game on the way. It’s called an action role-playing game Nobody is saving the world
In Nobody is saving the world, the world in question must be saved from a day of judgment called disaster. Although it shares a name and purpose (destroy everything) with the Calamity of Super Giant Bastion, this is less of an “anonymous force of all-devouring destruction” and more of an “invading army of monsters.” Nice and simple.
You are cast as a character called Nobody (get it?) Who encounters a magical wand, allowing you to transform into a variety of unlockable shapes. If you want to become a forest ranger, you can do that. A bodybuilder? That too. How about a horse? Yep!
From a top-down perspective, you explore an upper world and tackle procedurally generated dungeons. Drinkbox says the game won’t grind. Instead, you unlock forms, skills, progress, and the like by completing quests. Those quests can range from “break stuff” to “become a rat” to the highly presumptuous “cheer up a fellow rabbit lover.” (I am personally more loved by hares.)
Nobody is saving the world will be released later this year for Xbox consoles and PC. It will be available on Game Pass on both platforms from day one.
