Ex-Grand Theft Auto producer Leslie Benzies’ studio Build a Rocket Boy has released the first teaser for “MindsEye,” an episodic AAA sci-fi narrative game playable within the studio’s metaverse-like “Everywhere” title. The teaser follows the likely protagonist as he struggles to handle an embedded augmented-reality system that seems to have a will of its own.

Watch the MindsEye teaser below:

In the seven years since Rockstar North president and Grand Theft Auto producer Leslie Benzies left the company on poor terms, precious few details have come out about his upcoming projects. Last year at gamescom 2022, his studio Build a Rocket Boy debuted the first teaser for Everywhere, a new Fortnite-meets-Roblox title driven by user-created mini-games crafted through the game’s powerful creation tools. However, the studio’s showpiece is not this pioneering title; “MindsEye,” an episodic AAA performance-captured game within Everywhere, has that honor instead.

Benzies intends for MindsEye to tell a science-fiction-inspired story across different time periods and parts of the universe, with an overarching plot unifying the episodes’ otherwise-independent storylines. The plan is to offer Everywhere as a publicly playable experience sometime later in 2023. For now, fans can register at the game’s website to receive further details, and stay tuned here at MP1st for all upcoming news and announcements.
