Hello Games announced their next project, Light No Fire, at The Game Awards last week. Today, in a blog post on Steam, they revealed more details about what to expect from the upcoming open-world fantasy survival game and expressed gratitude for the years of support behind No Man’s Sky.
First things first, you can watch the game’s reveal trailer here:
Seemingly following in the formula of No Man’s Sky, Light No Fire trades out a procedurally generated universe for a single earth that Hello Games claims is larger than our own. This planet is touted as a “truly open world” that contains miles-tall mountains and islands the size of countries.
Here are some more details from the Steam blog post:
Light No Fire is a game about adventure, building, survival, and exploration together. Set on a fantasy planet the size of Earth, it brings the depth of a role playing game to the freedom of a survival sandbox.
A Multiplayer Earth
Carve a life together. Meet players from across the globe, build a life, explore, and survive together. Construct persistent buildings and communities, or strike out alone to discover the world for others.
A Procedural Earth
A truly open world, with no boundaries at a scale never attempted before. A massively varied and dense planet filled with immersive biomes, unique enemies and valuable resources to discover.
A Fantasy Earth
Light No Fire presents you with an ancient earth to uncover. One where you’re not the hero. Thick with lore, mystery and a constant fight for survival. Inspired by the adventure, charm and imagination that we love from classic fantasy.
An Unexplored Earth
Every mountain can be climbed, and below them lie endless vistas, oceans and continents perhaps no others have seen. Who will climb the tallest mountains, who will find the deepest sea? Set sail across vast oceans and rivers, ride wild beasts through fantastical landscapes, fly dragons over undiscovered landscapes.
The team also mentioned that next year will be a big year for No Man’s Sky with “lots of updates.” The game still receives updates regularly, the latest of which you can read about here.
Light No Fire currently has no release date. We’ll be sure to let our readers know when we get more information.
