The former Rockstar producer Leslie Benzies is currently working with his new studio on a game called “Everywhere”. Now, more information about the project has surfaced.
What kind of game is it? The title “Everywhere” made headlines some time ago when Leslie Benzies raised $42 million to fund the project with his new studio “Build a Rocket Boy Games”.
At that time, Everywhere was announced as a “massive open-world game” that aims to draw inspiration from all around and offer real freedom. However, not much was known.
Now, a few new details have emerged.
“Everywhere” is the first project of his new company “Build a Rocket Boy Games”, which also involves several former GTA employees.
Open World, Multiplayer, and Story are included
This is now known: In an investor portfolio from Galaxy Interactive, there is a brief overview of “Everywhere”, which outlines what kind of game we can expect.
Everywhere is expected to be a AAA game with an open world, offering a multiplayer experience along with a multi-level, epic story.
Players are also expected to take on a creative role. The concept talks about a “Virtual Sandbox” where players can create their own worlds. Additionally, social and streaming elements will be incorporated.
The term “Real-life Ready Player One” is also mentioned.
What is Ready Player One? Ready Player One is a film from 2018 that, in turn, is based on the science fiction novel of the same name from 2011. The story focuses on the so-called “Oasis”, an online world where players can essentially be whatever they want.
They log in there via virtual reality and escape completely into this world, which is full of missions and challenges, from car racing to full-blown shooters. People take on an avatar of their choice – in the film, the concept allowed for many cameo appearances from the gaming world and other pop culture.
What does this mean for the game? The concept of the Oasis would align with the great freedom of “Everywhere” and the aspect of drawing inspiration from all around.
Additionally, the game’s website mentions that a war between good and evil exists, everything is changing, and a new world is approaching, which players will help shape.
“You as players are a crucial part of the founding, growth, and future of EVERYWHERE,” it says. “Our shared journey begins when you register for EVERYWHERE. Over time, through the challenges on the website and in the game, your player will evolve and your place in EVERYWHERE will become clear.”
What exactly is behind it and when the game will be released – that is still open.
