The second of Amazon Game Studios new announcements is
New World, an MMO
sandbox game. This doesn't yet have a website, but it already has an
Amazon listing with a teaser
image. In a sign of our times, the unreleased game already shows two reviews, in
spite of a note saying it's not eligible for review. Here's how this is
described:
New World is a massively multiplayer, open-ended sandbox game
that allows players to carve out their own destiny with other players in a
living, cursed land. Players decide how to play, what to do, and whom to work
with--or against--in an evolving world that transforms with seasons, weather,
and time of day. Players can band together to reclaim monster-haunted wilds and
build thriving civilizations, or strike out alone, surviving in the face of
supernatural terrors and murderous player bandits. With emergent gameplay and
rich social features, including deep Twitch integration with broadcaster-led
events, achievements, and rewards, the only limit in the New World is a player’s
ambition.
