EA Unveils Sea of Solitude for PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One

We have passion projects such Unravel Two, which has certainly my eye, as it is an effort filled with cooperative gameplay, gorgeous visuals and a goosebump-inducing soundtrack. And then there is Sea of Solitude, a story that aims to thrust you into the realm of darkness.

Check out the trailer here.



Okay, so I originally believed this to be a Sony-exclusive game, just by watching this. In fact, it definitely gives off vibes - in terms of art direction, anyway - of Gravity Rush/Daze. Anyway, this is all about water... and the concept of loneliness. One to look forward to, my friends.

Here's the official description from EA:

"When humans get too lonely, they turn into monsters. That's what happened to Kay. But she's not alone - this ocean is full of creatures just like her. Finding them may be the key to changing her back.

Sea of Solitude is an upcoming third-person exploration game from Jo-Mei Games. Join Kay as she navigates the waters of heartache, empathy, and hope."

I like this, point blank. A game that examines the weaknesses of people - depression, loneliness, and anxiety in particular - in a metaphorical and relatable sense is always welcome at my library. Sea of Solitude will launch for the PC, Xbox One, and PlayStation 4 in early 2019.
