New Square Enix Game is Coming

For fans of Square Enix, the second part of Final Fantasy VII Remake is not yet finished and hasn't been announced yet, but they do have a new game in development with Luminous Productions dubbed as Project Athia.

The teaser trailer was shown during the PS5 event.

In a blog post, Project Athia's director, Takeshi Aramaki, wrote that the team behind it aims to "create completely new and fresh gaming experiences that fuse together the latest technologies with art" and that they were able to achieve that with PS5.

"Project Athia will take you on a thrilling other-worldly adventure - it is going to be action-packed and at times twisted, tempestuous, and forbidding," Takeshi wrote. "It is a journey that we want to feel as much yours as it is our protagonists."

Not much has been said about the new game, but the director described it as "filled with beauty and dismay."

The Final Worlds of Assassination Title

Meanwhile, fans of the action stealth Hitman series from IO Interactive will get to play Agent 47 once again in his "most intimate and professional contract" ever on Hitman 3.

The game will bring players to different places like Dubai, to complete the contract.

The charm of Hitman 3 is that it allows you to have freedom in how you take down the targets, such as creating "accidents," blending in with the crowd, or using disguises to accomplish your goal.

Besides PS5, the game will also be released on PS4, Xbox Series X, and on PC.
