Looked even better than last time.
When it first debuted there was only a very small team working on the game. Since then, with a publisher behind them and having built a full studio, they have a lot more momentum and are making lots of progress.

This looks a lot better than the original reveal

It's like Dark Souls meets INSIDE meets Zelda. I flipping love it. Hope there is tons of exploration.

Nice trailer but the gameplay remains to be seen. Wouldn't want a Souls clone or co-op crafting roque-like.

This looks so good. A beautiful indie take on Dark Souls.

Do you have a video?
Did they mention anything on the scale of the game? Like, is there a focus on open exploration? Or is it more souls corridor like?
Are you allowed to say?

The cloth animation was so good I wasn't sure whether it was real-time. I still am not.
Yes PC

Seems that way. The developer just said it's console exclusive to Xbox on the YouTube E3 stream.

Definitely doesn't make things up as he goes along.
I like that the logo subtlety has two people in it... clever

Nice to see Ashen again. It's been several years since it was first shown. Didn't see a release date, though. Did anyone see?
Monday release? Seems weird. Still a long way off though

tons of other games to play in the meantime. I'm already overwhelmed from the first half of 2017

Hoping it would release this year but that's ok. Looks like it'll be worth the wait.

Yeah, hoping it would come sooner, but the game looks great, and at least it has a date.
Perfect time. You dont want this in Q4.

Seems it will be souls multiplayer (crap imo) style
I 'm still looking for a souls game where you can easily play (and progress) with your friend (without doing each area 2 times and not play togther somewhere certain conditions are met)
Also liking help (with coop or advice) must not mean you are opened to be invaded by pvp build or overleveled player....
this kind of game need an pvp / pve character flag imo.

Someone gave it a nickname, Budget Souls.
I think the game looks cool though.

I thought it looked great - glad to see it's coming to PS4, as I will eventually pick it up.
It definitely was full exclusive for a time - my guess would be that it hit development issues and MS pulled funding, and Annapurna agreed to publish it on the proviso that it was only a timed exclusive. Similar to what they did with Edith Finch, I guess, although going by the UK IPO Sony still appears to own the trademark on that one so I'd guess it's not coming to Xbone.

What irks me is the lack of weight the characters possess, the feet seem to just float across the surface. Otherwise it looks fantastic visually.

It is developed by Aurora44 and published by Annapurna Interactive.
luckily its not Win10Store exclusive on PC, steampage just went live

Yep, there's some off-screen videos from the show floor of it floating around and that trailer is definitely created from gameplay. It looks really good.
