It has been almost two years since the Microsoft and Rare Everwild title was presented for the first time, showing part of its world and ecosystem, which generated a lot of interest among gamers for the artistic style and potential story that it could have. Nevertheless, little and nothing has been known in recent years about the development of the game, that added to leadership changes in the team, reports and rumors have suggested that the title would have been rebooted.
Through Kinda funnyXbox Game Studios Director Matt Booty commented on this topic that came up from a question. While the game has gone through several major decision points throughout its development (apparently 5 years), Booty clarified that these reports and rumors were “a little more extreme.” about what’s really going on with Everwild right now.
Reports of Everwild’s reboot are ‘a bit extreme’
Microsoft still has an interest in creating gaming experiences like Sony’s, says Matt Booty
When specifically asked about the reports, Booty commented and detailed the following (translated): “When you hear a word like ‘reboot’ and maybe ‘restructure’, I’ll just say they are a bit more extreme than what actually happens with a game coming to life. Mark Turmell used to say that a game makes thousands of little decisions at once. That every day you are making hundreds of small decisions and that at the end of the time you work on the game, they all add up. And I think that’s where the Everwild team is at right now. “ Furthermore, he added that “We have shown a glimpse of a world, you have seen the artistic style that the team has, but they want to do it well … it is natural for a team to go through some of that process”, according to account Gamingbolt.
While Booty’s statements are clear that there has not been a reboot as such, if you have suggested that the team behind Everwild have had development difficulties, since they have had to make many small decisions to move forward and give a clear direction to the title. Reports say that Everwild will not be released before 2023 or 2024, and as the panorama is being seen, everything indicates that those will be the dates for the premiere of this new world by Microsoft and Rare.
