Tequila Works have announced that they are collaborating with two new publishers in order to bring their long-gestating project, RiME, to fruition. Grey Box and Six Foot are the newcomers to the party and all three plan to bring the hotly anticipated puzzle adventure title to players sometime in 2017.
RiME follows a young boy who washes up on a mysterious island after being shipwrecked during a raging storm. According to their press release, Tequila Works aims to offer gamers a subtle narrative featuring fantastic cel-shaded artwork and a sweeping soundtrack.
What is most interesting about the announcement is that it appears RiME may no longer be exclusive to PlayStation 4. Tequila Works originally teamed up with Sony to make the title but earlier this year, split with them and reacquired sole rights to the game. The wording of the press release specifically mentions “platform availability” and the addition of new publishers possibly suggests that we may see RiME on other consoles.
Look for more details in early 2017. In the meantime, pay a visit to Tequila Works for some screens and a beautiful trailer from GamesCom 2014.
