August is usually a quiet month for video games, as it coincides with a vacation period, but this year is quite the opposite. From August to October, we won’t experience any peace, and major releases will be coming one after another, showing that there simply isn’t enough room for so many games that need to launch in preparation for the two major holiday campaigns: Black Friday and Christmas. And the next game to join this crazy race is Immortals of Aveum.
Ascendant Studios’ game has officially been declared gold, which means it’s now completed and ready to be sent for mass production. With just one week left until its launch, this is great news for the upcoming EA Originals game.
For those who are unfamiliar with this game, Immortals of Aveum is a new IP developed using Unreal Engine 5 that puts players in the shoes of Jack, a newly recruited mage of the Order of the Immortals. Immersed in an eternal cosmic war, Jack must uncover the secrets of Aveum’s past to secure its future. How? Well, in a universe that blends elements of fantasy and science fiction, in the only way possible in such cases: with FPS mechanics, but using different branches of magic instead of firearms.
EA Originals is an EA initiative to fund original and unique third-party projects for publication under its own label. This collaboration has resulted in games like Wild Hearts, Lost In Random, or It Takes Two.
Immortals of Aveum will be released on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X, Series S, and PC on August 22nd. This is the first game from Ascendant Studio, but considering that nearly all EA Originals games so far have been successful, this is one of those games that we’ll have to keep an eye on.
