Find out when Fe will be released, which platforms the game will support and watch the gameplay trailers.
Back in June 2016 EA announced a new initiative – EA Originals – which sought to support indie developers which had “unique, gorgeous, innovative and memorable” games.
Alongside the announcement, which was during EA Play, was the news that Fe – from Gothenburg-based Zoink – would be the first title to be released under the EA Originals brand.
There’s no firm date yet, but at Gamescom 2017 Zoink said that it would be out in early 2018. This was during the EA press conference: you can re-watch the live stream here.
Indie studio Zoink says that, at its heart, Fe is a personal narrative about our relationship with nature, the land, and its beings.
“It’s a wordless celebration of our longing to be one with world around us. It’s a story that reminds us that everything in this world is connected, living in a delicate balance that is constantly under threat. It’s a game full of discovery, conflict, and relationships.”
You play as a cub which wakes to find itself alone in a forest and you have to interact with other creatures. The graphics and gameplay mechanics are unusual, but beyond what you see in the two videos here, nothing else is really known about the game.
The Gamescom trailer’s description gives few extra clues to the gameplay: “climb, glide and dig your way through a dark Nordic forest and explore its living, breathing ecosystem filled with secrets, side quests and mystical creatures.”
It will be available on PS4, Nintendo Switch, Windows and Xbox One.
Here’s the original gameplay trailer shown during EA Play 2016.
