Sci-fi Fantasy Adventure Elex Launches Tomorrow on PS4

Science-Fantasy in a post-apocalyptic world – a mix of genres, a curse or a blessing?

In celebration of tomorrow’s PS4 release of Elex – and since the final days of a project always make us a little emotional – we thought we’d look back at the early days of the project and give you a little insight into the thoughts and ideas that went into the design of Piranha Bytes’ biggest project to date.

When we started the project, before we even thought about story, characters or game mechanics, we asked ourselves two questions: What are the expectations for a new Piranha Bytes game of fans of our previous game trilogies – Gothic and Risen – and what are our own expectations? What do we want to work on, and how can we surprise ourselves and the gaming world? We quickly came to the conclusion that we have to go back to our roots and make a huge, seamless game world that invites players to explore for dozens, or even hundreds, of hours.
