“We will never stop developing for high-end platforms such as PS5.” said Square Enix about Project Athia.

Project Athia, this “thrilling other-worldly adventure” announced in June, is being made by Luminous Productions for the PlayStation 5 and PC. The game will be open-world, at least Yosuke Matsuda, president of Square Enix and game director, said so.

“The game Project Athia (title tentative), which we will release for PS5, is an open-world style game in which users can freely move around the game world,” Matsuda told Weekly Toyo Keizai Plus.

“PS5 dramatically improves video technology, such as with the implementation of light-reflecting ‘ray-tracing’ technology. Compared to what you see on PC, it is nearly identical. By utilizing these special traits, we’re able to create incredibly precise imagery. We still plan on developing well-balanced games tailored to a platform’s traits, including smartphone and cloud-based games, but we will never stop developing for high-end platforms such as PS5. Because these things are packed with the best technology.”

Project Athia does not currently have a release date.
