Project Athia, a brand-new game from Luminous Productions (the Square Enix studio behind Final Fantasy XV), was unveiled during Sony’s big PlayStation 5 presentation today.
Project Athia appears to be an adventure set in a large fantasy world. It stars a woman on a strange planet that isn’t her own, performing super-human leaps between rocky peaks with acrobatic flair. The heroine also has access to magic, as we see her summon a tangle of roots to fight a group of wolf-like creatures.

Though the trailer was brief, the fiction behind this game is more expansive. Gary Whitta, one of the co-writers of Rogue One and the host of Animal Talking, tweeted that he led a group of writers to build this universe:
Really proud to reveal that I led a crack team of A-list writers from the worlds of film, tv, games, and fantasy literature who helped create this immense new universe for @SquareEnix. Can't wait for you to see and learn more. Stay tuned. #ProjectAthia https://t.co/tR1ObQEjGE
