Releasing several games over his time in the industry – including Rez Infinite, Child of Eden, and 2018’s Tetris Effect – Enhance CEO Tetsuya Mizuguchi has long been an innovative name in the world of video games. It seems the esteemed developer will be working on a new project set to debut on next-generation platforms in the years to come, with Mizuguchi announcing the existence of the untitled project during an interview with Famitsu magazine.
Speaking on what players can expect from the game, the developer revealed it won’t stray too far from what Mizuguchi has worked on previously, referring to it as a multiplayer “synesthesia experience.” Synesthesia is the word used to describe the stimulation of the senses, and according to the CEO, the game will aim to capitalize on that by “visualizing music and sound into tactile sensations.”
Better yet, it seems players have already had something of a glimpse into the tone and style of the title, with the game designer claiming that a level from Rez Infinite acted as something of a prologue to the upcoming release. The level is known as Area X and was one of the biggest new additions added to Rez in its 2016 remaster. The project will also look to utilize state of the art sound, with Mizuguchi claiming he wants to move past stereo audio and move onto 3D audio. “Increasing the particle size and resolution of everything… will greatly shake or change the experience itself,” he claims, discussing how his next game will look to up audio resolution.
It seems this expansion of Area X is one of a few games Mizuguchi and his team over at Enhance want to make going forward, citing that the next generation has made the team consider multiple “projects.” Fans of the developer’s work will likely have a lot to look forward to, especially with the PlayStation 5’s Tempest Audio feeling like an incredibly important asset to Enhance’s next major project.
Of course, the studio has worked on a variety of well-received games in previous years, including 2018’s Tetris Effect, which brought the game back to life with Enhance’s seminal flair. Since it launched, it has been lorded for being a modern take on the formula with a ton of style and the same, addictive gameplay that made Tetris a video game icon. It was eventually ported to VR and, more recently, returned with multiplayer in Tetris Effect: Connected. Whatever Mizuguchi’s next project turns out to be, it’s sure to bring in an array of fans from his years crafting stylish gaming classics.
Enhance’s next project is currently in development.
