Ever play a game set in a world so intriguing and enjoyable you wish there were other games, even of a different genre, that took place in the same setting? <\/p>\n

Eremite Games, the studio that created roguelike city builder Against the Storm, has announced just that. “There\u2019s something we\u2019ve been dying to tell you,” the studio said on Steam<\/a>: it’s been working on a new game that is “slowly taking shape as a survival game set in the Against the Storm universe.”<\/p>\n

Even better, it looks like it might be co-op. As part of a dev diary, the studio released a short in-engine clip of the new game, though asked that fans “please keep your expectations very modest. The project is still in its earliest phase, full of placeholders, and nearly everything you see is subject (and likely) to change.”<\/p>\n

There’s not a lot to see in the clip: a robed figure carrying a rifle strides through a gloomy, rainy night, and stops outside a small dwelling that looks for all the world like a building you’d see in Against the Storm. A moment later, a second figure steps into frame, which could suggest a co-op experience. See for yourself:<\/p>\n
