Rare hasn’t discussed Everwild much yet because it’s still exploring how the title’s core themes will translate into gameplay, according to studio head Craig Duncan.

“We learned a lot from Sea of Thieves,” he said. “At its heart, we love the idea of Sea of Thieves [and] players creating stories together. I think with Everwild, Louise [O’Connor] and her leadership team are really passionate about giving players a world that they can just lose themselves in — you know, a lot of nature feels magical.


“So the notion of, ‘What does it mean to nurture a world? What does it mean to be in nature?’

“Part of the reason we haven’t talked a lot about Everwild is because we’re still feeling a lot of these things out. We’re still playing around with gameplay ideas.

“We’ll have plenty to say in the future on that, but … we have an idea we feel really passionate about, and we think there’s something special. I have a team of people that wake up every morning with the desire to make this game that they’re really, really passionate about.”

With this it's almost closer to keep it in the oven 'til you know if it's a soufflé or a brownie

If it's anything like Sea of Thieves they'll release it to diners as bare ingredients and put it together while they're eating it
