posted on by Crystalyn Hodgkins
Idea Factory announced on Friday that game developer Compile Heart, Sony's ForwardWorks company, and anime studio Tezuka Productions are collaborating to develop the Eshigami no Kizuna (The Bonds of Gods of Artists) smartphone game.
Compile Heart illustrators Tsunako (Neptunia series), Katsuyuki Hirano (Record of Agarest War, Genkai Tokki Moero Crystal), and Kei Nanameda (Mugen Souls, Trillion: God of Destruction) are attached to the work. The game will also feature other illustrators from inside and outside of Compile Heart.
The companies revealed one of the characters in the game, designed by Tsunako.
The tagline for the game's story is, "Artists borrow the strength of 'gods' and fight their 'deadline.'" The iOS and Android game is slated for 2018.
Sony established ForwardWorks as a smart device content development company in April 2016.
