Shroud is making a AAA open-world survival game

The game developer Splash Damage has announced that it is teaming up with Mike "Shroud" Grzesiek and Chris "Sacriel" Ball to make an open-world survival game.

Known as Project Astrid currently, we're told that the game is the "bold step forward" for the developer, and that this title gives them the "opportunity to build a new, original world, like Brink and Dirty Bomb. However, we now have the freedom to do it on a much more ambitious scale."

"This project means everything to me. Chris and I have refined a vision for what's next in the survival genre and with Splash Damage we're setting out to build it. We want to build the best survival game ever, and with Sacriel's brain and Splash Damage's team, I know we can do it," stated Shroud.

Splash Damage has shared that Project Astrid is still in pre-production, and that we can expect further information and reveals in the near future. Also, the developer has confirmed that it is still hard at work on development of Transformers: Reactivate as well.
