The summer events have already arrived, and we have already been able to see big heavyweights like the Summer Games Fest 2023, but we still have a lot to see. Now we have been able to enjoy this year’s Tribecas Games Spotlight, an event that normally presents us with new trailers for some highly anticipated games that will arrive soon. Even so, it is usually a relatively modest event, which is why many users fall in love, since more does not always mean better.
If for some reason you have not been able to see this event, and still want to be up to date with everything that has been presented, then We are going to summarize everything presented in the Tribeca Games Spotlight 2023.
A Highland Song
If you like 2D exploration games, probably the start of the event has been your most dreamed moment, and that is that we have been able to see A Highland Song, a very curious game with great graphicsand it seems that it will have a great focus on the journey to reach the great heights, although it also seems that it will have a great musical focus.
From the details that we have known during this event, it is difficult to discern the quality of the product, but the truth is that these developers have already launched very successful titles that have great quality, How can Heaven’s Fault be?.
for now just we can’t wait to know more details about the gameand especially its release date, since it is not yet confirmed
Goodbay Volcano High
We have already seen this game on several occasions, although in this case instead of being able to see a new trailer, in which its artistic section and the fact that it turns out to be a musical game will be highlighted, we have been able to hear the developers of the title speakwhich have given us interesting information.
To begin with, and although we already knew this, it has been emphasized in a world in which a meteorite is close to destroying all civilization. This would be a common thing, but in this case it focuses on a group of people who have finished their last year of high school, so when it seemed that they were going to start living, this catastrophe is going to end their lives. In that sense, the developers have explained that they decided to make the game more like an anime, focusing more on emotions than on the romances you can have in the game.
Furthermore, and although we also knew this, have made it clear that music will play a very important role within this visual novel, which we can enjoy from next August 29 on PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4 and PC.
Chants of Sennaar
We continue with one of the most particular games at the graphic level of this event, which makes great use of colors of a yellowish hue as well as the well-known cel shading. At a playable level it is quite difficult to say what it is about with a single gameplay, luckily the developers have explained a lot about their game to us.
To begin with, we have known that language will have a fundamental importance within this title, and that is that many of the characters that we meet will speak different languages, and many of the puzzles will have to do with this. Interestingly, this will be the main focus of the game, but we will also have moments of stealth gameplay.
In addition, at a conceptual level, we have been able to learn that it is based on the myth of Babel, although if we focus only on the graphic aspect, it has been commented that is heavily inspired by the European comics of the 80s and 90s. We will have it available from September 5, coming to PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch and PC.
Nightscape
If you like astronomy, this is probably the most interesting game for you in this Tribeca Games Spotlight. Not only will we take on the role of an astronomer obsessed with observing the starry night, but also ^^the game will use the constellations as if they were some kind of puzzles**, although it goes further.
We have been able to see how, on certain occasions, the protagonist will be able to use the aforementioned constellations to advance the scenario, in addition to solving different puzzles. This makes it a unique game, although it is necessary to mention that it is not a game designed for us, although of course we can enjoy it. This is because, as the developers have explained, it is a game developed with the Middle Eastern audience in mindwhich consumes many video games, but few that are developed in its territory.
For now we do not have much more information about the game, since They have not presented us with the release date or even the platforms for which it will be released. Even so, we recommend you take a look at the game’s official Twitter account, where there is a lot of content about it.
Stray Gods
We jump from a very particular game due to its premise, to another that has surprised us for exactly the same one, and that is that according to those responsible themselves, we are talking about a musical role titlea concept we can’t say we’ve ever seen before.
In this sense, and in the absence of being able to see more gameplay of the game, which makes us completely convinced, we can say that it will have a very important musical component, although it seems that the dialogues with the characters will be too. For this reason, the developers have wanted to inform that great Broadway actors have worked on this project.
Stray Gods is scheduled to be released on August 3 exclusively for PC (via Steam).
The Expanse: A Telltale Series
Telltale is a well-known developer in the industry, which disappeared for a while, only to come back in style. He currently has several games in development, but the closest one is undoubtedly The Expense, the game based on the popular series of the same name.
Again, the most remarkable thing that we have been able to see about this game in the 2023 Tribeca Games Spotlight is the comments from those responsible, and that is that we have been able to find out some details that we were missing, such as the fact that It is set several years after the first season of the series., although in this case we cannot say that it has been very fruitful. Of course, it is necessary to point out that they have stressed that any action will affect the course of the story, something that is Telltale’s trademark.
For now they have not given us a release date, although we do know that in principle it should be released during the current year 2023.
Despelote
If we focus only on the name, this is probably the game that all Spanish-speakers are most curious about, and it is even strange. Yes, we are talking about a soccer gamealthough we can say that, as those responsible have explained, it has a biographical point.
It is set in the year 2001, and we will control an 8-year-old boy, who has fun with his friends playing soccer, but not everything stays here. Those of you who are very invested in the subject will know it, but in that same year Ecuador, the place where the game is set, qualified for the 2002 World Cup. This may seem silly, it was a historic achievement for the country, despite the fact that they were later eliminated in the group stage. For this reason, the game has a great focus on this historical moment, telling how it was lived in Ecuadorian families.
In addition it is a game that stands out for its very particular artistic section, which mixes 2D with 3D, making a contrast that you will end up loving or hating. If you are one of the first, we have to give you the bad news that there is still We don’t have an official release date..
