Life is Strange developer Don't Nod has laid out its future plans, and is focusing on a few specific genre of games moving forward. The studio also has a total of seven projects currently in development.
According to its most recent financial report, Don't Nod is doubling down on action-RPGs, action-adventure, and narrative adventure games. It cites its expertise in AA+ games--those somewhere between mid-sized and full AAA games--mentioning the success of its most recent games such as 2023's Harmony: The Fall of Reverie and Jusant, as well as the recently released Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden.
Don't Nod is looking to have a balance between publishing its own IP and publishing games from other studios, and it aims to release, on average, two games per year.
Of the seven games Don't Nod is working on, five of them are developed in-house while two are in the hands of external partners. Lost Records: Bloom & Rage is set to launch in 2024 and is being developed by its Montreal studio. Don't Nod is also publishing Studio Tolima's Koira, which is scheduled to launch in 2025.
In GameSpot's Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden review, we said, "Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden is a love story about loss and sacrifice, propelling its choice-driven narrative forward amidst middling combat."
