Izle Announced For Consoles and PC

Area Effect has announced that the 3D action-RPG Izle is currently in development for Steam, XBLA, PSN and Nintendo Wii U with an expected release in 2016.


From the Press Release
Designer and developer, Area Effect, announced today its upcoming 3D action-adventure RPG, Izle. In development for Steam, XBLA (Xbox 360, Xbox One) PlayStation Network (PS3, PS4) and Nintendo Wii U to launch in 2016. Izle invites its players to build their own world by summoning the power of the gods and terraforming a variety of islands. Each unique island is randomly created and ready for players to explore, harness abilities and forge items into endless possibilities to create new character classes. Izle is currently in its Alpha stage. Players can register now to be a part of the upcoming closed alpha test at www.izlegame.com

Developed and published by Area Effect, a studio made up of Ubisoft veterans, Izle players will use terraforming to build their own unique island worlds. Players will acquire new items and abilities and combine them into endless possibilities to create their very own class. But with great freedom comes great responsibility, and if not defended, the kingdom will be shattered by the forces of shadows!

Izle has already created great buzz and interest, taking top honors at the European Game Connection Development Awards in October 2014. Izle won Most Creative and Original Project, Best Hardcore Game and Best Desktop and Downloadable Game awards.

“Izle is truly a passion project for us, and we are so proud of the reaction we have received at its early stages,” said Alexis Bacot, Founder of Area Affect. “Izle is a very ambitious project that we are excited to see come to life as our development continues and as the Izle community grows and flourishes.”

Izle will launch a Kickstarter this Spring to support the development of the Steam and Next Gen Console versions. Players can register now at www.izlegame.com to become an Ambassador of Izle, which will earn them special rewards. All the latest game news, art, videos and Kickstarter details will be revealed over the next few months at www.izlegame.com.
