Area Effect, a studio made up of former Ubisoft developers, has announced Izle, a 3D action-adventure world-building RPG coming to PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Wii U, PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, and PC in 2016.
The game will have players building their own world by summoning the power of the gods and terraforming a variety of randomly-created islands. Players will be able to explore, harness abilities, and forge items to create new character classes.
KrisWB from This is Xbox writes "Where has the time gone? Issue #8 of the TiX crowdfunding spotlight is here. This week’s edition (written while listening to this week’s ThisisXbox Podcast) focuses on two unique titles; IZLE an action-adventure RPG from Area Effect and HUSH a challenging action-adventure video game about our childhood fears from London-based Game Studio 78. First, it’s time to catch up on the projects we’ve been following."
Zack Keosaian writes: "Now that the developers at Area Effect have released a playable demo, we finally get a hands-on look at what Izle is all about. In a few words, Izle gives players the power to create randomly generated worlds, then have their own RPG adventures in them. The random generation of content within the floating islands assures that each adventure has unexpected twists and turns, placing enemies in random spots as opposed to letting the player place them. With so many options available, this RPG/simulation hybrid makes for a gameplay style with immense depth."

Looks wonderful
What is this? This game has my attention
it looks cool
Damn, these games seem to be in demand.. regardless, looks great! Cannot wait to see more!
Indies are really churning out a lot of great games lately.
If it's decent I'll buy it. My ps3 needs a game companion besides Tales of Zestiria and this fits the bill nicely so far.
