The worldbuilding of this massive open-world game was in charge of George R. R. Martin himself, creator of the popular “Game of Thrones” saga, and it was directed by Hideataka Miyazaki.

Moreover, this game presented through a third-person perspective and with players freely roaming in locations such as dungeons, catacombs, and caves was highlighted by Tesla TSLA and Twitter’s CEO, Elon Musk, as “incredible art.”
