I went to high school with Sean Astin and Jack Black, so having us all here is a class reunion.Īlex: What a class that must have been! Was it difficult to write a sequel to The Island? Max Brooks: Yes! Sean Astin reads The Mountain audiobook (check out his tweet about recording it!). I’m very dyslexic, so to get back into the language and tone, and to reintroduce me to the character, I listened to the audiobook of The Island over and over again to get me back into how Guy sounds and how he thinks.Īlex: Oh, Jack Black read the audiobook, didn’t he? The challenge was that I’d never written a sequel before. Max Brooks: I always knew that in the next book the character has to leave the island, because growth couldn’t come from being in a comfort zone. But I had to first ask about what in the Overworld Guy is thinking when he decides to set out on his boat at the start of the book.Īlex: Why did he have to leave the island? It was nice there! It is set to be released for the PlayStation VR2 headset on Februas its launch title.I talked with Max about how he found a great story in the clash of Guy and Summer’s personalities, and why that story is important in our pandemic-ridden times. The game was officially announced during Sony’s CES 2022 press conference in January 2022. Horizon Call of the Mountain was developed by Guerrilla Games, which developed Horizon Zero Dawn and Horizon Forbidden West, and Firesprite, a UK-based studio which had worked on VR titles including The Playroom and The Persistence. During his journey, Ryas will meet numerous new and returning characters, including franchise protagonist Aloy. The game’s story follows Ryas, a former Shadow Carja rebel who is sentenced to atone for his crimes by joining an expedition sent to investigate a new threat to the Sundom. In addition to the main story, the game also features a scenic mode named “River Ride”, a guided tour of the game’s landscape.
As the player progresses in the game, they will unlock additional tools and gears, allowing players to be more efficient in both exploration and combat. While the game is largely linear, there are multiple paths for players to explore and approach their objectives. Described as “a master at climbing and archery”, Ryas, the game’s protagonist, is equipped with a hunter bow which can be used to defeat various robotic creatures in the game. The game is played from a first-person perspective.
