If you can remember back to 2019 then you may well remember the launch of FAR: Lone Sails. It was a stunning game, one that told stories like never before. Today, the companion game arrives – the highly atmospheric and emotive FAR: Changing Tides. And it’s damn good.
Available to purchase and download this very minute on Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, PS4, PS5, Nintendo Switch and PC is FAR: Changing Tides. It’s priced at £14.99 unless you want to make the most of Xbox Game Pass and play it for free through that service.
In a switch from the desert lands of Lone Sails, FAR: Changing Tides whisks players off to a flooded world as they look to take in the meditative journey which promises to unfold. Created by the development team at Okomotive and picked up by Frontier Foundry, this is a post-apocalyptic adventure which will try to deliver one of the most memorable experiences of recent years.
Pushed along by a dynamic soundtrack, a glorious art style (something which has been the main focus of our stunning press kit) and a ton of verticality due to the opportunity to dive under the waves, if you’re looking for something that works as a partner to Lone Sails, this is it.
We've been lucky enough to have been sent all manner of great press kits over the years- expanding flannels, USB keys, caps, shirts, sweets, beer and more. Not sure any top the FAR: Changing Tides acrylic artwork ? Huge thanks @FARtheGame #farchangingtides#XboxOne#XboxSeriesX pic.twitter.com/xJqHr9g4vu
The main thrust of the story focuses on you taking control of a lone boy, Toe, as he attempts to captain a ship, navigating through a drowned world. Puzzles await, as does the chance to take in flooded civilizations and the need to work through natural elements.
Okomotive Lead Designer and Co-Founder, Don Schmocker, said, “What started as a university project with FAR: Lone Sails has grown into a studio of 10 people, two games and over six years of wonderful memories made at Okomotive. Our development journey for FAR: Changing Tides has ended but we can’t wait to see how our players experience their journey in this wonderful world.”
Key game features include:
The launch trailer below these words is well worth taking in, if only as it’s able to fully convey what is expected of a FAR: Changing Tides player. Give it a watch as you wait for your download from the Xbox Store, PlayStation Store, Nintendo eShop, Steam or Epic Store takes place.
We’d fully advise you to give our review of FAR: Changing Tides a read too. We absolutely love the game.
