The team behind the critically acclaimed Disco Elysium has finally unveiled their latest project, marking a new chapter for the studio after navigating a series of internal challenges. ZA/UM, the development team that had previously wowed gamers with their groundbreaking title, has officially announced a new endeavor codenamed “PROJECT [C4]”.
So, what exactly is PROJECT [C4]? For now, the team is keeping details under wraps, only revealing that it’s a narrative-driven espionage game that promises to “redefine the RPG genre”. This bold claim has already generated significant buzz among gamers and industry insiders, who are eager to see how the studio plans to push the boundaries of role-playing games.
PROJECT [C4] represents a new beginning for ZA/UM, especially after the studio faced internal conflicts that led to the departure of several key employees. Many of these former team members have since gone on to establish their own studios or pursue other ventures, which raises questions about the potential impact on the new project. Given that a significant portion of the original Disco Elysium development team will not be contributing to this latest endeavor, it’s natural to wonder how PROJECT [C4] will ultimately shape up. As the project progresses, we’ll be keeping a close eye on any developments to see if ZA/UM can live up to their ambitious vision.
