The infamous Hidetaka “SWERY” Suehiro, known for cult classics such as Deadly Premonition and D4, has had an eventful few weeks. After a failed Fig crowdfunding campaign in 2017, last month he came back swinging with a shiny new campaign, this time on Kickstarter – and, after a tense final few days, SWERY’s dream game was finally funded.
These aren’t nostalgia grabs or gimmick-laden throwbacks. They each bring something genuinely fresh to the table, mechanics that feel baked into the exploration and combat, not just tacked on.
Swedish Arrowhead is behind the successful game Helldivers and made a profit of 729 million kronor last year after its latest launch. In addition, Chinese Tencent has bought just over 15 percent of the shares at a valuation of just over 5 billion.
