11 Bit Studios Announces New Adventure Game ‘Creatures Of Ava’

Settle into a new world with Creatures of Ava from 11 bit studios. Releasing later this year, the action-adventure game allows players to tame creatures and save their world from a life-consuming infection. Co-developed by Spanish studios Inverge and Chibig, the game presents a unique, and engaging atmosphere. A non-violent action adventurer where the goal is to save the creatures, the first teaser offers a vibrant new world.

Creatures of Ava is a unique creature saver game that allows players to explore a world teeming with wild beings. Once peaceful creatures, they now are succumbing to an unknown infection. This results in aggressive behavior. Once healed, the creatures form a unique bond with the player, allowing them to use their skills in traversing the planet and solving environmental challenges.

With non-aggressive combat mechanics designed for healing rather than defeating, and indigenous Flute melodies that you play to tame creatures, the game further emphasizes the creature saver nature of the experience.

What is Creatures of Ava About

Creatures of Ava
Creatures of Ava

Follow the hero, Vic, a 22-year-old adventurer navigating an immersive expedition alongside researcher, Tabitha. Together, you confront the recurring infection—referred to as “the withering” by the local population known as the Naam—threatening Ava’s inhabitants. The gameplay encourages curiosity-driven exploration of its distinct ecosystems, such as the colorful Nari jungle or mysterious Mâruba swamp, creating an interconnected world.

The game’s narrative, co-created by renowned writer Rhianna Pratchett, is a journey of wonder, mystery, and discovery. Once players understand the true meaning of the infection, challengers arrive to step out of the human-centric point of view and learn about the real toll it takes to preserve the primal beauty at the very roots of Ava.

When Will Creatures of Ava Be Released

Creatures of Ava is releasing in 2024. The game will initially be available on Xbox Series X|S and Windows 11 PC, and also with Xbox Game Pass for console and PC Game Pass.
