In Reus, the player can control 4 different giants with unique abilities. The giants can change the environment by creating forests, mountains, oceans, etc. By using their powers, the player can let animal and plant species flourish.
But even with the giants’ powers, the player cannot directly control the mankind. They settle and grow under the influence of the changes that the player makes with the abilities of giants, and it is the player’s responsibility to let them thrive. However, human beings can cause war against each other or against the giants. There are various upgrades and synergies that can help the player control the mankind, which allows numerous distinct styles of gameplay.
Reus will be released in Q3 of 2016 on PS4 and Xbox One.
