Immortals: Fenyx Rising sequel will reportedly feature Polynesian setting UbisoftUbisoft\u2019s Immortals: Fenyx Rising was a success when it came out in 2020, and now it looks like a follow-up is on the way, reportedly based on \u201cPolynesian culture.\u201d Immortals: Fenyx Rising was a massive, open-world title centered around Greek mythology as young Fenyx takes advice from the sage gods and even fights them in some cases. Its gorgeous, sprawling world was much-loved, and it seems like a sequel could be on the way. Leaks are pretty much to be expected in the modern era of gaming and one of the driving forces of this practice is industry insider Jeff Grubb. He has been responsible for a number of leaks and rumors, a large portion of which have turned out to be correct. Grubb has now outed another potential new game in the pipeline, and it\u2019s new content in Ubisoft\u2019s Immortals universe. Immortals: Fenyx Rising sequel on the way? Information and insider gaming gossip are regularly discussed on the weekly \u201cJeff Grubb\u2019s Game Mess\u201d podcast. On the most recent edition of the show, Grubb talked about Ubisoft doing another game to succeed Immortals: Fenyx Rising as the Zelda: Breath of the Wild-inspired title performed very well. \u201cUbisoft Quebec sequel to Immortal: Fenyx Rising is not a proper sequel, it\u2019s more of a spin-off, in the same way, the production name of the game is called Oxygen, you\u2019re a hero, a guy or a girl, because Ubisoft, it\u2019s based on Hawaiian-Polynesian culture this time around.\u201d Grubb continued: \u201c[There] will still be a God narrator, they will still try to be visually stylized but less of a copy of Breath of the Wild. They [Ubisoft] talk about a visual reboot, it\u2019s in early pre-production, I\u2019ve seen some concept art, and it\u2019s coming maybe in 2025.\u201d Grubb clarifies that he\u2019s reading this information from a source and doesn\u2019t believe it\u2019s one of the canceled Ubisoft projects following in the footsteps of Splinter Cell VR, Ghost Recon Frontline, and more. As we alluded to earlier, the biggest criticism of Immortals: Fenyx Rising was the game\u2019s identity or lack of it. Few games have delved into Polynesian territory before, so it\u2019ll be interesting to see how Ubisoft includes the culture, as well as its biggest gods: Kane, Kanaloa, Hikule\u2019o, and more. It borrowed quite heavily from Breath of the Wild, which isn\u2019t a bad decision considering how highly regarded that game is, and having a reported sequel try to reinvent itself could finally give the franchise some individuality.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
