Blackwood Crossing Announced for Xbox One, PS4 and PC
PaperSeven, an indie studio out of Brighton, has revealed the story-driven adventure game, Blackwood Crossing as their first major release. Coming to the PlayStation 4, Xbox One and to PC it will see release sometime this year. No specific date has yet been set. Made up of former Disney Black Rock Studio members, as well as The Room writer, Oliver Reid-Smith, it looks like PaperSeven is bringing a lot of talent to their team.
Blackwood Crossing is a story-driven first-person adventure game exploring the relationship between Scarlett and Finn, orphaned siblings growing apart as Scarlett is coming of age and leaving childhood behind. When they cross paths with a mysterious figure, a seemingly ordinary train ride evolves into a magical story of life, love and loss.
“This is our first original game since forming PaperSeven and we are immensely proud to be announcing it” said Alice Guy, co-founder of the studio. “There’s been some fantastic narrative adventure games coming out in recent times – we’re hoping to take a place at this table whilst offering something different to what’s come before. Blackwood Crossing is evidence of our desire to explore experiences with depth and meaning, and create characters that challenge the often clichéd gaming landscape.”
