Sierra is re-launching itself! A King's Quest re-imagining was announced four years ago, and finally, the thirty-year-old franchise is releasing its first game since 1998 this year.

It has been a long time, hasn't it?
The trailer gave me chills. Straight up chills all over.
It's probably been overshadowed next to the massive E3 list of big-name games to come, but we also were given a glimpse at the latest gameplay trailer and the aesthetics are just stunning. Stunning.

The game was initially picked up by Telltale Games but ultimately dropped, although you can see that it still has a very similar feel and look to the current Telltale Games currently out there. Its aesthetics specifically remind me of The Wolf Among Us.
While styled very much like a point-and-click like the original franchise is so well-known for (which could actually be the very first point-and-click franchise, I am not certain but 1984 would give it a run for its money), going forward the series will actually take the platform of adventure games instead. So far, we have one "season" with five chapters, and I hope there will be more to come!
The art director says that they waded through thousands of applications for painters to find the perfect artists to render their work directly into the game; everything is real-life painting-based and just beautiful.

The game will feature vocal performances by actors such as Christopher Lloyd (Doc Brown, of course), Wallace Shawn (Vizzini from the Princess Pride), Tom Kenny (Spongebob Squarepants), Josh Keaton, Maggie Elizabeth Jones, and Zelda Williams (probably needs no introduction).
Could not be looking forward to this more. Who's excited? Did anyone play the games from the original franchise? I am super excited to see Sierra's revival because they were a huge part of gaming from my childhood and I am basking in nostalgia over here :jess:
