Splash Damage unveils ‘Project Astrid’ an upcoming open-world survival game

It has been a while since we've heard from Splash Damage but that is changing this week with a new game announcement. The UK-based game studio is now working on a new survival game, with streamers Shroud and Sacriel lending their ideas to the team. 

Unlike other recent streamer-developer collaborative projects, this one isn't designed around crypto or NFTs. Instead, this is just supposed to be a fun and honest survival game, with two streamers well-known for playing these types of games helping to relay some ideas that could help push the game above the competition.

The game is being developed under the codename Project Astrid and unfortunately, there are no other details available at this time. However, Splash Damage says it will have more to reveal “in the near future”.

Aside from Project Astrid, Splash Damage is also working on Transformers: Reactive, which is due to begin beta testing later this year. Previously, Splash Damage has worked on other games like Gears Tactics, Halo: The Master Chief Collection, Gears 5, Brink, Dirty Bomb and more.

KitGuru Says: A lot of people nowadays watch streamers and take their opinions on board before buying titles, so bringing their feedback into the development process could be helpful, particularly for online multiplayer games.

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.
