AM2R team reunites for new, original Metroidvania
Some of the team that worked on beloved fan game Another Metroid 2 Remake have reunited to create an original Metroidvania. Bō: Path of the Teal Lotus is 2.5 action-platformer inspired by Japanese folklore and games like Okami, Hollow Knight and Celeste, and will render its world in a "unique hand-drawn art style." It was successfully funded through Kickstarter on March 3, 2022, but just recently announced that the designer of AM2R, Milton Guasti, has joined the team as an associate designer, helping out with level design "to make sure that the exploration and gameplay stays fresh, fun and satisfying." Bō's executive producer, Robert Sephazon, previously worked with Guasti as a producer on AM2R.
Bō: Path of the Teal Lotus is expected to launch of PC, Mac, Linux and Nintendo Switch in September 2023.
