Stripped-back controls combined with explosive mechanics and wacky physics allow for pinball-esque bounce to every step you take.

“In A Far Away Realm, not only have we designed visually stunning worlds and charming hero characters, but we’ve also dedicated particular attention to the gameplay’s mechanics and feel,” explains Kaya Tilev, Lava Games founder and Creative Director. “Imagine the signature ‘slide and bounce’ of your favourite 3D platformer, reimagined as a bubbly multiplayer shooter for players of all ages – enjoyed either nonchalantly or competitively.”

Featuring a fresh approach, stylish visuals and an idyllic colour palette, A Far Away Realm is an otherworldly title easy on the eyes that is perfectly geared towards players, streamers, and viewers alike. The team-based gambol also ditches violence, gore, and nudity to be fun for all the family.

“Kaya brings a fresh perspective and growth mindset to a proven genre opportunity. We’re excited to partner with him and his team to redefine lightweight, accessible fun,” shares Ryann Lai, Partner at Makers Fund.

A Far Away Realm is in the early stages of development. Further details regarding launch platforms and release timings will be announced at a later date.

Supported by EA founder Trip Hawkins and funded by Makers Fund, Lava Games is a brand-new studio with a global team that consists of veteran developers from leading companies like Riot, EA, Dice, and more. Lava Games has now opened sign-ups for alpha testing for its debut project, A Far Away Realm, with limited founder packs available to the initial 1000 players – granting early access, perpetual founder status, and hi-res posters signed by the dev team.

"Kaya Tilev is a next-gen CEO of a next-gen game company,” states EA founder Trip Hawkins. “With more families and friends playing modern social games together, A Far Away Realm is well-timed to be a winner with our growing audience of digital natives."
