Game designer Andrew Gower, who created the legendary, still-active RuneScape MMO with his brother Paul in the early 2000s, has just unveiled a new MMO, and it's releasing this year.
Brighter Shores has been in development for 10 years, according to Gower's studio, Fen Research. It aims to provide "a relaxing respite from daily life," casting players as town guards in a "cozy" fantasy world—though not so cozy that the whole game is about snoozing next to a portcullis. Our concerns will quickly expand "far beyond the town walls" as we deal with "a greater threat across the fantastical world of Adothria."
