If you’re a fan of top-tier action games, chances are you’re familiar with the name Stig Asmussen. Back in the Playstation 3 era, he was one of the masterminds behind the phenomenal God of War 3 series before becoming known for delivering one of the best single-player Star Wars games on the market today – Star Wars Jedi. Asmussen’s departure from EA and Respawn in 2023 left a significant question mark, sparking curiosity about his future in the gaming industry. However, it didn’t take long for that curiosity to be satisfied.
Stig Asmussen has officially introduced his new studio – Giant Skull, accompanied by a fierce logo. Giant Skull is defined as a studio dedicated to crafting action-adventure games with thrilling gameplay and immersive narratives, set in captivating worlds.
Backed by several other gaming veterans, Giant Skull’s inaugural project promises to be a AAA-scale single-player action-adventure game built using Unreal Engine 5. Unfortunately, there’s limited information available about this game at the moment.
Asmussen has remained tight-lipped about release windows or even when we can expect to catch a glimpse of this upcoming game firsthand. What about you? Are you optimistic about this project?
