Bit of a waitApogee has announced that Wreckit Games? open-world adventure Elements has succeeded in its Kickstarter campaign (https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/findthestones/elements-an-open-world-co-op-rpg-inspired-by-zelda-botw) and is set to drop into Steam Early Access in the second quarter of 2024, followed by a release on various consoles in 2025.
Elements is a vibrant-looking open-world game set in the land of Elemythia. The game gives some mad Breath of the Wild (https://www.destructoid.com/reviews/review-the-legend-of-zelda-breath-of-the-wild/) smells, but it looks to differentiate itself by providing some home-building mechanics and two-player co-op. The developer is also touting a ?Hollywood screenwriter? and the voice actress who lent her cords to Princess Zelda in Breath of the Wild.

I?m a bit of a fan of Apogee?s reinvention of itself. Utilizing its name recognition for publishing small and independent titles feels a bit like a return to the company?s original manifesto. I doubt we?ll be getting a rebirth of shareware, however.
With that said, while Elements definitely has a charming look to it, I think I?m hitting my tolerance limit for open-world games. It?s a genre that grows and grows as the years go on but still somehow stays exactly the same.
Nevertheless, the people have spoken, and the Kickstarter campaign sits at around $200,000 Canadian Loonies as of writing. The campaign runs until Friday, March 3, 2023, at 6:00 PM PST, so there?s still a bit of time to nab a tier if this all looks interesting.
If not, Elements will hit Steam Early Access in Q2 2024. The full title is expected to come to PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch, and PC in Q2 2025.
