Campo Santo's In The Valley Of Gods has a probably meaningless 2029 release date
It’s been five whole years since the "Firewatch" devs announced their tomb-raiding adventure, "In The Valley Of Gods", and in that time the idea of the game itself has fossilised. The first-person archaeology game was put "on hold" in 2019 after Valve "acquired" Campo Santo and had them support other Valve projects like Half-Life: Alyx. Now Campo's in-limbo game has a December 2029 listing on "Steam", which almost certainly means nothing, but it’s fun to dust off some memories. "Read more" Firewatch devs put In The Valley Of Gods on hold
It is a sad day for pretend archaeology. "Firewatch" developers Campo Santo have placed "In The Valley Of Gods" on hold, instead choosing to work on Half-Life: Alyx, Dota Underlords, and other Valve projects. This follows their move to Valve last year, which John (RPS in peace) "quizzed them on at length" in 2018. That means we’ve got a weird, melancholy portal into when Campo were excited about what the move would mean for their new game. Half-Life with a sprinkling of Firewatch sounds neat and... Firewatch dev's Egyptian adventure In the Valley of Gods officially "on hold" at Valve
Two years ago, developer Campo Santo unveiled In the Valley of Gods, the highly anticipated follow-up to its acclaimed narrative adventure Firewatch. Since then, there's been little in the way of additional news, and now, Campo Santo has confirmed that the project, as was increasingly feared by fans, is officially "on hold". In the Valley of Gods, described as a "thrilling narrative adventure in first person" on "its Steam page", was intended to follow the journey of filmmaker Rashida, as she expl... In the Valley of Gods is officially on hold as Campo Santo works on Valve projects
Last month, Firewatch fans began to get a little antsy about Campo Santo's current project, "In the Valley of Gods". Attentive followers noticed that the Twitter bios of three lead developers—Firewatch producer and 3D environment artist Jane Ng, art director Claire Hummel, and Campo Santo co-founder Jake Rodkin—had been "changed" to remove any mention of the game. Valve, which acquired Campo Santo in 2018, was quiet on the matter, but suspicions intensified with the announcement o... Firewatch fans are worried that In the Valley of Gods has been canceled
"In the Valley of Gods", Campo Santo's follow-up to the excellent Firewatch, was unveiled at The Game Awards in late 2017. In "April 2018" we got a closer look at the game and spoke in detail with the studio about the relationships in the game and its many inspirations, from silent films to 1920s archaeology, all in service of capturing the feeling of what it might really be like to run your thumb across an ancient, inscripted wall. Since then, there's been nothing. That silence isn't...
