The new video doesn’t just show off gameplay, it drops us right into a beautifully bizarre creative dilemma: Composer Yasunori Nishiki (Octopath Traveler, Final Fantasy VII Rebirth) has joined the team… and immediately hit a wall. "I haven’t written anything yet," he starts, "This game takes on such complicated topics and mixes so many ideas, I'm a little lost."
Luckily, he’s not alone! Fellow composers Kevin Penkin (Star Wars: Visions, Made in Abyss, Florence), Mason Lieberman (Overwatch 2, Stray Gods: The Roleplaying Musical, League of Legends: Wild Rift), and Pete Lepley (Wargroove, Sky Rogue) step in to offer help, from poetic to painfully honest. Penkin finds inspiration in love. Lieberman reminds us that love always brings death. And Lepley? He just wants the music to hit hard enough to get the adrenaline pumping.
The trailer gives a taste of the emotional layers and tonal contrasts behind The Eternal Life of Goldman, a hand-crafted narrative 2D platformer adventure where players explore a scattered archipelago to track and destroy a mysterious deity. It’s haunting, it’s beautiful, and sometimes a little tough. Just like the creative process itself.
The Eternal Life of Goldman is being developed by Weappy Studio and published by THQ Nordic and will be available for Nintendo® Switch, PS5™, Xbox Series X|S, and PC.
