![]() Our genderless hero could even be an alien. The rest of your attire could be a wetsuit of sorts, a suspicion backed up by a pair of elongated swim fins…assuming that’s not his/her real anatomy. You are this mysterious and strange looking swimmer wearing something that looks like a helmet that contains a black face and cat-like eyes. Much like Journey, Abzu begins with no introduction and no story relevance. Juxtaposed against the desolate barrenness of the desert, Abzu is a world teeming with life, both plant and aquatic, yet somehow manages to instill that same level of character/player isolation throughout most of its four-hour run. If anyone was wondering why the classic PS3 game, Journey was so dry and sandy we can blame art director and Giant Squid studio founder, Matt Nava who was apparently hoarding ALL the water for use in his new game Abzu.
