Warsaw, Poland – June 19th, 2024 — 11 bit studios is delighted to announce the upcoming launch of Creatures of Ava, a unique “creature saver” game co-developed by Spanish studios Inverge Games and Chibig, on August 7th, 2024. Coming to PC and Xbox Series X|S, players will be enchanted by the cozy charm of its unforgettable species, which they will strive to preserve as they explore a mysterious planet burdened with a life-consuming virus.
Accompanying this announcement is a short video showcasing some of these curious creatures in their natural environment.
In Creatures of Ava, the player’s goal is to tame, befriend, and save—not capture—the many unique species they will encounter. Featuring a non-violent combat system and four distinct, vividly radiant biomes to explore, Ava is a planet in peril slowly decaying under the pressure of a mystical infection called ‘The Withering’. Players take on the role of bright-eyed adventurer, Vic, and must investigate Ava’s vibrant landscapes while taking action to save its existence and the existence of all its inhabitants.
But what does it mean to truly save something? While our human inclination is to protect the weak and aid the vulnerable, will players dare to let go in the face of adversity when the struggle becomes too much? It’s up to players to understand and stop the epidemic inflicting Ava and know when to swallow the bitter taste of walking away.
Creatures of Ava, co-developed by Spanish studios Inverge Games and Chibig and published by 11 bit studios, will be released on August 7th for PC and Xbox Series X. From day one, the game will also be available on PC Game Pass and Xbox Game Pass.
