Ubisoft has reached into the back of the cupboard, grabbed the intellectual property rights for five games it wasn’t doing anything with, and sold them to Atari. The five games are Cold Fear (which is basically Resident Evil on a boat), I Am Alive (a post-apocalyptic survival platformer), Child of Eden (a psychedelic rhythm game), and both Grow Home and its sequel Grow Up (which are physics-based climbing games where you’re a cute robot).
Who the hell is Atari these days? I remember hearing about the Atari name being sold to like 6 different international investment funds in sequence, and that was in 2016 or something.

The Grow Home/Up games were adorable and people love those kinds of simple but fun movement baaed games. I’d love to see that expanded on.
I wouldn’t be mad at more cold fear either.
Cold Fear and Child of Eden are both very different, but quite unique games. Glad to see them free of Ubisoft
Fuck yeah Child of Eden was so much fun to play while tripping I would love a sequel
