‘World to the West’: A new action puzzler by ‘Teslagrad’ developer Rain Games; possibilities to be released on Nintendo NX?

It's still unsure whether this is a new genre in gaming or maybe considered either action or puzzle games, but the genre "action puzzler" is an innovative experience in the world of games. Especially that developer Rain Games had "Teslagrad" as a good example of an action puzzler, we might be having a new one in the making and it's called "World to the West."

Being published by Soedesco, the game is also set in the same universe as its predecessor "Teslagrad." Here's a full official description along with a breakdown of the game's features (thanks to Dualshockers):

"Discover a world of corrupt colonies and forgotten civilizations. Play as four characters-Lumina the Teslamancer, Knaus the orphan, Miss Teri the mind bender and the gloriously mustachioed strongman, Lord Clonington-as you explore untamed jungles, frozen tundras and the mysteries of an ancient prophecy. Be careful though. Nothing is ever what it seems. Will you join us in this journey to the West?"

Features:

• Play as four heroes, each hailing from individual nations and possessing unique identities and abilities.
• Explore a vibrant world filled with characters who have their own helpful and not-so-helpful agendas.
• Experience seamless transitions between combat and puzzle solving that keep you on your toes.
• Face your enemies head-on with brute force, convince them to see things your way or avoid them altogether. It's your call!
• Uncover secrets, more secrets and secrets inside secrets. Exploration is key to unveiling World to the West's mysteries.
• Set in the Teslagrad universe, encounter both new and familiar faces.

According to an earlier article of Nintendo Insider, artist Ole Ivar Rudi was asked if "World to the West" will be released for the upcoming Nintendo NX. While he's sure that it won't come out for the 3DS, he assured that the game will "show up on additional platforms, maybe even another Nintendo platform." He didn't want to reveal any more than that, so we just have to cross our fingers and hope that the "World to the West" will be added in the roster of NX games.

"World to the West" will be release on Wii U, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC in Q1 2017.
