The studio admits that this latest venture might surprise fans, with executives saying, "Spellcasters Chronicles may startle our community as it is very different from what we have produced in the past. But taking risks, challenging ourselves, investigating new ways of gaming and narrative, and striving for what appears unattainable has always been part of our DNA."
