#TCHIA TRAILER SERIES#

According to them Tchias are “curious and exploratory” which seems to fit the game. I was wondering what Tchia meant, but turns out, when you type in “what does Tchia mean?” the first thing you’ll find is a weird website that gives you seemingly randomly generated meanings for names. Local wildlife, fauna and environments were also inspired by real world New Caledonia. “All characters are voiced in traditional languages by local talent”, said the game’s director.

Forget DokeV: this is the real game that's like every other game.Īll jokes aside, the team at Awaceb is committed to honouring New Caledonian culture. Tchia can play the ukulele (ala The Last Of Us Part II's guitar), explore the island at night with a flashlight (like Alan Wake) and utilise a slingshot (reminiscent of Rockstar’s Bully). The trailer gave us a glimpse of some less-supernatural occurrences in the game. More natural modes of travel like gliding, sailing, climbing and underwater swimming were also shown off. This ability seems useful for travelling the world in unique ways and solving problems, like opening a treasure chest using a crab’s claws. It seems Tchia has an ability called Jumping that she can use to control any animal or object – the Game Awards trailer had her flopping about as a mango.

Our latest glimpse at Tchia was light on new details about the game but it still gave us updated looks at the vibrant environments, modes of traversal and cast of characters.

#TCHIA TRAILER SERIES#

Tchia is an open world game set in a fictional series of islands, inspired by New Caledonia - a collection of islands that are in the Pacific but remain a French-administered territory. Previously announced at The Game Awards 2020, cute adventure game Tchia received a brand-new trailer at last night’s PlayStation livestream and it looked gorgeous.
