No? A quick refresher then: <em>Edge of Twilight</em> is a steampunk fantasy game first <a href="http://www.joystiq.com/2008/03/06/steampunk-fantasy-game-edge-of-twilight-coming-to-ps3-in-09/">announced way back in 2008</a>. Subsequently, in 2009, development ceased and FuzzyEyes, the studio behind the project, <a href="http://www.joystiq.com/2009/12/03/edge-of-twilight-developer-fuzzyeyes-laid-off-majority-of-staff/">laid off the majority of its staff</a>. Now, it appears that both <em>Edge of Twilight</em> and FuzzyEyes - in some capacity - have returned from the brink, with the developer announcing that the game will finally be released in the summer of 2013 on Xbox and PS3. Though it was originally announced for PC as well, there is no mention of the platform in today's press release.<br /><br />Furthermore, a new game entitled <em>Edge of Twilight - Horizon</em> will be released for free via Apple's App Store (presumably on iOS). Horizon will serve as a prequel of sorts, pitting protagonist Lex against "an important enemy who will later appear in the console versions of <em>Edge of Twilight</em>."<br /><br /><em>Edge of Twilight</em> takes place in a steampunk fantasy world in which day and night are inhabited by completely different civilizations. Lex is able to switch between both day and night, changing up the gameplay and Lex's appearance. Our own Tokyo Game Show 2008 <a href="http://www.joystiq.com/2008/10/22/joystiq-impressions-edge-of-twilight/">impressions</a> likened the game to a combination of <em>Soul Reaver</em> and <em>God of War</em>. Check out a 2009 trailer above.<p><a href="http://www.joystiq.com/2012/12/28/edge-of-twilight-finally-slated-for-summer-2013-release/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Edge of Twilight slated for Summer 2013 release</em></a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ffffcc;border:1px solid #ffff99;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.joystiq.com"><img src="http://www.joystiq.com/media/feedlogo.gif" alt="Joystiq" style="float:left;padding:0 5px 5px 0;" /></a><a href="http://www.joystiq.com/2012/12/28/edge-of-twilight-finally-slated-for-summer-2013-release/">Edge of Twilight slated for Summer 2013 release</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.joystiq.com">Joystiq</a> on Fri, 28 Dec 2012 14:00:00 EST.

Following yesterday's report that <a href="http://playstation.joystiq.com/2008/03/06/steampunk-fantasy-game-edge-of-twilight-coming-to-ps3-in-09/">unsung steampunk</a> action title <a href="http://www.joystiq.com/tag/edge-of-twilight"><em>Edge of Twilight</em></a> had ceased development, we were unsure of the fate of the game's Australian developer, FuzzyEyes. That fate was revealed earlier today in a <a href="http://www.mcvuk.com/press-releases/53623/Fuzzyeyes-update">public statement from the company's CEO</a>, Wei-Yao Lu, who explained, "On 30th of September, FuzzyEyes has let go the majority of staffs as FuzzyEyes was confronted with number of challenges, including economic downturn and some legal complications."<br />
<br />
Lu confirmed that the studio is still in business, and is transitioning as it sells a "portion" of its shares to an unnamed third-party company. During this transition, the studio will "suspend all onsite development," while outsourced development will continue on. Lu claims the studio will be fully operational once more, after the transition, and that a number of employees will be offered their positions back in early 2010. The statement promises more details once the transition is finished -- at which point, we'll hopefully learn the true fate of <em>Edge of Twilight</em>.<br />

Little-known "<a href="http://playstation.joystiq.com/2008/03/06/steampunk-fantasy-game-edge-of-twilight-coming-to-ps3-in-09/">steampunk fantasy</a>" game <em>Edge of Twilight</em> (hey, Tim Langdell, that's <a href="http://www.joystiq.com/2009/11/12/indie-devs-incorporate-edge-into-titles-to-lure-out-tim-langde/">your cue</a>) has apparently gone over the horizon and into oblivion. <a href="http://kotaku.com/5416548/rumor-say-goodnight-to-edge-of-twilight">Kotaku</a> cites sources at Australia-based Fuzzyeyes Studios (which may have shut down) that claim the game ceased development months ago. The title was supposed to release <a href="http://playstation.joystiq.com/2008/10/22/tgs-08-edge-of-twilight-impressions/">this year</a> on PC, PS3 and Xbox 360.<br />
<br />
The last we'd seen of <em>Edge of Twilight</em> was a Japanese trailer released in late 2008. When contacted today, publisher SouthPeak Games offered, "No comment." If the rumor is true, don't be too sad about missing out on Fuzzyeyes' <a href="http://playstation.joystiq.com/2008/04/14/edge-of-twilight-is-ico-soul-reaver-and-god-of-war-bundled-u/"><em>God of War</em>-inspired</a> title. After all, the original <a href="http://joystiq.com/tag/kratos">Ghost of Sparta</a> will star in a new <a href="http://joystiq.com/tag/god-of-war-3">installment</a> early next year -- and there's always <em><a href="http://joystiq.com/tag/dantes-inferno">Dante's Inferno</a></em>.<br />

<div style="text-align: left;">This new trailer for Australian developers Fuzzyeyes' upcoming steampunk adventure has a distinct lack of gameplay, but we'll forgive it that because it's so incredibly <span style="font-style: italic;">moody</span>. The voice over is all in Japanese, so we've no idea what's actually going on, but the visuals allow you to get a glimpse of the steampunk setting. The game certainly got our attention when we were given a private demo at TGS, so check out our <a href="http://www.joystiq.com/2008/10/22/tgs-08-edge-of-twilight-impressions/">eyes-on impressions</a> for more info.</div>

<div align="left">Amid the vast array of Japanese developers and publishers on the TGS show floor sat one small booth which seemed slightly out of place. FUZZYEYES, an Australian development studio, chose to debut its upcoming 2009 title, <em>Edge of Twilight</em>, at the show, and we were invited in for a private demo. The game captured our attention with its dichotomous day/night gameplay and intriguing combat.<br /><br /><em>Edge of Twilight</em> is pegged as a steampunk fantasy title which is part <em>Soul Reaver</em>, part <em>God of War</em>. A lot of emphasis is placed on dark and light. Day and night have been split apart, each inhabited by a different civilization. As a half-breed outcast your character, Lex, is able to pass between the two at certain points. Not only does gameplay change in each realm, but your character will also drastically change appearance. <br /><br />During the day Lex looks similar to Keats from <em>Folklore</em>, with a metal arm and a steampunky lancer-style gun. While in this realm you are able to affect machines, your character is too heavy to jump around, rendering platforming sections nearly impassable. At night he transforms into something a little more monstrous. Part Gollum, part Nightcrawler. In this realm machines are dead, but the emphasis is more on platforming.<br /><br /></div>

FUZZYEYES, an Australian development studio, chose to debut its upcoming 2009 title, <em>Edge of Twilight</em>, at the show, and we were invited in for a private demo. The game captured our attention with its dichotomous day/night gameplay and intriguing combat.<br /><br /><em>Edge of Twilight</em> is pegged as a steampunk fantasy title which is part <em>Soul Reaver</em>, part <em>God of War</em>. A lot of emphasis is placed on dark and light. Day and night have been split apart, each inhabited by a different civilization. As a half-breed outcast your character, Lex, is able to pass between the two at certain points. Not only does gameplay change in each realm, but your character will also drastically change appearance. <br /><br />During the day Lex looks similar to Keats from <em>Folklore</em>, with a metal arm and a steampunky lancer-style gun. While in this realm you are able to affect machines, your character is too heavy to jump around, rendering platforming sections nearly impassable. At night he transforms into something a little more monstrous. Part Gollum, part Nightcrawler. In this realm machines are dead, but the emphasis is more on platforming.</div>

<em>Edge of </em>what? It's okay if you don't remember the game <a href="http://www.joystiq.com/2008/03/06/steampunk-fantasy-game-edge-of-twilight-coming-to-ps3-in-09/">being announced</a>. Thanks to a lack of developer pedigree (and we don't mean that in a nasty way), plus the fact that <a href="http://www.joystiq.com/tag/edge-of-twilight"><em>Edge of Twilight</em></a> is a new IP being developed in Australia, the game hasn't been given much attention. Oh, it's also not due out til some time next year. While we may have heard very little about the title, what we have heard has us intrigued. When you describe the game as being an amalgamation of <a href="http://www.joystiq.com/2008/04/14/edge-of-twilight-is-ico-soul-reaver-and-god-of-war-bundled-u/">three of our favorite franchises</a>, it's hard not to get us interested. <br /><br />The latest news out of developer FuzzyEyes (via an <a href="http://uk.gamespot.com/news/6197826.html?om_act=convert&amp;om_clk=newstop&amp;tag=newstop;title;2">interview</a> with Gamespot) is that <em>Edge of Twilight</em> will support Trophies when it launches next year. They also have plans for <em>Home</em> content, which is always nice to hear. Check out the <a href="http://uk.gamespot.com/news/6197826.html?om_act=convert&amp;om_clk=newstop&amp;tag=newstop;title;2">full interview</a> for more information on why the developers decided to go for a steampunk style, some more background on the main character, Lex, and some insight into the day and night gameplay. Hopefully it'll work better than <a href="http://www.joystiq.com/tag/sonic-unleashed">other games</a> ...<p style="padding:5px;background:#ffffcc;border:1px solid #ffff99;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.joystiq.com"><img src="http://www.joystiq.com/media/feedlogo.gif" alt="Joystiq" style="float:left;padding:0 5px 5px 0;" /></a><a href="http://www.joystiq.com/2008/09/17/edge-of-twilight-will-support-trophies-at-launch/">Edge of Twilight will support Trophies and Home</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.joystiq.com">Joystiq</a> on Wed, 17 Sep 2008 23:30:00 EST.

It seems FUZZYEYES, team behind the steampunk fantasy game <em>Edge of Twilight</em> <a href="http://www.eurogamer.net/article.php?article_id=131247">isn't afraid to tackle that challenge</a>, either. The head honcho of the project, Wei-Yao Lu set the stage for the game by describing a blur between good and evil like never before and how everything they place in the world has justification for being there.<br /><br />That is to say, there's no "Jedi" and "Dark Side" choices -- everything is amoral and ambiguous. Two sides to every story. Speaking of story, the main character, Lex, is a half-breed of two social factions that make up the world. The actions he takes through the game, like meandering around on a side quest, will actually affect the flow of the main storyline.<br /><br />Since you're a half-breed, you have two "personas". One during the day, which gives you brute strength to break scenery and manipulate machinery, and another at night that gives you agile movement and a different fighting style. These two personas will be key in opening up new areas to explore, so we're sure they'll come to light later on. <em>Edge of Twilight</em> is due out next year, so we'll keep our ears to the ground so we can hear the approaching stampede of news.<p style="padding:5px;background:#ffffcc;border:1px solid #ffff99;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.joystiq.com"><img src="http://www.joystiq.com/media/feedlogo.gif" alt="Joystiq" style="float:left;padding:0 5px 5px 0;" /></a><a href="http://www.joystiq.com/2008/04/14/edge-of-twilight-is-ico-soul-reaver-and-god-of-war-bundled-u/">Edge of Twilight is "Ico, Soul Reaver, and God of War" bundled up</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.joystiq.com">Joystiq</a> on Mon, 14 Apr 2008 10:00:00 EST.

Southpeak Games has announced today that it will be publishing Australian developer Fuzzyeyes Studio's 2009 title <em>Edge of Twilight</em>. Though hitherto relatively unheard of, the game was assumed to be for Xbox 360 and PC only, though the press release sent out today confirms that <em>Edge of Twilight</em> will also be heading to PS3 at the same time. The <a href="http://www.edge-of-twilight.com/">game's website</a> is open and what little there is seems very intriguing. The idea of a "steampunk fantasy" is not something we've come across very often, but it sounds very promising. <br /><br />The game is being developed using the Unreal Engine 3 which, six months ago, would have had us worried. <em>Unreal Tournament 3</em> has since shown us that UE3 games can rock on the PS3 and past tragedies such as <em>Stranglehold</em> and <em>Blacksite</em> can be forgotten. We have to say, we're getting some definite <em>Legacy of Kain </em>vibes off of this one (check out the main character, <strike>Raziel</strike> Lex). We're sticking <em>Edge of Twilight</em> on our radar and look forward to any updates between now and its release sometime next year. <br /><br />[Via press release]<p style="padding:5px;background:#ffffcc;border:1px solid #ffff99;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.joystiq.com"><img src="http://www.joystiq.com/media/feedlogo.gif" alt="Joystiq" style="float:left;padding:0 5px 5px 0;" /></a><a href="http://www.joystiq.com/2008/03/06/steampunk-fantasy-game-edge-of-twilight-coming-to-ps3-in-09/">'Steampunk Fantasy' game Edge of Twilight coming to PS3</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.joystiq.com">Joystiq</a> on Thu, 06 Mar 2008 14:30:00 EST.
