To this end, LIONHEART STUDIO has established the "Project Q" development headquarters, which has a large number of key developers who have proven their development power and box office success with "Odin." The original "Project Q" concept released this time contains the grandeur of Nordic mythology as it is the spin-off title of "Odin" IP. You can see warriors of various classes who can feel the experience of fierce battles on the vast Nordic continent with only facial expressions, and the Midgard region where you can get a glimpse of the gloomy and mysterious atmosphere.

LIONHEART STUDIO unveils the next-generation IP 'ProjectS'

■ SF-based, "Post Apocalypse" concept that depicts a worldview in which humanity has been destroyed by an unknown disaster. ■ Loot shooter genre-based, 'Unreal 5' engine adopted to maximize development and gameability proven by 'Odin'. [2023-0411] LIONHEART STUDIO, which marked a milestone in Korea's MMORPG (Multi-Access Role Playing Game) history with "Odin: Valhalla Rising (hereinafter referred to as Odin), will inject the DNA of the success story of "Odin" into the shooting game genre this time.

This release of 'Project S' is LIONHEART STUDIO's second new IP following the previously released Collective Fostering Simulation Project C (tentative name). "Project S" is expected to draw attention from users and the industry in that it is a loot shooter that combines shooting games and RPGs, not the authentic RPG genre that LIONHEART STUDIO has introduced. Loot shooter is a genre that adds RPG elements that use gun weapons to shoot down enemies and foster their own characters through trophies. "Project S" is based on SF and is designed with a post-apocalypse concept that depicts the world view after the collapse of mankind due to an unknown disaster in the near future. In the concept original released this time, you can see unique characters who fight against enemies who threaten humanity using various weapons such as guns and swords. In addition, you can feel the post-apocalypse worldview drawn by Project S in advance through the ruined future city. In particular, LIONHEART STUDIO's strategy is to once again imprint the best graphics quality, technology, and gameability without compromise, which has been proven as "Odin" through "Project S." To this end, Lionheart Studios is developing 'Project S' with Epic Games' latest game engine 'Unreal 5'. LIONHEART STUDIO is developing 'Project S' targeting PC and console platforms to provide the best graphics quality and gameability, with the launch aimed at 2024. In the future, game information, in-game images, and teaser videos will be released sequentially through various channels and media in line with the development of 'Project S'. An official from LIONHEART STUDIO said, "We expect LIONHEART STUDIO to not only succeed in Odin but also become a global top tier game company by injecting its DNA into new IPs of various genres and platforms through Route Shooter 'Project S' and Collective Fostering Simulation 'Project C' released this time."

[2023-0404] LIONHEART STUDIO, which wrote a new history of MMORPG (Multi-Access Role Playing Game) in Korea with "Odin: Valhalla Rising (hereinafter referred to as Odin), will challenge the genre of collective fostering simulation in the subculture field.

The actual game adopts a 'cartoon rendering' method that uses 3D graphics to give an animation-like feeling. It plans to allow characters to feel the beautiful movements in three dimensions. "Project C" is based on a fantasy worldview where magic exists, and the user becomes an instructor and guides characters who have entered the academy. Users should share their journey to graduation with characters with special abilities and individuality, and after the characters graduate, they should lead them and proceed with the main story. In addition, "Project C" will focus on the growth and change of the character and provide the pleasure of watching the character grow according to the user's choice and development direction. The strategy is to freely grow characters through various fostering methods and contents, and to maximize the essential fun of subculture fostering games that deeply interact and sympathize with characters in the process. 'Project C' aims to be released globally in 2024, and plans to introduce it as a multi-platform such as mobile and PC. LIONHEART STUDIO plans to sequentially release game information, in-game images, and teaser videos through various media channels in line with the development of 'Project C'.
