Cornfox & Brothers have announced it is currently developing the sequel to its adventure game, Oceanhorn, called Oceanhorn 2: Knights of the Lost Realm.
According to Cornfox, Oceanhorn 2 has been in development for a little over a year and the next entry in the series will move players to an entirely new point on the Oceanhorn timeline. The protagonist will be a little older, as players probably expected from any potential sequel, but it sounds like Oceanhorn 2 won’t have much connection (other than gameplay) to its predecessor.
The most stunning aspect of the Oceanhorn 2 announcement, however, is certainly the graphical prowess that the initial artwork suggests will be present in the final game. With a graphical style reminiscent of a high definition version of The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword, the world is full of intricate detail in both the character design, and the environments and enemies present. Considering Oceanhorn 2 has been developed by a core team of only five people, it’s truly stunning to see such impressive work in a game that has only been in development for over a year.
Oceanhorn for consoles arrives on September 7th, 2016.

The blog also states:
“The game is played from a third-person camera angle that will take players right into the heat of action and allows them to explore even the smallest details of Arcadia. Our battle system consists of sword fighting, utilizing powerful spells and finding creative ways to use various items that Hero discovers on his travels.
One of the key items in the game is the Caster, a gun that shoots magical projectiles! It will have many uses on the player’s adventure, from puzzle solving to luring enemies and casting directed spells.
For us, Oceanhorn 2 is the fulfillment of a JRPG dream. It is a dream of running down green fields with the warmth of the sun on your face. It is a dream of learning the secrets of ancient ruins despite the danger. It is also a dream of finding yourself looking at beautiful mountains on the horizon and imagining what’s beyond them. It will be an amazing journey ahead of us and we hope that you will join us on that journey!
In the upcoming months, we will have many things to show to you and many secrets to unveil regarding Oceanhorn 2: Knights of the Lost Realm. This is a dream project for us, but even more importantly, we are making this game for you to enjoy and experience. So, please feel free to share your thoughts and ideas on Twitter and Facebook!”
