David Brevik, creator of Diablo, has unveiled his new project, which launches this weekend into closed beta.
Brevik's new game, It Lurks Below, mixes elements of Diablo, Terraria, and Minecraft and launches on Steam later this year. The game will feature an indie/retro aesthetic, and those interested in a closer look at the game can tune in to the game's first streaming event this Friday.
The closed beta runs from Friday, February 2, to Monday evening, February 5, and participants are encouraged to stream the game. Brevik himself will stream on Friday from 9-11pm PST on Twitch. He will also stream on Saturday from 3 5- pm PST, Sunday from 10 am to noon PST, and Monday from noon to 2 pm PST.
It Lurks Below is Brevik's first major release since 2013. Creating his one-man studio, Graybeard Games, after leaving his position as CEO of Gazillion Entertainment in 2015, Brevik says it is humbling to go "from large teams making content based on huge properties like Marvel to a one-man team with a brand new idea," but he feels "like I'm finally right back where I belong - actually getting my hands dirty and creating great games."
