"It's likely that we would find it impossible to build and design this new game without the lessons we acquired in the last release," the manager tells the press.

One of those insights was to involve the community engaged soon, and the team launched invite-only player playtests earlier this year.

This "response was explosively positive," says the manager.

The Guildford team creative lead Fas Salim is the person tasked with "making sure those stages are as fun and compelling as feasible for the audience."

Despite claims that the scope of the game had created pressure for the different developers collaborating across continents to build the game, Fas is optimistic about the work.

"Partnering with different perspectives, different heritages, it's a very engaging atmosphere to be engaged with on a regular basis," he explains.

"The complete method has been a fresh take but also very inspiring because we are working with team members from all over the world."

As for the anticipation on the crew, he states: "We experience pressure but at the same time it's exciting.

"It's a major undertaking. It's likely the most significant that most of us have before participated in."

He explains he's a long-time supporter of the games, and remembers playing the fourth instalment of the line at a pal's home when he was younger.
