Seeing as Nine Inch Nails’ Trent Reznor dabbled in video games with his classic score for Quake, bandmate Robin Finck, who has also been involved in scoring video games, has now decided to dive further into the medium. Announced today, Finck has teamed up with AAA game development veteran Cory Davis (Condemned, F.E.A.R., Spec Ops: Hold The Line) to found arthouse game development studio EYES OUT.
The Los Angeles-based studio “taps into a shared love of games and building atmosphere through the imaginative use of audio and visuals.” Both Davis and Finck are no stranger to music, video games and horror. In addition to the previously-mentioned titles, Davis has also worked as creator and composer of the breakout hit Here They Lie. Likewise, Finck has contributed to No Code’s Observation, and Devolver Digital’s NOCT.
In a press release, Davis explains that he met up with Finck while finishing up work on Here They Lie. “We instantly started working on some prototypes I had in development at the time and together we launched straight toward something unexpected,” explains Davis. “Robin’s vibrant and boundless approach to the creative process drives our work far beyond my previous experience. It’s such an exhilarating trip to venture into the darkness together.”
The team is already at work on its first project, a single-player immersive cosmic horror game with “strong environmental storytelling elements.” More information on the title is expected in the coming months.
