Gaming News Dontnod (Life is Strange, Vampire): New name, new logo and 7 teased games in pictures!
Dontnod Entertainment is a studio that is starting to have some baggage. Today, the company updates by adopting a “new” name, logo and video to tease the next seven projects along the way. only that !
Not
Just yesterday, Dontnod Entertainment gave us an appointment for some important news about him today. It can be exciting if you know the honestly convincing liabilities of the Paris studio, which recently opened a branch in Montreal: Remember Me, Life is Strange, Vampyr, so many productions that have allowed him to build quite a pedigree… making him a company to watch carefully.
And as promised, the message has fallen. These coincide exactly with the 14-year company anniversary, which, exceptionally, has been given a new name: now say hello to “DON’T NOD” (literally “don’t nod”) as well as a brand new logo and even one website internet Brand new.
We’re reintroducing the apostrophe and space between “DON’T” and “NOD” to give the company’s name its full meaning. DON’T NOD is made up of two words that, as a company and in the games we make, represent our tendency not to be afraid to swim against the tide and break the codes, which is also broken by the D and that in it visible N is illustrated. This new logo connects our creations – immersive and meaningful stories – to who we are as a company.
It seems to specify really well that it was the studio’s original name when it was founded in 2008.
7 pictures for 7 games
In a more playful mood, DON’T NOD also released a frankly short little video: only nineteen seconds… and yet so many clues. As a matter of fact, Each version of the logo allows to tease a game currently in preparation, so seven in total. We can then see a cassette with a VHS filter (the return of Life is Strange?), a winter atmosphere tinged with ancient runes, a rather dreamy star logo, another bathed in the Northern Lights…
Enough to allow the theories the community is already working on to flourish. The only project that is already formalized at the moment: the very last one (in the snow), which is called Gerda: A Flame In Winter and whose release date is scheduled for September 1st. This is an adventure and storytelling game that puts the player in the shoes of Gerda, a young nurse lost amidst the horrors of World War II. Note that DON’T NOD is the publisher, the software is developed by an outside studio, Portaplay (Broken Lines).
