Shelter 3 is an interesting franchise that generally doesn't want you to be at odds with your environment; rather, it wants you to feel at ease and at peace with your surroundings, which is a far cry from games like, well, Far Cry.
Whereas Shelter 2 centered on a lone lynx mother and her cubs as they learned to find and kill prey to survive, Shelter 3 is a more exploratory and sociable kind of animal existence, where motherhood, social harmony and inheritance are key. Shelter brings players into the wilderness as an elephant mother in charge of her herd, and you'll experience the trials and tribulations of life on the plains. It's up to you to steer the herd in search of new pastures, while being careful to keep your cute ass calves away from tigers and crocodiles who are always hungry for delicious, delicious elephant.
The game doesn't have an exact release date as of yet, but they're aiming for a 2020 release. The new trailer below shows off some of the beautiful art work and how the game will function. If you are looking for a respite from the anger and aggression that is prevalent in most online gaming experiences, give this a look; as Artistic Director Anders Westin says: "We realized that in many ways, elephants are like an extension of the Shelter Community - social, peaceful, and happy in a herd."
Awwwwwwww...
