Weird West 'is bigger than Dishonored', for the co-creator of the Arkane series

Speaking to the microphones of the YouTube channel Wassup Conversations, the co-creator of the Dishonored series, Raphael Colantonio, has returned to talk about Weird West after the announcement at the Game Awards 2019 to launch himself in a comparison that is very daring with his previous project signed Arkane Studios and Bethesda.

Although much of his speech has focused on the work he is carrying out with his band Weird Wolves (who will also sign the game's soundtrack), Colantonio wanted to provide interesting advances on the Weird West video game experiment to explain that "and so I left Arkane Studios, but now I'm back in a different form: small budget, small development teams but always great video games. You will see what we are preparing with Weird West, it's a huge game and if I think about it, it could be the biggest game I've ever worked on, even if it doesn't take 200 people to make it. " In further information on the contents of the project he is working on as director of WolfEye Studios, Dishonored co-director reports that "we are making deliberate choices in visual style, so it will be a very nice and special title without having to request a particular expenditure of resources, so that all this part can be realized by four artists ".

Colantonio's words come a few days after the celebrations for the 20 years of Arkane Studios, an event celebrated by the software house in Lyon (later grown to include a branch in the United States) through the publication of the vinyls of the Dishonored soundtrack and the possibility for fans to download Arx Fatalis for free.
