Video game designer Cory Davis and Nine Inch Nails guitarist Robin Finck are joining forces for a new game development studio.

Revealed today, Los Angeles-based Eyes Out features a team “made up of passionate world-builders and storytellers who believe in the powerful synesthesia that emerges from music, narrative, and interactive experiences.” An announcement video can be seen below.

Davis, who is best known for working on Spec Ops: The Line and Here They Lie, said this about the new venture:

"When I was finishing up work on Here They Lie, Robin wandered into our studio and I felt a very strong connection to his open, creative view of existence, and the power of music. We instantly started working on some prototypes I had in development at the time and together we launched straight toward something unexpected. 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."

Finck, who recently scored the video games Observation from No Code and NOCT from Devolver Digital, said this:

"Cory is a true and impassioned artist. He’s a visionary leader who draws the highest and best from each person on the team, no matter their position. He’s capable and dedicated and he’s open to forces unspeakable. He’s rare. Weird, even. We connected about films and games and music and all the minutia and it was a really positive charge colliding with him. We have a simpatico work ethic and drive, and we see each other soul to soul. Our play together is inspired.”

Eyes Out’s first game is slated to be a single-player cosmic horror game. More information about the project will arrive soon. Head here to learn more about Eyes Out.
