Is Tchia Open World? – Answered

Game looks promising, that's for sure!

On March 21, 2023, Tchia will be released on multiple gaming platforms. It’s an adventure game that got inspired by New Caledonia, the homeland of the developers. You know, that remote place in the Pacific, east of Australia?

The devs have said that you will be able to set sail across the archipelago, customize your boat, and become a coconut (no, this is probably not an homage to Pickle Rick) or play the famous Ukulele. The game name Tchia comes from the name of the heroine you will be playing as.

Will Tchia Be an Open-World Game?

Tchia will have many elements of cultural heritage and customs from New Caledonia. The developers have stated that they have made efforts to implement iconic landmarks and flora and fauna that are endemic to New Caledonia, and they even went as far as to do the dialogue in their native languages which locals voice! That’s a truly inspiring story, of which you can learn more on the PlayStation Blog here, here, and here.
