Rare announced Everwild in November 2019 at X019 and we haven't heard much on the game since it was announced. Late last year Simon Woodroffe who worked as the creative director on the game left the studio. 

Gary Napper, who was previously the lead designer on Alien: Isolation, announced via Twitter he has joined Rare as the Design Director on Everwild.

"Thrilled to announce that today I joined Rare as Design Director on Everwild," said Napper. "Really looking forward to making some amazing things with this incredible team and studio."

Napper had also previously worked at Supermassive Games, Sony, Creative Assembly, Criterion, and Electronic Arts.


A life-long and avid gamer, William D'Angelo was first introduced to VGChartz in 2007. After years of supporting the site, he was brought on in 2010 as a junior analyst, working his way up to lead analyst in 2012. He has expanded his involvement in the gaming community by producing content on his own YouTube channel and Twitch channel dedicated to gaming Let's Plays and tutorials.

That's an... odd choice. Unless this person is both passionate about horror and charming games, this could be an indicator that Everwild is edgier than I thought it would be.
