Our graphic design team handled the layout and packaging art design for the PS4 title, Death’s Gambit. Death’s Gambit is an action role-playing game that harkens back to pixel art style of the 16-bit video game era. The combat gameplay centers heavily around mechanically intensive battles; the skill-based bosses require players to think outside the box with their customizable arsenal. Although the in-game art style is stylized pixel art, we went with a very different direction for the cover packaging and disc art. Finer character details can be difficult to discern with 16-bit graphics, so we used the disc + packaging art as an opportunity to show detailed looks at the game’s characters. The back of the cover packaging does show some in-game footage including environments, playable classes, weapons, and enemies. Game packaging art is an essential part of marketing the physical release of your title, so reach out to WAYPOINT for more information on how we can help with your next release!
