The last time we heard from Tequila Works' RIME, things weren't looking up. Sony cut their ties with the game earlier this year after the developer re-acquired the rights to the IP, which threw the question of the title actually releasing into even further mystery. Backed up by the fact that we hadn't seen anything since its announcement, many people began to believe that it would eventually be cancelled.
Thankfully, that isn't the case. Speaking to GameSpot, PR manager Jose Herraez said that the game still exists. "I can confirm that RIME is still in development, advancing at a great pace." He then goes on to say that the studio has actually expanded by 40 per cent, and that can we can expect more information on the game at Gamescom next month.
So, everyone can breath a sigh of relief. Are you happy to hear that RIME is still coming? Let us know in the comments below.

Interesting. I can't comment on what GameSpot were told, but I got the impression from a brief discussion with Tequila Works that it will be showing some new games at Gamescom - but they won't necessarily be RIME.
Worth noting that it's signed up with GameStop's Game Trust program — the same initiative that brought Song of the Deep to life — so it could very well be announcing that game at Gamescom if RIME isn't there.
We'll see.
I'll believe it when I see it but Sony wouldn't have dropped the game for no reason.
Really glad this game is still alive and well,it looks like such a great game would of been a shame to scrap it.Loved the look of this since first announced.These days I don't buy many games cuz I'm overridden with the things but will be buying this day one
Get the feeling this has been through some sort of development hell but glad it's still coming...
I'm looking forward to it!
@get2sammyb Do we know they are working on more games than just RIME?
At this point I'm keeping my expectations low; surprise me!
