1/7/2024 0 Comments Shards of war trailerWith Aluna: Sentinel of the Shards, I wanted to change that.”Īluna: Sentinel of the Shards will see us following the exploits of Aluna, the warrior daughter of a Spanish conquistador and South American nature goddess Pachamama. Yet there’s so many Latino women who play games and read comics, who never see themselves reflected in the media they admire. “Latino women are seldom given starring roles, especially when it comes to superhero comics and video games. “Aluna has been a very personal project for me,” said Aluna creator and actress Paula Garces. There’s such a rich cultural history to explore there, and as much as we’ve enjoyed making the comic book series, we wanted to truly immerse our audience in a fully realized world that they could explore firsthand.” “We’ve seen plenty of games about Greek and Norse mythology, but little representation for Inca lore. “One of our goals when we created Aluna was to bring the world of 16th Century Latin America to life,” said Digiart Interactive founder Antonio Hernandez. Starring comic book creator and actress Paula Garces (Harold & Kumar series, On My Block, The Shield) as Incan demigod Aluna, and created by Garces and Antonio Hernandez in response to the underrepresentation of both latino and female superheroes in comics, Aluna went on to become a cult hit and is currently starring in the ongoing comic book saga, The World of Aluna.Īluna further made a name for herself in video games after becoming a playable character in S2 Games’ popular MOBA Heroes of Newerth, where she was played by Paula Garces herself. The latest video for Aluna: Sentinel of the Shards can be viewed below these words, and in it we get to watch the beloved comic book character battle her way through 16th Century Latin America, prior to launching for real on Xbox One, PS4, Nintendo Switch and PC at some point in 2020. Well, today we find a new trailer being unveiled – one that brings the Inca mythology-based action RPG to life. It was back in September when we told you that Digitart Interactive and N-Fusion Interactive were bringing Aluna to live with Aluna: Sentinel of the Shards on Xbox One, PS4, PC and Nintendo Switch.
