Child of Light - Preview of what looks to be a gorgeous game

Easily one of our most anticipated titles coming up in April, Child of Light is a new take on classic fairy tales. The screenshots we have seen so far have a gorgeous watercolor look to them as you take the role of Aurora in her quest to recover the sun, moon and stars that were taken prisoner by the Queen of the Night.

Here Ubisoft has shared an image and trailer of artist Yoshitaka Amano that is certainly worth seeing.

A little more about the game from their website:

The universe : Save the mysterious kingdom of Lemuria from the Queen of the Night, who has stolen the sun, the moon and the stars.

Child of Light is a playable poem complemented with a story carefully crafted in verse and rhyme. Step into a living painting, the breathtaking scenery of Lemuria is an invitation to explore a long lost world.

Created by Ubisoft Montréal using the UbiArt Framework, Child of Light is an RPG inspired by fairy tales.

Across your journey through Lemuria you will encounter many eccentric creatures, from spirits of the forest to talking mice to wicked witches and evil sea serpents. Discover a vast land with iconic locations and exciting dungeons that will evolve as Aurora regains the stolen lights.

Here are some more screenshots of the game:
