Shroud and Sacriel are the latest content creators to team up with a game developer to support a new project, with “Project Astrid” set to combine the thoughts and ideas of both streamers and the Splash Damage team to create the new game.

Shroud announced the news on his Twitter account on Thursday, with the title “It’s finally happening… We’re making a game”.

In the announcement, shroud added that it’s been his dream to make his own game and that his goal is to “build the best game ever”.

Through the announcement video, shroud explains that he feels his community wants to see a new game prioritise the importance of gunplay, and that Sacriel and himself “have refined a vision for what’s next in the survival genre”.

Sacriel also mentioned his dream of “going onto Twitch and seeing people playing a game that I have been a part of,” with “Project Astrid” seeing two streamers collaborate with Splash Damage to create a game of their dreams.

“We have the ability to do something really new in survival, build an IP from the ground up,” said Splash Damage creative director Lance Winter.

“Hopefully, this will be a one-in-a-million chance”.

Shroud and Sacriel will serve as executive creators, providing “new insights into what fans and creators actually want from their gaming experiences”, Winter said.

Splash Damage has only released two multiplayer games since their inception in 2001: Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory and Enemy Territory: Quake Wars.

The company has, however, worked on a number of franchises, including Doom, Gears of War and Halo.

“I am back, baby!” Shroud said on Twitch.

Sentinels also confirmed the news on their official Twitter page, giving esports enthusiasts the confirmation they needed.

“The legend returns and he��s here to win @shroud joins the Sentinels Valorant roster,” Sentinels tweeted.

Following the announcement made by Hunter “SicK” Mims that he would be taking?a prolonged time off work due to health issues and would not be completing the rest of the season, the squad was in need of a fifth member. Compared?to the previous?year, Sentinels have had a difficult time in the VCT and have thus fallen out on their early opportunities to compete for Champions.

Shroud last embraced the esport scene by playing for the Cloud9 Counter-Strike: Global Offensive team from 2014 to 2017. After that, he left the team��s roster and started streaming, before he completely left the organization.

Shroud will be making his way onto the ever-growing list of CS: GO players to have made the switch to Valorant. Some of the competitive players who are on this list include Spencer “Hiko” Martin, Adil “ScreaM” Benrlitom, and Tyson “TenZ” Ngo.?

Although Shroud has not competed in professional Valorant besides streaming, reports says the 28-year-old will be playing in the North American Valorant Champions Tour if the team qualifies for the NA LCQ, which is scheduled for August.
