While most wargames portray blood, death and screaming skies, 11-11: Memories Retold takes a more pensive approach to its depiction of battle. Billed as an "artistic, story-driven narrative adventure", the project set during the First World War marks a collaboration between Bandai Namco, DigixArt and stop-motion clay animation specialists Aardman.

Against a retelling of John McCrae's 1915 poem 'In Flanders Fields', here's a teaser trailer:



Here's David Sproxton, co-founder and executive chairman of Aardman: "Engaging audiences with compelling stories through animation is at the heart of what we do at Aardman. With this project we want to produce an emotionally rich experience with a distinctive visual identity that reflects the sentiment of this narrative. 11-11: Memories Retold is truly an exciting step for us as it marks the first time that Aardman has collaborated on a game of this scale and we’re delighted to see this come to life."

Yoan Fanise, game director at DigixArt, adds: "11-11: Memories Retold is a very special game at many levels. From the painted style to the emotional journey we create for the player to revive their heritage, we are pushing the boundaries of what a game can be and hope it will leave a mark on you."

11-11: Memories Retold is without a hard launch date as yet. More information can be found via the project's Twitter page.
