It is unclear how many of the aforementioned features-or lack thereof-will remain as development continues. Studio head Craig Duncan mentioned that Rare had not discussed Everwild publicly because it is still "playing around with gameplay ideas," particularly on "building an experience that allows for new ways to play in a natural and magical world." The game was reportedly shaping up to be a "third-person adventure with god-game elements" last year however, after leadership mandated that there be no combat in the game, complications begun to arise in the design. There are around 25 publicly confirmed Everwild developers, although the current team is closer to 50 people with plans to grow to a much larger size. The game's lead designer is former Lionhead designer James Blackham, who joined Rare from Square Enix last year specifically to work on the game. Rare's studio art director, Ryan Stevenson, is helming the visual direction for the project, having previously led art for Viva Piñata and Sea of Thieves. According to people with knowledge of Everwild's development, the game's design has essentially been "restarted from scratch." In addition, leadership shifted to executive producer, Louise O'Connor, whose previous credits include Viva Piñata and Kinect Sports. Rare had started their pre-production for Everwild in 2016 with Simon Woodroffe, the game's initial creative director, whose last project was Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed, until his departure from the company, which led to a complete overhaul of the game's design and direction, as well as significant changes to its senior leadership.
