Despite all the dune buggies in the teaser trailer, it's not There, but Everywhere. However, detailed information about it exists nowhere — except, that is, in the studio of Build A Rocket Boy, founded former Rockstar North head Leslie Benzies. The montage video shows glimpses of many environments and some Fortnite-type combat, and from what a game industry reporter could glean, it's going to be a metaverse-ish platform of some kind:
[Everywhere assistant director] Adam Whiting said it's "not just a place to play, but to watch, share, create, hang out with your friends, and so much more." So yeah, probably some kind of Roblox or Second Life.
To judge by the graphics (which look to me like Unreal), it's more in the former camp — for gamers who grew up on Roblox but want better graphics and creating/social tools. So more likely, perhaps, to be in a similar category as Core. (Read more about Core here.) But we'll need to see where Eveywhere goes.
