Last August, Child of Light creative director Patrick Plourde posted a photo that many interpreted as a sequel tease. That was actually a “four or five page” document that details a prequel, which he now regrets sharing.

Plourde shared those ideas for a prequel while speaking with VGC. It would be about childhood friends growing apart as they become adults.
