Okay, so here’s the thing — Directive 8020 from Supermassive Games is coming to PS5 on October 2. Mark the date or, you know, don’t, and check it out if you want. Whatever suits you.
Right, you might need to confirm your age for a video, because, rules. Something about entering your date of birth. Kinda feels like being back in high school when you had to prove your age for a movie.
From the folks who gave us UNTIL DAWN and THE QUARRY — remember those? Yeah, they’ve got a new cinematic sci-fi horror. It’s like survival gameplay with a twist, and choices, lots of them. Storylines that branch like, I dunno, those old choose-your-adventure books from when I was a kid. Earth’s on the fritz, and Tau Ceti f is this tiny blip of hope, like an oasis in space or something. But when the ship Cassiopeia crash lands, surprise surprise, it ain’t deserted.
Imagine being hunted by aliens that copy what they hunt. Like cosmic copycats. Save yourself or risk everyone back home. Decisions, decisions. Should they stay or should they go?
So, you’ve got this Hollywood star, Lashana Lynch — she’s rocking the role of “Young.” It’s cinematic, and there’s tension you could cut with a knife. Dark space corridors and prowling aliens, all spice up the scene.
Oh, and trust? Haha, that’s gone out the ship’s airlock. ‘Cause that alien? It could be anyone, pretending to be your buddy. Makes you question everything. Who’s human? Who’s alien? And in space, well, let’s just say death has its own style.
Photos here, photos there. Visuals are everywhere for you to feast your eyes on, or whatever.
Alright, so maybe I got carried away. Or distracted. Or both. But there you go, my take on things.
