>observer_ news & patch notes

Dear fans of the classic, dark Cyberpunk! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/28915901/41b27014eb96a7b974212a0ba1fa5aed63f95182.jpg We are pleased to announce that the launch of Observer System Redux is just around the corner. The game will be available to all PC players on November 10! System Redux elevates the original Observer and its dark cyberpunk atmosphere with a full set of next-gen technologies: boasting 4K resolution, upgraded textures, new animations, models, and effects. Of course, Observer: System Redux is so much more than jaw-dropping visuals. It brings a wide range of gameplay enhancements, new game mechanics, new secrets to find, redesigned stealth, additional neural interrogations, and quality-of-life improvements made with the help of the Observer community. On top of that, System Redux offers three new missions featuring brand-new storylines. “Errant Signal”, “Her Fearful Symmetry” and “It Runs in the Family” add another layer of depth to the game’s story while exploring thought-provoking themes of a future that soon might become our present. Considered one of the scariest games currently available, System Redux is the definitive thriller tale. More information can be found on the official product page on Steam.

Bloober Team, the makers of Blair Witch, Observer and Layers of Fear, today announces its largest and most ambitious project to date - The Medium. The Medium is a tension-fuelled, psychological horror game built around a central motif: how your perspective changes your perception. https://youtu.be/tTAz758Vt88 Players will find themselves in the body of Marianne, a medium hounded by visions, living and interacting across two worlds: the real, and the spirit world. Nothing is what it seems, everything has another side. As a medium with access to both worlds, you have a wider perspective and can see more clearly that there’s no one simple truth to what others perceive. “Every one of our games has a central theme that drives its creative and technological design. In The Medium, we focus on perspective and perception. When you change your point of view, you discover that things are more complicated and nuanced than you initially thought" - said Piotr Babieno, CEO at Bloober Team. "The Medium is our most ambitious game ever and we can't wait to show you how we're translating this vision into a psychological horror.” The legendary composer Akira Yamaoka and Bloober Team’s Arkadiusz Reikowski are working together on the game’s original ‘dual’ score, creating truly unique atmospheres across both worlds. https://store.steampowered.com/app/1293160/The_Medium/ Follow us, check the official website, and add to your wishlist!
