Italian developer One O One Games alongside META Publishing has revealed a new psychological thriller-horror game called Aftermath. The game is going to release next year in 2022 and will release on PC, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, and PlayStation 4.
In Aftermath, you follow Charlie Gray, a former European astronaut, as she struggles through the remnants of society, in search of her daughter. Driven by its gut-wrenching narrative, Aftermath delves deeply into philosophy and psychology, drawing from the One O One team’s previous experience from games like “The Suicide of Rachel Foster”
The reveal came with the first exclusive look with a 2 min teaser trailer. Check out the trailer below:
You will yourself in new territory when it comes to systems like crafting and combat, things that will need you to get familiar with quickly if you are to survive against the threat hunting for you. When it comes to survival, you will have to think outside of the box, as this threat comes from the mind of the visual arts mast, Alessandro Bavari. He is the creator of Ridley Scott’s Alien: Covenant and Suspiria.
David Gallo, CEO at One O One Games had this to say,
For us at One O One, this is a major goal. To have the chance to develop such an ambitious, innovative title in Italy and we feel lucky to have META Publishing as a partner. META believed in our game, which aims to tell a mature story through survival mechanics, one that’s far away from the standard wilderness settings that these games feature normally. We are excited to let people get in touch with the uncanny world we’re creating and the characters who inhabit it!
While META Publishing CEO Ilya Salamatov added,
We’re extremely excited to be sharing this news with the world today. The team at One O One have created an incredibly layered character in Charlie, the protagonist of the game. She was at the top of the world before the event and even though the odds are stacked against her, she still finds the strength to overcome everything and focus on finding her daughter. The story and experience in Aftermath is truly something unique that we hope people will be talking about for years to come. The combination of visual style, story, soundtrack and gameplay creates a completely unique game that will appeal to a vast amount of gamers across the globe.
