Description:
"The Medium" is a third-person psychological horror game where players take on the role of a medium, exploring dark secrets that can only be unraveled by someone with the ability to communicate with the spiritual realm. As a medium, you navigate both the physical and spiritual worlds simultaneously, using your unique psychic abilities to solve mysteries that span across these two realms and reveal unsettling truths.
Highlights of the game include its innovative dual-world game design and an original soundtrack composed by Arkadiusz Reikowski from Bloober Team, along with renowned composer Akira Yamaoka, famous for his work on the "Silent Hill" series. The game promises a gripping experience as players embody a medium with extraordinary talents.
Playing as a medium, you will employ your innate psychic abilities to explore or traverse between the realms of reality and the spiritual. Through out-of-body experiences, you can reach places inaccessible to the physical body. Additionally, you can generate energy shields and release powerful energy waves to escape threats posed by malevolent spirits and other dangers from the supernatural realm.
Uncover Hidden Secrets
Immerse yourself in a complex narrative with ambiguous moral boundaries. The story goes beyond surface appearances, and as a medium, your heightened senses will alter your perception of the events at the Niwa Resort. Each new perspective gained will change your understanding of the unfolding mystery.
Simultaneously Explore Two Worlds
The patented dual-world game design allows players to explore both the real and spiritual worlds simultaneously. Interacting with both realms reveals the enigmatic puzzles of this dual reality, opening new directions to uncover the truth and awaken forgotten memories.
Enter the Dark World Inspired by Zdzisław Beksiński
The spiritual world in "The Medium" reflects the darker aspects of the real world. Here, sins that escape punishment, evil impulses, and detestable secrets are laid bare and given form. The game draws inspiration from the works of Polish painter Zdzisław Beksiński, known for his unique and terrifying dark art style. Beksiński was a Polish dystopian surrealist painter internationally acclaimed for his distinctive horror-inspired creations.
Arkadiusz Reikowski and Akira Yamaoka's Collaborative Music
Immerse yourself in the unsettling and oppressive atmosphere of the game with the music composed by Arkadiusz Reikowski and Akira Yamaoka. Yamaoka, a legendary Japanese composer famous for the "Silent Hill" series, collaborates with Reikowski, a Hollywood Music in Media Awards nominee known for his work on various horror games, including "Layers of Fear," "Blair Witch," and "Observer." The game's soundtrack is a collaborative masterpiece from these two maestros.
