Daedalic has officially unveiled its upcoming horror title, The Occultist, set to launch on PC in 2025. To mark this exciting announcement, the publisher has released a cinematic trailer that captures the eerie essence of the game.
Gameplay and Features
In The Occultist, players will step into the shoes of Alan Rebels, navigating a world steeped in mystery and dread through a first-person perspective. The game incorporates stealth mechanics, challenging players to use cunning and strategy rather than brute force. Alan’s journey will revolve around the enigmatic mystic pendulum, a tool that aids him in uncovering the dark secrets surrounding GodStone.
True to the survival horror genre, the game promises an immersive experience characterized by:
- Tense exploration
- A gripping atmosphere
- An intimate narrative that draws players closer to the story
According to the developers, Alan will consistently evade direct combat, relying instead on his stealth skills to progress through the narrative without falling prey to unforeseen dangers.
While the cinematic trailer may not showcase any in-game sequences, which some gamers might find disappointing, the Steam store page offers a glimpse of in-game action through a GIF, providing a taste of what’s to come.
As anticipation builds, fans are encouraged to stay tuned for further updates on this spine-chilling adventure.
