Montreal Based developer Playmind has just announced their psychological horror game The Inner Friend, which is making its way to consoles this month on April 28. The game will launch for both Xbox One and PlayStation 4.
The game was originally released back in 2018 for PC, however, the console version will include a new alternate ending.
Emmanuel Sevigny, who is the CEO of Playmind had this to say about The Inner Friend,
We at Playmind are very excited to be able to share our game with a brand new audience on Xbox One and Playstation 4. While we are very proud of the accolades The Inner Friend has received, we think the best validation of our work comes from our fans that have allowed us to continue to make games. We can’t wait to welcome another wave of enthusiastic players to our community.
The Inner Friend is all about your journey in the deeper levels of the subconscious to unravel a rich but wordless story, where you will encounter gruesome beings that you must evade. Dive into a unique and eerie world to relive the Shadow’s childhood memories and overcome them to restore what was once a safe haven.
The Inner Friend features a rich visual environment, supported by an immersive soundscape and a cinematic soundtrack enhancing immersion and emotional moments. Movement, imagery, and music are the main ways for the player to interact with the Shadow, their guide throughout the descent. Dark and scary, mysterious at times, the world of The Inner Friend is a surrealist representation of memories and fears.
Here are some of the key features of The Inner Friend:
- Immersive Storytelling – Immerse yourself in a visually-driven narrative with a minimalist interface.
- An Eerie Adventure – Journey through a surreal world inspired by childhood nightmares and psychology.
- Diverse Gameplay Mechanics – Overcome obstacles, solve puzzles and defeat nightmarish foes.
