KARMA: The Dark World Arrives on Xbox Series Consoles This September
Publisher Wired Productions and developer Pollard have announced that their psychological horror title, KARMA: The Dark World, is set to launch on Xbox Series X|S on September 10. The game is already available for players on PC via Steam, Epic Games Store, and GOG, as well as on PlayStation 5.
Set in an unsettling alternate East Germany in 1984, KARMA: The Dark World plunges players into a world dominated by the ominous "Leviathan" corporation. This powerful entity enforces a strict surveillance state, dividing society into rigid classes and keeping its citizens sedated with drugs. Players step into the shoes of a Leviathan agent, tasked with diving deep into the minds of the accused and investigating crime scenes. Your duties will include interrogating suspects and meticulously reporting your findings to the corporation.
A Deep Dive into Atmosphere and Abstract Horror
KARMA: The Dark World has garnered attention for its distinctive artistic approach. Our reviewer, Maxim Zakharchuk, praised the game, giving it a "Praiseworthy" rating. He highlighted it as an excellent choice for players who, much like filmmaker David Lynch, believe that absolute understanding in art is often overrated. If you're someone who can appreciate the vivid imagery and unrestrained imagination of a work like Lovecraft's "The Dream-Quest of Unknown Kadath" even if the narrative isn't perfectly linear, then this game is designed for you.
Fans of walking simulators and dystopian narratives will find KARMA: The Dark World particularly appealing, as it delivers a thick, immersive atmosphere. However, players should be prepared that the game doesn't aim to provide clear-cut answers to every question, instead inviting them to revel in its enigmatic world. For a global audience, the game also includes Russian subtitles, ensuring broader accessibility.
With its arrival on Xbox Series consoles, more players will now have the opportunity to experience this unique blend of psychological horror, dystopian themes, and atmospheric exploration. Prepare to step into a chilling 1984 and unravel the dark secrets of Leviathan.
