Narcosis Surfaces on Xbox One
The spooky goodness that is Narcosis (review) is now available on the Xbox One marketplace and if you have the scratch you’re gonna wanna grab this one ASAP!
From the Press Release:
Franco-Californian game developer Honor Code, Inc.’s debut effort, Narcosis, is available now on Xbox One. Since launching last month on Steam and the Oculus Store, the game has garnered critical acclaim for its abyssal ambience, mind-bending challenges, and subtle, thought-provoking narrative. The “#Safe+Dry“ launch trailer demonstrates some of the surreal sights, sounds and situations encountered in the abyss.
Survival, horror at the sunless depths of the Pacific Ocean. Stranded on the seafloor with low light and few tools, an industrial diver takes desperate steps to surface before his dwindling oxygen — and sanity — give out.
First conceived as a student project, this first person survival story unfolds from inside a “walking coffin” — a half-ton, high-tech deep-sea dive suit — following an industrial catastrophe. Influenced and inspired by a growing appetite for unconventional horror and narrative-driven games, Narcosis is rooted in reality, but steeped in the surreal.
Features:
- Pressure Kills: High-stress situations accelerate oxygen intake, distorting sight, sound, space and time.
- Hostile Waters: A knife, flashlight and flares are essential to surviving the nightmarish flora and fauna of the abyss.
- Phantom Narrative: The survivor’s account unfolds in inexplicable ways alongside the player’s journey.
- Beyond Good and Evil: No shadowy organizations or eldritch terrors at Narcosis’ dark heart, only primal fears and human limits.
