The creators of the acclaimed Disco Elysium have unveiled their next project, codenamed C4. ZA/UM describes this ambitious title as a "cognitively dissonant spy RPG," a significant departure into unexplored narrative territory. After three years of development, the studio is ready to reveal this enigmatic game, promising a challenge to players' perceptions of reality and morality.
A cryptic 57-second teaser trailer accompanies the announcement. While gameplay remains unseen, the video immerses viewers in a surreal atmosphere, blending striking visuals with a haunting monologue on espionage. This sets the stage for a story rich in secrecy, tension, and psychological complexity.
In C4, players become operatives for a shadowy global power, embroiled in a clandestine struggle for truth and influence. The developers emphasize the protagonist's mind as central—a fragile yet powerful entity, shaped by psychoactive substances and external pressures. This mental landscape acts as both tool and battleground, forcing players to navigate shifting realities and confront the consequences of their decisions.
C4's unique premise and ZA/UM's renowned storytelling promise a thought-provoking RPG. Fans of Disco Elysium and newcomers alike can anticipate an experience pushing the boundaries of interactive narratives, exploring the complex interplay between identity, ideology, and control.
