Narcosis Survival in Pacific ocean Depths
Judging by the trailer of Narcosis, presented to the public on the eve of the release of the game itself, players expect a quality and atmospheric underwater horror. The novelty differs significantly from the stylistics of the classic horror game genre. Narcosis is not like the successful and popular games – Dead Space, Resident Evil 7 Biohazard, Doom 3 or Outlast. But this does not mean that the creators can not surprise us at all. In deep horror, the hero will not be faced with the usual supernatural monsters like zombies, witches, ghosts or embittered mutants. In Narcosis, your main enemies will be oxygen deficiency, pressure, claustrophobia and loneliness, which makes the mind grow turbid and generate very strange visions in the spirit of surrealism. But no one has forgotten about the inhabitants of deep waters: the hero will be met by unusual, but dangerous representatives of the flora and fauna of the Pacific Ocean.
Obviously, Honor Code together with Narcosis managed to bring something new and unique to the game world. The trailer was gloomy and depressing, and the pressure of the water, the fear of enclosed space and uncertainty were felt even on the other side of the screen.
After a major man-made accident the protagonist in Narcosis will act as an industrial diver and learn how to survive in the gloomy depths of the Pacific waters, to reconcile himself to the fact that he was cut off from the surface. The main means of protecting and maintaining the character’s life will be a huge space suit, which weighs almost half a ton. The hero must rise to the surface before he has run out of oxygen. And to do this with a minimal set of tools and practically devoid of light will be very difficult. The torch will not burn forever, the stock of signal rockets is limited, and the knife will not save from all terrible deep-dwelling of fauna and flora. Here, a person will face his most intimate fears – fear of darkness, confined space and loneliness, will fight with panic attacks and approaching insanity.
The game comes out on the platforms of PS4, Xbox One and PC with support for HTC Vive, Oculus Rift. The game engine is Unity, the genre of Narcosis is defined as survival horror, action, quest. The view of the 3D camera is from the first person. The world release of the underwater horror is scheduled for March 28, 2017. Play Narcosis, but remember that oxygen deficiency can free the most terrible monsters from the human mind!
