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 finally ready to reveal this enigmatic game, promising a challenge to players' perceptions of reality and morality.
A cryptic 57-second teaser trailer accompanied the announcement. While gameplay remains unseen, the video immerses viewers in a surreal atmosphere, blending striking visuals with a haunting monologue about espionage. This sets the stage for a story rich in secrecy, suspense, and psychological depth.
In C4, players become operatives for a shadowy global power, drawn into a brutal, clandestine fight for truth and influence. The developers emphasize the protagonist's mind as the game's core—a fragile yet powerful entity, molded by psychoactive substances and external pressures. This mental landscape serves as both a tool and a battlefield, forcing players to navigate shifting realities and confront the consequences of their decisions.
With its unique premise and ZA/UM's proven storytelling prowess, C4 promises a thought-provoking RPG experience. Fans of Disco Elysium and newcomers alike can anticipate a game that pushes the boundaries of interactive storytelling, exploring the complex relationship between identity, ideology, and control.
