The creators of the acclaimed Disco Elysium have unveiled their next project, codenamed C4, described by ZA/UM as a "cognitively dissonant spy RPG." This ambitious title represents a significant departure, venturing into uncharted 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 accompanies the announcement. While gameplay remains unseen, the video immerses viewers in a surreal and atmospheric world, underscored by a haunting monologue on espionage. It establishes a tone of secrecy, tension, and psychological complexity.
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 central—a fragile yet powerful entity, shaped by psychoactive substances and external pressures. This mental landscape acts as both a tool and a battleground, forcing players to navigate shifting realities and confront the ramifications of their decisions.
C4's unique premise and ZA/UM's renowned storytelling promise a thought-provoking RPG experience. Fans of Disco Elysium and newcomers alike can anticipate a game pushing the boundaries of interactive narratives, exploring the complex interplay of identity, ideology, and control.
