(Image credit: Studio Reset) The game, made in Unreal Engine 5, will purportedly mix "supernatural mystery, mature narrative themes, fixed-camera 3D exploration, agent-driven investigation, and a word-based deduction system to create a detective fantasy around case files, redacted truths, and the uncomfortable space between what happened and what people are able to understand," the press release continues.

This smudgy game made up of frowning characters in long coats sounds like mystical, cigar-puffing fun. Lacuna tells GamesRadar+, "I don't think in any of my previous experiences working on big, multi-million-dollar projects, they would ever greenlight an aesthetic that I am interested in achieving here."

"Like, this painterly [visual] effect would not exist," Lacuna continues, noting, "It exists in the indie world, in the space. It does not exist in the AAA space, and I think that that for me is a great opportunity."

"AAA can throw money at a problem," Lavallee adds, cutting a deeper line between Studio Reset and its developers' BioWare past. "Money, people, and it'll get sorted out. Is it the right solution? Is it the most fun result? Debatable. We can't do that. It's just us" – a team prioritizing creative freedom over all else.
