Oh baby, a new cyberpunk game is rapidly approaching release. What's more is the fact that this one has some horror themes blended in with the cyberpunk. The game is Observer (stylized as >observer_) and it is slated to be released on the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC on August 15. Bloober Team, the studio that created Layers of Fear is the development team working on Observer.The game features Rutger Hauer (Roy Batty in Blade Runner) as Detective Dan Lazarski. The game says that what you see will disturb you and well, I actually hope that's just not them over selling the game.
Story
The year is 2084. If you somehow survived the Nanophage, odds are you were killed in the War. Those who live have turned to drugs, VR, neural implants — anything to distract themselves from this new reality. You are Daniel Lazarski, an elite neural detective known as an Observer, and part of a corporate-funded police unit whose purpose is to hack and invade suspects’ minds. In this future, anything you think, feel, or remember can be used against you in a court of law.
When you receive a mysterious message from your estranged son, a high-level engineer for the almighty Chiron Corporation, you journey to the Class C slums of Krakow to investigate. But as you hack into the unstable minds of criminals and victims to look for clues, you are forced relive their darkest fears. How far will you go to discover the truth?
Key Features
• Hack into the twisted minds of criminals and their victims as you traverse a surreal landscape, uncovering meaning behind imagery
• Unique cyberpunk setting, as players find themselves in 2084 AD, Krakow, Poland
• Genre-defining "hidden horror" gameplay in an unsettling, dark atmosphere, placing an emphasis on deeper primal terror over jump scares

You can check out more at the Observer website (I am WARNING you right now that this site auto-played a video at full volume when I loaded it up. My eardrums are still ringing. Consider this your warning in case it happens to you!) or on Steam if you're eyeing up the PC release of the game.
