CBE Software is a very small development team working out of the Czech Republic. After five years of work and development, the pair of friends have fully realized their dream and released Someday You'll Return on the PC. This new psychological horror title will come to other platforms such as the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One later this year.
Someday You'll Return is out now through Steam for 10% off of its regular $34.99 (USD) price.
This narrative-driven horror title focuses on the ideas of "fatherhood, fears, lies, and the refusal to accept one's past." As Daniel, you are searching for your missing daughter, Stela. As you continue your search, you will have to face some demons from your past and a place you swore you'd never return to, the Moravian forests.
“Five years ago, Lukas (Medek, CBE Software co-founder) and I came up with an idea. We wanted to set our next game into our Czech homeland, populate it with local legends and folklore and show the world places we experienced as children. We wanted gamers to experience how it feels to walk through the beautiful nature of our country while experiencing very Jungian psychological horror.
It has taken five years since that fateful decision to bring you Someday You’ll Return, a game about family, home, and relationships but also about the intimate fears we all have. We hope you enjoy it.†- Jan Kavan, CBE Software co-founder.
