Despite missing its previously-announced October 25 release date, indie developer HOOK’s dark narrative adventure game EDENGATE: The Edge of Life is finally out now on PC via Steam, PlayStation 4 and the Xbox One.
Written by award-winning writer Matthew Seiji Burns, director/writer of the critically acclaimed visual novel Eliza, EDENGATE: The Edge of Life sees players in the shoes of Mia, a promising young biologist who wakes up to find herself in an abandoned hospital, with no memory of the events leading up to her awakening. With no other signs of life around her, Mia tries to piece together the events that brought her to the hospital and unravel the mystery of the city of Edengate, which is now mysteriously desolate.
Featuring a haunting soundtrack composed by Laryssa Okada, who also wrote the soundtrack for the first-person puzzler Manifold Garden, EDENGATE is touted as being a fusion of exploration, investigation, puzzle solving and meaningful decision-making. The concept and development of EDENGATE were formed during the most difficult months of the pandemic, with the development team harnessing the fear, isolation and uncertainty of the future they experienced during this time, using that to convey these emotions through EDENGATE’s gameplay and narrative.
