Solve the mystery of a desolate city in this pandemic-inspired dark narrative adventure.
Milan, Italy – 29th November 2022. Indie publishing label HOOK is thrilled to announce that EDENGATE: The Edge of Life, the chilling, internally developed dark narrative adventure launches today for Xbox One for £5.89 GBP / $6.99 USD / €6.99 EUR (prices may vary slightly depending on store and region). EDENGATE: The Edge of Life is also out now on PC via Steam and PlayStation 4.
Written by award-winning writer Matthew Seiji Burns, Director/Writer of the critically acclaimed visual novel Eliza, EDENGATE: The Edge of Life takes players on an emotional journey through the eyes 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. The concept and development of the game were formed during the most difficult months of the pandemic and is a representation of the fear, isolation and uncertainty in the future that the development team felt during this time. Their hope is to convey these emotions through EDENGATE’s emotional narrative and gameplay experience enhanced by a haunting soundtrack composed by Laryssa Okada, composer for the renowned Manifold Garden.
