Uitgever Secret Mode en ontwikkelaar Cosmonaut Studios gaan de verhaalgedreven first person puzzelgame Eternal Threads ook uitbrengen op de consoles. Dat heeft de ontwikkelaar bekendgemaakt met de onderstaande console trailer.
Eternal Threads is een single player first person puzzelgame met een focus op het verhaal. De keuzes die je maakt, hebben impact op het verloop van het verhaal. Jij moet de keuzes die anderen maken, manipuleren om de juiste einde te bereiken. Hiervoor krijg je 7 dagen de tijd voor. Jij bepaalt wat je doet in het huis en hoe je het verhaal gaat vormgeven. Ieder persoon in het huis heeft een eigen interessant verhaal.
Dit zijn de key features van Eternal Threads volgens de ontwikkelaar:
- The complete narrative follows the six main characters through multiple decisions across multiple timelines and you can experience these in any way you choose. You can concentrate on just one particular character’s storyline at a time, following their choices across the timelines and then go back to the start and follow another character.
- You can approach the story like a forensic detective, observe the final outcomes of the story and then work backwards along the timeline – essentially observing the effects and then determining their cause.
- Or you can just watch things in chronological order, experiencing the timeline unfold as you observe and change the decisions that the characters face as the week progresses.
- Watch and Change Things as Many Times as You Like – Can’t remember exactly what happened in an event? Changed a decision and you’re not sure you like the consequences? That’s fine. Just pop back along the timeline and watch and change whatever you like, whenever you like, as many times as you like.
- Change the Past to Affect the Future – Setting up temporary base in the house mere hours after the fire, provides a unique perspective on events. As you look back through the timeline, past events play out in front of you in ghostly form, with the smoke and fire damaged house a constant reminder of what is to come. In addition, as you manipulate the past, the environment can be reset around you to match the changes taking place. Some new objects will appear, others will move around the house and the contents of rooms can change substantially as you change the past.
Eternal Threads is al verkrijgbaar op de PC. De game is vanaf 23 mei 2024 ook speelbaar op de PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series S, Xbox Series X en de Nintendo Switch.
