Developer Bonsai Collective has released a new trailer for their in-development Cosmic Horror shooter Luna Abyss. Debuting just ahead of its GDC appearance later this week, the new Luna Abyss trailer provides a better look at the game’s environments, demonstrating many of the game’s locations in full detail for the first time.

Described as a “narrative-driven, first-person action-adventure game”, Luna Abyss puts you as a prisoner sentenced to explore a derelict megastructure that sprawls deep beneath the surface of the mimic moon Luna. Tasked with recovering technology from within the megastructure and what happened to the colony, you’ll be monitored on your mission by the artificial prison guard know as Aylin. However, you soon find out that Aylin isn’t the only one watching you.

“With every trailer we put out, it’s exciting to reveal just a little bit more of what we have in store,” says Benni Hill, Creative Director at Bonsai Collective. “The whole team gets a buzz from seeing the reaction of gamers across the internet, which makes putting the pieces together of this narrative-driven bullet-hell FPS even more rewarding.”

For those who are attending GDC this year, you can catch a glimpse of Luna Abyss in action on the Epic Games stand this Wednesday 22nd to Friday 24th. Luna Abyss is currently in development for PC via Steam, alongside PlayStation and Xbox consoles.

Publisher Gamera Games and developer Pollard Studio have teamed with Wired Productions (the folks who brought us Martha is Dead) to release the psychological horror game KARMA: The Dark World. The game, which has been in development since 2021, is currently slated for a release on PC via Steam and the Epic Games Store, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series. No release date has been announced.

In a press release, Wired Productions managing director Leo Zullo stated that they saw something special with KARMA: The Dark World. “It evokes, emotions and provokes players to think, feel and question everything. Pollard Studio wanted to create an intense cinematic experience, and I’m delighted we’re able to work so closely with them. It’s truly an exciting game that I can’t wait to reveal more about.”

Described as a first-person cinematic psychological thriller set in a dystopian world, KARMA: The Dark World takes place in East Germany, 1984. Players take on the role of Daniel McGovern, a Roam Agent for the omnipresent Leviathan Corporation’s Thought Bureau. You have been brought in to investigate actions that have happened in a very specific moment in time. To do so, Daniel infiltrates the memories of suspects to retrace their steps and piece together his investigations. In doing so, Daniel uncovers fragmented memories of his own lurking within the shadows.

As a Roam investigation officer, you work at night, completing the tasks given by the corporation in complete stealth. Your identity as a Roam Agent is intimidating, giving you leverage to gain entry. Using a combination of investigative tools and their own intellect, players must solve puzzles in order to unravel the truth. Diving into peoples’ minds will have you encountering hallucinations and randomly-changing environments. You have to pay attention to the time and space of your location, as well as observe and spot key personnel and events in order to find your way.
