Madmind Studio has finally given those fans keen on diving into the developer’s upcoming psychological horror title Paranoid a release date. Revealed in a new trailer, the full version of Paranoid will be released on December 15 of this year on Steam.

For those who don’t know, Paranoid has been in development ever since it was announced by Madmind way back in 2018. The game tells the story of Patrick Calman, a 31-year-old man who lost his entire family in mysterious circumstances – his parents died brutally, and his sister suddenly disappeared for unknown reasons. The trauma of losing loved ones shattered Patrick’s psyche and turned his apartment into a prison.

The only member of Patrick’s family left alive is his sister, who disappeared more than 10 years ago. One day, he receives a phone call, and the voice in the receiver seems to belong to his lost sibling. She announces her arrival – several years after her disappearance. The whole event forces Patrick to break his previous life of isolation, exposing himself to nightmarish experiences bordering on madness.

Paranoid will allow players to determine the course of Patrick’s story. Depending on the choices, the player will either lock themselves in their apartment with their demons or venture into the city, discovering an alternative course of events. The game can be completed in two ways, showing how the simple decision to stay or leave the apartment profoundly affects the protagonist’s fate.
