Based on the bestselling books by Jacek Piekara, the story for I, The Inquisitor takes place in an era of the 1500s, In this world, Christ did not die on the cross. Instead, he broke free from his crucifixion and unleashed vengeance on those who did not believe in him. Centuries have passed, and now an army of zealot Inquisitors brutally enforce the faith of this blood-hungry church that has taken hold in Europe.
The game itself centres on the despondent town of Konigstein. There, Mordimer Madderdin, an Inquisitor in service of The Holy Office, arrives to deal with the various crimes and transgressions of the common folk, all while investigating an ancient evil that is trying to take root in the town.
I, The Inquisitor is slated for release on February 8, 2024, on PC via Steam, the Xbox Series, and PlayStation 5.
