Dionous Games and X INTERACTIVE had a quick turnaround from the recent Steam Next Fest with their horror adventure title Inner Voice. After debuting the demo during the event, the game is out now on Steam (with a limited-time 20% launch discount), GOG, and the Epic Games Store. Releases on the PlayStation 5 and the Xbox Series are also planned.
Focusing on narrative discovery rather than combat, the game blends exploration, story-driven puzzles, and immersive audiovisual design. Inner Voice has players taking on the role of Booker, a man haunted by the loss of his wife, Diana, and drawn into a place abandoned by time and reason. With no weapons, no allies, and no clear answers, Booker must navigate decaying spaces, follow the echo of a mysterious voice, and piece together the truth buried within this fractured world.
Players move through large, detailed environments that combine discovery with linear story progression. You must inspect spaces to uncover environmental clues, memories, and hidden narrative threads. Puzzles are woven directly into the world and narrative, serving as gateways to the game’s lore. Solving them reveals fragments of Booker’s past, the nature of the world around him, and the meaning behind the choices players make along the way.
Depending on your actions through the game’s four chapters, you’ll arrive at one of three story endings, with one secret ending.
