Update: Soul Axiom didn’t make it for a 2015 launch but it should hit Steam on February 29. An Xbox One version should follow shortly according to the developers.
From the makers of Infinity Runner, Wales Interactive, comes Soul Axiom – a psychologically-motivated adventure title.
In the world of Soul Axiom, Elysia, a system by which you can upload your soul, has been developed and released. There is no death, only presenting a boundless dreamscape.
Wales Interactive presents a new first-person sci-fi adventure game that will take you on a journey through the deepest darkest recesses of your soul. Prepare yourself for intrigue and danger on your mission to unlock your identity, your story, your mystery.
This sets the scene to a place where you must explore digital life.
Here are some of the features you can expect in the Xbox One version of Soul Axiom;
Psychological Adventure with Exploration & Puzzle elements: Interact with cryptic logic puzzles, make psychological decisions and explore memories to unlock the secrets of your identity.
Harness the abilities of Elysia: Discover new powers that will assist exploration and puzzle solving by phasing, building, destroying or corrupting.
Unique visual style: There is a beautifully simplistic emphasis on striking shapes, strong colours, and beautiful effects and lighting to elicit a variety of emotions within The Elysia.
Compelling storyline: A tense, but thought-provoking narrative with multiple outcomes, and leaves you yearning to explore all avenues of the lore.
Dynamic adaptive environments: Use your abilities to manipulate your surrounding environments. Collect your powers and re-visit memories to unlock previously hidden areas.
Packed full of content: With 6 chapters consisting of around 40 unique locations, expect between 8-12 hours of thrilling gameplay with the full release.
Atmospheric soundtrack: Provides the perfect musical backdrop which subtly enhances the game through well-crafted association with the memories you explore.
Soul Axiom is available now on Steam, and will release on Xbox One later this year.
