Description from the publisher · source

How it plays

It is played from a first person perspective. Its themes are action and horror. It is a single-player game with no multiplayer component.

What you need to run it

The minimum specification calls for Intel Core i5-8400 / AMD Ryzen 5 2600, 16 GB RAM and Nvidia GeForce RTX 2070 or AMD equivalent. A 16GB memory requirement is demanding — worth checking before you buy, because 8GB is still common in older and budget machines. Both tiers are compared side by side on the requirements page, and you can check your own parts against them without installing anything.
