Signifier
The PC release date for The Signifier is set for October and we have a new look at what The Signifier will be bringing to us
Add one more title to the list of games coming out in October with the announcement that The Signifier is hitting the PC on the 15th there. This would be that tech-noir title that Playmestudio and Raw Fury that will have us solving some mysteries out there by rebuilding memories of the dead. Yes, you read that correctly just in case you have not been keeping up with The Signifier since the announcement. It looks like it will be a twist and turn of things that will keep us on our toes but we will have to wait and see.
Along with this announcement for The Signifier we also have a new bit of gameplay to look at with more of a breakdown of what is going on. It will be a mix of searching in the game’s real world for clues to then use as the tech rebuilds the memories of the dead. Then we get to explore two versions of the memories to find further clues where we get a solid rebuilt version to replay and then another that tries to rebuild it based on how the victim felt. It sounds interesting and I am still excited to see how it actually works in The Signifier and how much creepier things can get when walking in the memories of the dead.
The Signifier — In Game Developer Preview
Raw Fury and Playmestudio have revealed that <The Signifier, a surreal first-person tech-noir mystery adventure that blends investigation, experimental psychology, and artificial intelligence, will launch on October 15 for Windows PC via Steam and other digital stores.
