Lost Records: Bloom and Rage Delayed to Early 2025
DON’T NOD’s Lost Records: Bloom and Rage has been delayed and will launch in early 2025 for PS5, Xbox Series X/S and PC. The narrative adventure was slated for later this year but is arriving later to avoid clashing with Life is Strange: Double Exposure.
Speaking to Actusnews Wire, CEO Oskar Guilbert said, “We know that many of our fans are eagerly awaiting this game, just as they are the recently announced next installment of Life is Strange. Let’s give both titles the space they need to be enjoyed by our players within the large community we have built.
“We firmly believe the wait for Bloom and Rage will be worth it. We look forward to sharing this new adventure, which we hope will become another memorable chapter in the DON’T NOD universe.”
Lost Records: Bloom and Rage comprises two parts set in 1995 and 2022. The story sees four friends – Swann, Nora, Kat and Autumn – who face an “unexplained event” and spiral downwards. After splitting up, they reunite nearly three decades later, presumably to face their demons.
Though it will play similarly to Life is Strange 1 and 2 (both developed by DON’T NOD), there are some new elements, like playing in both timelines. Decisions from the present can affect and vice versa. Swann’s camcorder also plays a “big part” and can be used for puzzle-solving. The development team also seeks a “slightly more interactive and naturalistic” dialogue system to allow for “much more urgency.” Stay tuned for further updates on its release date in the coming months.
