Developer Pollard Studio has just unveiled Karma: The Dark World, a creepy psychological horror adventure for PS5. Running in Unreal Engine 5, the title certainly looks good — well, as good as dystopian megacorps and nasty body horror can look, we suppose.
You play as a Roam agent named Daniel, whose job involves diving into the minds of others to discover the truth about past events. The story will have you exploring two worlds; the real world, which is an oppressive dystopia, and the harrowing world inside other people's heads. The game has two fairly distinct halves to it, then — one where you'll have to deal with an all-powerful corporation and do its bidding, and the other, which presents you with nightmarish horrors.
There's no release date yet, but it looks pretty promising going by what we've seen so far. Are you interested in Karma: The Dark World? Tell us in the comments section below.

Wow. This is from a Chinese devs? I thought it's from US / EU devs.
Chinese devs really grow better and better every year. I never expect them to rival Japanese or western devs. But it feels like right now they're right behind Japanese / western devs.
Interesting. When you know the censorship in China, it is incredible that such piece of work can be produced.
yes im interested
That’s look promising.
So you’re a detective and you enter peoples minds and waltz around the real world. Isn’t this the game, Observer? The one with Rutger Hauer? Seems like this idea has been used to death.
I am sold. I tend to be a sucker for these type of games.
