There’s a lot going on in Past Cure. Developer Phantom 8 Studio has described it as “Inception meets Fight Club meets John Wick.” It offers an intense, story-driven experience.

You play Ian, an ex-elite soldier. Held in imprisonment and tortured for years, Ian has undergone military experiments that have left him with supernatural powers such as thought manipulation, telekinesis and astral projection. He never wanted any of this.

The experiments have fractured his grip on reality. And every time he uses his powers, his madness grows.

Ian wants revenge (and I don’t blame him). With the help of his brother Marcus and female double-agent Sophia, he intends to hunt down those who have done this to him and put them on the receiving end of the powers they’re given him.

Past Cure takes place in two worlds: Ian’s nightmares/hallucinations and the actual, waking world. Each has its own set of rules and mechanics.

Ian ultimately comes to realize that his true enemy — darker than any he could have imagined — may be hiding within his own madness.

Past Cure is to be released February 23, 2018 on Windows (Steam), Xbox One and PS4 (can be pre-ordered here).
