Twin Mirror is a three-episode psychological thriller from DontNod Entertainment (Life Is Strange) and BANDAI NAMCO Entertainment. It tells the story of investigative journalist Sam Higgs, who returns to Basswood, West Virginia — his hometown — for a friend’s funeral. This is a difficult homecoming. The town holds lots of bad memories and painful feelings. He is reminded of his worst life choices in this place.

But Sam isn’t exactly “alone.” He comes with an inner voice who acts as “occasional advisor and permanent wise-ass.” This is manifested visually as Sam’s duplicate. It represents Sam’s more-or-less hidden self-confidence and his survival instinct. This duality lies at the heart of Twin Mirror.

Sam awakens the day after the funeral to find his shirt covered in blood. He has no memory of what happened. But he does have a unique ability to use an interior experience known as memory visualization, which is referred to as his Mind Palace. This enables Sam to unravel the mysteries he encounters in Basswood.

Episode One of Twin Mirror, entitled Lost on Arrival, will appear sometime in 2019, exact date TBD. The game will be released on Windows, PS4 and Xbox One.
