Bandai Namco Europe has revealed a first look at gameplay for the narrative action-adventure game, Unknown 9: Awakening. The game is being developed by Reflector Entertainment and is set to release this summer for PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Steam.

Unknown 9: Awakening is a third-person, narrative-driven, action-adventure game that follows the story of Haroona, a Quaestor who can venture into the Fold, a mysterious dimension that overlaps our own. Haroona is on a quest to master her unique connection to the Fold and right the wrongs of her past, while also avoiding the Ascendants, a splinter faction of the Leap Year Society who wants to use the Fold to alter human history.

Players will take on the role of Haroona and will be able to choose whether to ambush opponents from the shadows or fight by stepping into their enemies to control them. The game features a globetrotting journey with a rich and vibrant world for players to enjoy.

The game's cast is led by Anya Chalotra, who portrays Haroona. Chalotra is known for her role as Yennefer in the Netflix series The Witcher.

Unknown 9: Awakening is the key entry point into the Unknown 9 IP's expansive narrative universe, which includes a series of interconnected adventures told across comic books, podcasts, novels, and more. The game will be available this summer 2024.
