The reveal trailer for forthcoming action-adventure game Cosmic has been unveiled today.

Cosmic follows a being named Vik, who winds up losing their shadow. Fortunately, they gain a bigger shadow, which is being hunted by its owner. The gameplay will feature two different playing styles: use the light to unleash the beastly shadow attached to Vik and perform deadly melee combos or use agility and subterfuge to escape danger while in the dark.

Cosmic is developed by King’s Pleasure, which is a new development studio formed by ex-developers of Cyberpunk 2077, Serial Cleaner and Vampire: The Masquerade – Coteries of New York. Feardemic will be publishing the title.

Feardemic CEO’s Scott Millard said this about the title:

“With its unique art style and vibrant color palette, Cosmic is a very welcomed addition to the roster of Feardemic’s 2022 releases. We are confident that the game's fresh style of horror narrative will be far more accessible to a much broader audience of all ages. Horror games, unlike most other video game genres, are nearly always identified on the basis of their narrative direction rather than a gameplay type, and, more often than not, horror hides where you least expect it.”

King’s Pleasure’s founder Łukasz Wiśniewski also chimed in:

“Cosmic represents for us the first opportunity to truly express our creative identity and has been a long-held dream project of mine that encompasses a unique visual style and an engaging story that teems with a wide range of human emotions – fear, empathy, compassion, lostness. I believe this will make Cosmic an experience that resonates with many different kinds of players.”

Cosmic will be released in 2022 on PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S and Nintendo Switch. Cosmic can be wishlisted on Steam right now.
