OBSERVER: System Redux
The award-winning dystopian thriller comes to physical on July 16th ​​​​​​​

For the First time on PS4™ and Xbox One and Xbox One X

Munich/Kraków, - May 06th, 2021: Today, the independent games developer team of Bloober Team and Koch Media, a leading global publishing partner announce the release of Observer: System Redux, the award-winning cyberpunk thriller on PC, PS5™, Xbox and for the first time, on PS4™ the Xbox One and Xbox One X from July 16th on its physical version. Released as a Day One Edition including the game, softcover artbook as well as a soundtrack for 29,99 Euro, 24,99 Pounds and 29,99 US Dollars at retail.
 
OBSERVER: System Redux is the definitive vision of the award-winning cyberpunk thriller, rebuilt and augmented for the next generation. The year is 2084. The future has turned out much darker than anyone could imagine. First, there was the Nanophage. A digital plague that killed thousands upon thousands of those who chose to augment their minds and bodies. Then came the War, leaving both the West and the East decimated and shattered. With no one left to seize power, corporations took over and forged their own crooked empires.
 
You are a tool of corporate oppression. Feared and despised, you hack into the darkest corners of your suspects’ minds. You creep into their dreams, expose their fears, and extract whatever your investigation may require. You are an Observer.
 
System Redux
Veteran Observers can dive deeper into this dystopian reality thanks to three brand-new side cases to solve. “Errant Signal”, “Her Fearful Symmetry” and “It Runs in the Family” add another layer of depth to the game’s story while exploring thought-provoking themes of a future that soon might become our present.
 
On top of that, System Redux offers expanded gameplay, which includes new game mechanics, new secrets to find, redesigned stealth, additional neural interrogations, and quality-of-life improvements made with the help of the Observer community.
 
Newcomers get the chance to experience one of the most thrilling cyberpunk stories in all its next-gen glory: boasting 4K resolution, upgraded textures, new animations, models and effects, and transformed with jaw-dropping Ray-Tracing and HDR lighting.

YEAR 2084 / BECOME AN OBSERVER / EAT THEIR DREAMS
Virtual realities, mind-altering drugs, neural implants…Dive deep into a world where life is cheap and hope is scarce. You are Daniel Lazarski – an elite investigator of the future, portrayed by late cyberpunk icon

Rutger Hauer. Using a device known as the Dream Eater, hack into people’s minds to extract clues and evidence.
