Supermassive Games returns to its roots with Directive 8020, a horror and science fiction title that embraces 90s aesthetics. The story follows the crew of the spaceship Cassiopeia, which crashes on Tau Ceti and must deal with an alien threat that sows paranoia. The game promises constant tension and a claustrophobic atmosphere reminiscent of genre classics like Alien.
Unreal Engine 5 and the Realism of Digital Faces 🎮
The Unreal Engine 5 graphics engine is the technical pillar of Directive 8020. Supermassive has focused on the facial realism of the characters, achieving expressions that convey fear and distrust. Every gesture and micro-expression reinforces the tense atmosphere. Lighting and particle effects help create a hostile and detailed environment, where every shadow can hide a threat.
Trusting Your Shipmate: The New Extreme Sport 🚀
If surviving a family dinner without arguing was already hard, imagine doing it on a spaceship with an alien that mimics your colleagues. Directive 8020 will put you to the test: every time a crew member asks you for something, you'll have to decide if they're human or a bug with an impersonation complex. Spoiler: you'll probably end up alone and distrusting even your own shadow.
