ZA/UM Unveils C4: A Mind-Bending Spy RPG That Challenges Reality

The creators of the acclaimed Disco Elysium have unveiled their next project, codenamed C4, described by ZA/UM as a "cognitively dissonant spy RPG." This ambitious title, three years in development, promises a narrative experience unlike any other, challenging players' perceptions of reality and morality.

A cryptic 57-second teaser trailer, devoid of gameplay footage, sets the stage. Surreal visuals and a haunting monologue about espionage create an atmosphere of secrecy, tension, and psychological complexity.

In C4, players become operatives for a shadowy global power, embroiled in a clandestine struggle for truth and influence. The protagonist's mind—fragile yet powerful, influenced by psychoactive substances and external pressures—is central to the gameplay. This mental landscape becomes both a tool and a battleground, where players navigate shifting realities and face the consequences of their decisions.

Combining ZA/UM's storytelling prowess with a unique premise, C4 is poised to be a groundbreaking RPG. Fans of Disco Elysium and newcomers alike can anticipate a game pushing the boundaries of interactive narratives, exploring the intricate relationship between identity, ideology, and control.
