It’s been on the cards for a couple of years, but finally the indie developers at Over The Moon have been able to reveal the exact release date for The Fall Part 2: Unbound. There’s also a new trailer to take in too!
Coming to Xbox One, PS4, Nintendo Switch and PC, The Fall Part 2: Unbound will arrive on Feb 13th 2018.
The sequel to the award winning original title – and the second in the planned trilogy – The Fall Part 2: unbound brings a hybrid of haunting metroidvania exploration mixed with some brain testing point and click puzzles and chilling sci-fi.
Part 2: Unbound will take things on from where its predecessor left off as we follow the exploits of A.R.I.D., a rogue AI who’s rewritten its protocol to follow one rule: “save myself”. The new parameters of A.R.I.D.’s programming have allowed her the ability to possess new hosts including a posh, reality-divorced Butler, a sexy service Companion and a mysterious combat drone, known as “One”.
“With The Fall Part 2: Unbound, our goal is to give players a deeper level of gameplay and story integration than they have ever seen,” said John Warner, CEO of Over The Moon. “Our newest trailer highlights a strange and unsettling section of the game, during which players possess a robot designed to pleasure humans, only twist and manipulate her into hurting others to obtain their goal. We want this game to shock you, excite you, make you laugh, thematically challenge you and put you in situations you have never been in before. It’s our highest goal that video games can change people for the better, and The Fall part 2: Unbound is as rich with interesting ideas as it is fun to play.”
To celebrate the confirmed release date is a new trailer too. The launch video below highlights the new playable Companion character as A.R.I.D.’s morally questionable protocol causes her hosts to struggle with issues of subservience, survival, and existential crisis.
Check it out and then get ready for Feb 13th 2018! Don’t forget to check out our review of the original game too.
