The Medium, the next game from Layers of Fear and Blair Witch studio Bloober Team, was shown off in new detail during last week’s Xbox Series X showcase. Skipping the current Xbox generation entirely, The Medium will make use of the next-generation increase in power to render two worlds simultaneously, a feature that Bloober refers to as “Dual-reality” gameplay. On Xbox Series X, The Medium will run at 4K and 30fps which the studio says will provide a more cinematic approach on console.
Curiously, the list below makes no mention of a solid-state drive, technology which Bloober said was essential for realising their game on the Xbox Series X. “For the immersion that is crucial in our games, it was the best feature and it was delivered by Microsoft,” lead game designer Wojciech Piejko said back in May after The Medium made its debut.
“And of course the raw house power is great. So we are now able to deliver our vision of The Medium for the first time just how we imagined it.” The Medium is currently scheduled for a Holiday 2020 release.
