‘Close to The Sun’ Available Via Epic Games Store Today, PS4 And Xbox One Ports Arrive Later This Year
While PlayStation 4 and Xbox One owners will have to wait until later this year, publisher Wired Productions and developer Storm in a Teacup’s Bioshock-inspired Close to the Sun has been released today for PC via the Epic Games Store. The devs have also released a launch trailer for the game.
On top of that, Gematsu have managed to do a bit of gameplay, which you can also view below.
In Close to the Sun, you play as a woman named Rose in an “alternative 19th Century where famed inventor and futurist Nikola Tesla was able to fulfill his potential and change the world forever”. Rose is aboard the Helios, a colossal vessel for scientific research, in search of her missing sister, Ada.
As you explore the Helios, you quickly realize that something’s not right. The stench of rotting flesh lingers in the air. Silence. A single word is painted across the entrance… QUARANTINE!
