For the upcoming launch of its psychological horror title, The Medium, Bloober Team released a live-action trailer to give a glimpse of the mystery only a medium can solve.

Produced in cooperation with award-winning VFX and animation studio Platige Image, with the talented Paweł Maślona as director as well as Academy Award nominee and BAFTA-winning filmmaker Tomasz Bagiński serving as writer and creative producer, the trailer brings to life in stunning detail the game’s unique atmosphere and art style inspired by painter Zdzisław Beksiński.

The trailer also gives players a look into the key characters central to the game’s mystery, including Marianna, the titular medium, an enigmatic man named Thomas, a spirit called Sadness, and The Maw, a deceptive and hostile entity who can travel between the material and spirit world.

While the live-action trailer takes a thematic, atmospheric, and character-driven approach to The Medium, Bloober Team also recently released an extended 14-minute gameplay trailer that can be seen above in case you missed it. Players will be able to fully recognize and appreciate the many references and interesting details included as part of the live action trailer once they have the chance to play the game later this month. 

The Medium is now available for pre-order and will launch January 28 for Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, Steam, the Microsoft Store, and will also be available on day one with Xbox Game Pass.
