Deep Silver and Deep Silver FISHLABS revealed the first teaser gameplay trailer for Chorus at the official Gamescom 2020 Opening Night Show.
In Chorus players take control of dual protagonists: ex-cultist Nara, an ace pilot with a haunted past, and Forsaken – a sentient AI starfighter and Nara’s closest ally – which has a mysterious backstory of his own to unravel. This story-driven single-player experience invites gamers to unlock devastating weapons and mind-bending abilities as they fight to free the galaxy from the Circle, the oppressive cult that will stop at nothing to ensure complete subjugation.
