The main mechanic is Shadow Merge. With its help, you can disappear into the shadows and move freely in them, overcoming walls, reaching hidden locations and making surprise attacks. You will also collect echoes to improve your abilities. Craft gadgets to enhance your arsenal and rely on your dexterity to navigate the high-tech facilities built on the site of ancient ruins controlled by the mysterious Helios Corporation.
The game encourages experimentation. You can be a silent ghost, moving around unnoticed in stealth. Or you can unleash your power and become a deadly wraith, destroying enemies head-on. The world of Ereban is morally ambiguous – your actions have consequences, but they are not always clear-cut. Spare or destroy? Help or destroy? The choice is yours in this universe where the ends justify the means. As Ayana, you’ll explore the remains of a lost civilization, infiltrate imposing sci-fi sites, and forge unlikely alliances. The task is to find out the truth about the fate of his people and reveal the secrets of Helios, the energy giant who supposedly saved the world.
