12 Minutes: Déjà Vu With Some Hollywood Heavy-Hitters
BK Delaney
Gamescom: Opening Night revealed some pretty amazing games for Q3 2020. In their midst, an unassuming game entitled 12 Minutes.
12 Minutes is an interactive murder mystery game developed by Luis Antonio and published by Annapurna Interactive. It has been initially developed for release on Xbox and PC platforms.
The game is played top-down, from the husband’s point of view. Stuck in a tiny apartment, you are forced to relive horrific events over and over again in a perpetual déjà vu until you solve the mystery that lies within the time loop.
As if that didn’t sound intriguing enough, Annapurna Interactive released the teaser trailer revealing three Hollywood heavy-hitters as the voice cast: Willem Dafoe, James McAvoy and Daisy Ridley.
Although it has been said, 12 Minutes will be released sometime this fall, the exact date has not yet been set. Could this be the sleeper cell game of 2020? Only “time” will tell.
