KARMA: The Dark World

Systeme: PC, PS5 - ab 10.09.25 auch Xbox

Award-winning publisher Wired Productions and independent developer Pollard Studio are thrilled to announce that KARMA: The Dark World will officially launch on March 27, 2025, exclusively on PlayStation 5 and PC. The highly anticipated psychological thriller will be available at launch for $24.99 / €24.99 / £19.99, with a 10% launch discount on PC, PlayStation and an additional 15% off on Steam for players who own any previous Wired Productions title.

To mark the occasion, the second in KARMA's mind-bending cinematic trilogy of trailers dropped - featuring the haunting new track 'Into the Mist', written and performed by Geng Li. The 3-minute-long epic release date trailer focuses on the stunning visuals, surreal environments and emotionally-charged story inspired by cinema’s finest auteurs with shocking twists at every turn. The release date trailer showcases central characters to the story, asking ‘when every shadow hides a secret, who can you trust?’

A host of PlayStation 5 Pro exclusive features were revealed, including full-featured PSSR Integration for enhanced image quality, definition and texture clarity - along with improved reflections and distance rendering - providing rock solid 60fps performance at 4k resolution.

Inspired by the works of legendary creators such as David Lynch (Twin Peaks), Hideo Kojima (Metal Gear Solid, Death Stranding), and Christopher Nolan (Inception, Interstellar), KARMA: The Dark World blends psychological horror with immersive storytelling, challenging players to uncover the deepest secrets hidden in the minds of their targets.

Developed in Unreal Engine 5, the game delivers an intensely atmospheric experience with stunning visuals and a haunting narrative.

“Wired Productions has always championed storytellers who push the boundaries and craft compelling narratives. Yonghe Wang and Pollard Studio team have raised the bar and have delivered a rollercoaster assault on the senses, in an abstract, surreal, dark yet hauntingly beautiful cinematic gaming masterpiece” said Leo Zullo, Managing Director at Wired Productions. “If Kojima, Christopher Nolan and the late and great David Lynch ever had the chance to work on a project from China, KARMA: The Dark World might just be the end result.”

Enter the Mind, Uncover the Truth
In KARMA: The Dark World, players take on the role of Daniel McGovern, an elite Roam Agent tasked with mind-diving into the memories of suspects. What begins as another routine investigation soon unravels into a dark conspiracy that challenges everything he believes. As McGovern navigates the minds of those he pursues, he must confront disturbing truths and question his own reality.
