by Rainier on Feb. 24, 2004 @ 12:45 p.m. PST

Delivering a gripping playing experience, Second Sight combines an atmospheric, thriller narrative with paranormal psychic abilities, stealthy exploration and intense shooter action. Lead John Vattic, a former researcher, as he attempts to unravel a mystery that led to his imprisonment in a maximum security Medical Research Facility. As he makes his escape, Vattic discovers that he is empowered with amazing psychic abilities, capable of manipulating people and the surrounding environment.

"like he's ever getting out - he's a psycho killer."

John Vattic awakens from a coma in a sinister US medical facility where he has been subjected to traumatic surgery and experimentation.

His body and mind are broken, he doesn't know his name, he can't remember his past, all he knows is that his only hope for survival is to escape and unravel the mystery that has led to his imprisonment.

Finding fragments of the past reveals his previous involvement in a covert military mission investigating psychic research in Siberia...

... A mission that went horribly wrong.

... A mission that empowered him with awesome psychic abilities which can devastate the people and world around him.

Haunted by flashbacks, tormented by his powers and gripped by the fear that he may have been somehow to blame for what happened in Siberia, John Vattic begins searching for survivors from the failed expedition and uncovers a fatal chain of events leading to a sinister conspiracy and sickening abuse of power.

David Doak, Director of Free Radical, says "Second Sight realises our ambitions to create exciting fresh IP and innovate in a new genre. It brings together great gameplay and a compelling story - everyone at Free Radical is really excited about this one."

Steve Ellis, Director of Free Radical, says "Second Sight marks an important step in the expansion of Free Radical. The company has grown to two talented teams, developing two great original products. We've come a long way in 5 years."

Development of Second Sight will be completed shortly, with an anticipated worldwide release later in 2004.
