Obduction, powered by the Unreal Engine 4, resurrects that incredible feeling of suddenly finding yourself in the middle of a new world to explore, discover, solve, and become part of. The Obduction project will take what Cyan knows about creating deeply immersive worlds and apply it to an entirely new game with fantastic scenery, incredible architecture, compelling story, and exceptional challenges.

Obduction will be built with the same framework that made Cyan's earlier games such a wonderful experience: stunning landscapes, deep storyline, engaging characters, dramatic soundscapes, and challenging yet intuitive puzzles. Obduction is an entirely new property, delivered using one of the most powerful game development technologies available today. Obduction is an adventure game for the new millennium that stays true to the concepts that made the genre great.

Obduction's experience supplies what every good storyteller does: a very personal window into a much larger world. Obduction begins with... well… an abduction - your abduction. On a crystal clear, moon-lit night, a curious, organic artifact drops from the sky and inexplicably whisks you away across the universes to who-knows-where (or when, or why).

And, as anyone who ever played Myst or Riven knows, exploring everything around you allows you to read between the lines and to begin to answer your questions. Why is there an old, abandoned farmhouse - complete with white picket fence - in the middle of an alien landscape? You'll find out. From this point on the story becomes your story. 

"After nearly 20 years, we're thrilled to be heading back to console. With its massive player base and rich PSVR experience, PlayStation is the perfect platform to introduce Obduction's meticulously-crafted worlds to millions seeking to magically transport themselves elsewhere," said Rand Miller, CEO of Cyan. “Cyan has seen the future and we're all in on VR."

Fans who attend PlayStation Experience will be the first to get their hands on Obduction PS4 with guided tours by Cyan’s dev team. Additionally, there will be a special conversation with Rand Miller at the Obduction booth on Saturday, December 3, 3pm, on Cyan's vision for PSVR and beyond.

Having recently announced Obduction for HTC Vive, Cyan has already begun work adding support for hand controls and room scale. Hand controls will allow players to interact directly with objects in the world - buttons, levers, doors, valves, etc. - even picking up objects to examine them. These new features will provide an even more immersive experience to players with the appropriate capabilities (Vive, Oculus Touch, and PSVR).

Obduction is available for download from Oculus Store,  Steam,  GOG, and  Humble Store for $29.99.
