'Omensight' Also Comes to PS4 - Screens & Trailer

Omensight is a fate-shaping adventure where you are a powerful warrior that exists outside of time, have been called on the final dawn of the world of Urralia, witness its destruction, and piece together a chain of events that doesn't end in disaster.

When the world of Urralia nears its end, that’s when your work as The Harbinger begins. Take on the impartial, and crucial, role of both warrior and judge to rewrite the destruction of your war-sieged world by identifying characters that may have played a part in the apocalypse. By understanding the events that pushed Urralia to its tragic end, you can manipulate time and circumstance to prevent the catastrophe.

You are the Harbinger, a skilled warrior who exists outside of time. You have foreseen the annihilation of the land known as Urralia and have been summoned to rewrite its fate. Serve as the eyes and the sword of Urralia as you identify characters who could have played a part in the story of its destruction, like a war general or a powerful sorcerer. Appear alongside these characters to discover how they chose to spend their final moments. Will you fight with them or against them?

By participating in fateful events from different perspectives, you’ll learn valuable information about how specific decisions unfold. When those decisions call for battle, make use of the Harbinger’s sword techniques and creatively combine time-slowing spells or other abilities to eliminate threats. Use the power of Omensight to weave a new narrative, pave the way to a brighter future, and give the world of Urralia a second chance.


Spearhead Games are pleased to announce that Omensight is coming to PlayStation 4 alongside PC at launch!
