Kursk will be the first proper adventure-documentary game in history. It will tell the tragic story of the submarine that sank to the bottom of the Barents Sea on August 12, 2000 with all 118 crew members on board. The exact cause of the disaster still remains unknown. The plot of the game will be mostly based on facts, thanks to which players will have the opportunity to learn more about the dramatic story of the vessel.

The main mechanics and aspects of the game include internal policies, the economy, diplomacy, a unique event system, warfare, espionage, and engaging missions. The results of the player’s decisions will be strongly affected by the moral choices they make during gameplay.

Announced in 2015, Kursk was initially scheduled for 2016, then delayed until 2017, and now a formal launch date will be revealed in June 2018. Hopefully ...

Jujubee revealed that it will announce the official release date for Kursk during Pixel Heaven in June, a popular festival for gamers and fans of retro gaming. The studio will be promoting its existing games at the event and will host a panel on the second day, during which it will show gameplay footage from, and announce the official release date.

Jujubee has released a new trailer for the game Kursk. It's worth noting that it was rendered in real-time, using the game's engine, and was not enhanced. As such, it showcases the actual current state of the game's quality, which will only continue to be polished by the team responsible for this historic title until its official release.

Jujubee has long emphasized its desire to step outside the self-contained world of video game subjects. The studio wants to tackle serious and controversial themes, inspiring and encouraging gamers to expand their knowledge about the world around us. And so, the company is introducing a new sub-category for its products that will from now on be identified by the slogan Games Beyond. They will be characterized by a greater emphasis on the story being told, original gameplay, and mature subject matter. The first game to fit the new category will be Kursk, the next being the already announced Conclave.

"We believe the time has come to tell real stories. In an age in which we compete for the free time of consumers against the entire entertainment industry, including movies and TV series, and when people are less likely to read non-fiction, game producers have an additional obligation. It's true that games are becoming more complex, offering an incredible audio-visual experience, and allowing us to lose ourselves in a virtual world, but they rarely help us grow. That is why we want to step outside the self-contained world of video game subject matter and invite players to broaden their knowledge about history or the actual world. We’re convinced that Kursk will be a very attractive title to anyone looking for an ambitious and mature game" - said Michał Stępień, CEO of Jujubee.

Kursk is currently in development for PS4, Xbox One and Pc, scheduled for 2018.
