Read Only Memories: Neurodiver is the next mystery adventure set in the world of MidBoss’ 2064: Read Only Memories.

Re-enter the vibrant and inclusive metropolis of Neo-San Francisco, filled with familiar locations and fan-favorite characters including former police detective Lexi Rivers, elite hacker TOMCAT, and genetically-altered lawyer Jess Meas. Explore a brand new story delving into perception, reality and identity.

The powerful organization MINERVA’s latest breakthrough, a genetically engineered creature called the Neurodiver, can probe deep into the subconscious mind. Guide MINERVA agent ES88, capable of using the Neurodiver’s Deep Dive to access and directly interact with memories, as she tracks down a rogue psychic known as the Golden Butterfly. 

Find clues to the strange and powerful Golden Butterfly’s whereabouts in the subconscious minds of Neo-San Francisco’s citizens. Alter the corrupted memories of the Golden Butterfly’s victims to find traces of its next target before the villain flits away. Uncover key information in the minds of cyberpunk citizens while practicing caution, for the Neurodiver’s Deep Dive could cause irreparable damage to a person’s consciousness if overused.

Read Only Memories: Neurodiver will hit Xbox One and PS4 in Q1 2021 alongside the previously announced PC and Mac versions.

“Building new mechanics for NEURODIVER has allowed us to approach the hopeful cyberpunk world we’ve created from new angles,” said Cade Peterson, CEO of MidBoss, “As a diversity-first studio, creating empathy for all kinds of perspectives is part of our mission, and the Deep Dive will allow us to really explore our beloved characters from the inside out.”

A rogue Esper, a naturally gifted psychic, is on the loose and wreaking havoc through the subconscious minds of Neo-San Francisco. Track down this mysterious rogue known as the Golden Butterfly by using the Neurodiver to search the memories in which it hides. Read Only Memories: Neurodiver’s Deep Dive mechanic enables ES88 to identify, manipulate, and unlock information, though overuse can irreparably corrupt her target’s memory.

Set to retro-inspired music from Scarlet Moon artists, this colorful point-and-click adventure explores themes of memory, perception, and identity through the lens of a person who willingly gave up everything she was.

Read Only Memories: Neurodiver comes to PS4, Xbox One and PC/Mac (Steam) in Q1 2021.
