Twelve Minutes is an interactive thriller about a man trapped in a time loop, a fresh take on the thriller genre, where players are asked to take part in a compelling story centered around a shocking crime which they must help solve. The game subverts the ideas of what play should feel like and will present players with a truly unique experience. 

In this interactive thriller, a man’s romantic evening with his wife is interrupted by a violent home invasion. The man tries to stop the attacker and gets knocked out only to immediately find himself back to the start of the evening, stuck in a time loop of 12 minutes and doomed to relive the same terror again and again.

Players must find a way to use the knowledge of what’s coming to change the outcome and break the loop.

The Twelve Minutes ensemble will include Golden Globe nominee James McAvoy (“It Chapter 2” “Split,” “X Men Franchise”) , Daisy Ridley (“Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker,” “Star Wars: Episode VIII The Last Jedi,” “Star Wars: Episode VII The Force Awakens,” “Murder on the Orient Express”) and four-time Academy Award nominee Willem Dafoe (“The Lighthouse”, “At Eternity’s Gate,” “The Florida Project”).

The characters are nameless throughout the experience; “the man” is voiced by James McAvoy, “the woman” is voiced by Daisy Ridley, and “the intruder” is voiced by Willem Dafoe. 

“I’m thrilled to have this incredibly talented cast bring the nuanced and complex characters of Twelve Minutes to life,” said Twelve Minutes director Luis Antonio. “This experience blends the mediums of film and games, and these extraordinary actors are perfect for the challenge of delivering a new twist on the thriller genre.” 

Twelve Minutes will be releasing for PC, Xbox Series X and Xbox One in 2020.
