by Rainier on Aug. 27, 2020 @ 3:56 p.m. PDT

Unknown 9: Awakening is a 3rd person narrative-driven action/adventure game.

Driven by a seasoned and diverse development team, Unknown 9: Awakening represents the tentpole of a much larger content ecosystem that is being built around the ambitious Unknown 9 Storyworld.

The Reflector Entertainment development team introduces Unknown 9: Awakening with a first look at its protagonist, Haroona, and a glimpse into her Fold abilities.

Unknown 9: Awakening tells the story of Haroona, a young woman raised on the streets of Kolkata India and haunted by visions of her own death. Haroona struggles to understand her mysterious innate abilities to manipulate the unseen. A mentor soon helps Haroona hone her gifts, teaches her to access the mysterious hidden dimension known as The Fold and propels her on a journey to unlock the mysteries of this new realm.


Unknown 9: Awakening is Reflector’s first game. It’s a passion project being undertaken by a small team of industry veterans that want to do things differently,” says Alexandre Amancio, CEO at Reflector Entertainment. “Our game features a complex heroine that must come to terms with who she is. The game is set in the Unknown 9 universe, a modern Storyworld that centers on humanity being on the edge of either transcendence or self-destruction.”

The broader Unknown 9 universe features interconnected media and content offerings with intersecting characters and storylines that form a rich and immersive Storyworld - including a mystery-thriller novel by bestselling author Layton Green entitled Unknown 9: Genesis, an original podcast called Unknown 9: Out of Sight, and a comic book, Unknown 9: Torment. These various offerings are all standalone products, but when experienced as a whole, they form a broader narrative and lead to a greater appreciation of the mysterious Unknown 9 universe. 

Fans can delve into the Unknown 9 Storyworld by visiting the official website where they can participate in Unknown 9: Chapters, an interactive, community-driven experience, created by Montreal studio Alice & Smith, that lets fans decipher mysteries of the Unknown 9universe. They will also gain access to parts of the novel, podcast, & comic book for free for a limited time.

Unknown 9: Awakening is in development for PS5, Xbox Series X and PC, scheduled for 2021.
