Lost Records: Bloom & Rage is a narrative adventure game set in the fictional town of Velvet Cove in the summer of 1995, a magical summer of self-discovery and forging unbreakable bonds
Four high school friends – Swann, Nora, Autumn, and Kat – spend the summer together hanging out, playing music, and becoming best friends... until something changes the trajectory of all their lives. After 27 years of silence between them, they reunite to confront the dark secrets that made them promise to never speak again.
At the start of the summer, Swann gets to know a group of friends – Nora, Autumn, and Kat. She spends the summer forming close bonds with each of them: Nora, rebellious, eccentric and full of energy; Autumn, the thoughtful and charismatic group leader; and Kat: pragmatic, strong-willed and enigmatic. Four very different personalities and perspectives come together on that fateful summer of ‘95 to uncover secrets that will bind – and break – the group.
Lost Records: Bloom & Rage will be released in two distinct parts, a month apart. A natural break in the story means that players will be able to start discussions, share theories, and eagerly anticipate the next part in the story.
Lost Records: Bloom & Rage will be priced at 39,99€/$39.99/£35.89 upon release, with players able to benefit from a launch discount of 10%. This price point includes both parts of the game - “Bloom” and “Rage” - which together offer an immersive experience adding up to roughly 10-12 hours of gameplay. Tape 2 (“Rage”) will become available as a free downloadable update when it is released.
While Tape 1 will be released on February 18, 2025, as planned, DON’T NOD has made the decision to slightly push back the release of Tape 2 (“Rage”) by four weeks, to April 15, 2025. This decision was made to allow for additional optimization and to give the team the necessary time to refine the experience for players and enhance the storytelling for a truly immersive continuation of the journey.
In the meantime, players and fans can expect some fun and interactive activities on social media to keep them entertained in the time between the two Tapes. These events will be an opportunity to dive even deeper into the world of Lost Records, interact with the community and share unique moments around the game.
Lost Records: Bloom & Rage will have a soundtrack made up of original tracks composed for the game and licensed music to tell the story of Swann and friends. As with the song featured in the announcement trailer at The Game Awards 2023 by Nora Kelly, the song featured in the Lo-fi Summer trailer is another original track composed for Lost Records: Bloom & Rage. The music is written and performed by Ruth Radelet, Adam Miller and Nat Walker.
Lost Records: Bloom & Rage Tape 1 is coming to PC (Steam), Xbox Series X|S, and PS5 on on February 18, 2025, followed by Tape 2 on April 15, 2025
