In the year 3323, psychological issues like paranoia and obsessive thoughts can be cured from the inside-out thanks to mankind’s greatest invention: Primus, a supreme intelligence being. Observing the propensity of intense emotions to precede humanity’s irrational behaviors, the almighty AI begins to alter the mental states of those deemed “unstable” to create a safer, sanitized future.  

Primus constructs Enforcer Decem, a warrior capable of diving into bizarre digital recreations of paranoid minds called Mirrormazes to destroy destructive thoughts. After a failed mission wipes Decem’s memories, set out to relearn the reason for his existence by retrieving memory fragments scattered across a futuristic utopia. Along the way, seek out the dark secrets behind the seemingly perfect world Decem was created to maintain.

Dash and slash through Mirrormares, mental anguish manifesting as mechanized foes. Decem leaves a temporary trail of light in his wake, and his Spatial Retrace ability stops time, empowering him to instantly teleport back to any point of the trail. Retrace to set up enemy-interrupting surprise attacks from unexpected angles, and solve mind-bending puzzles where the confines of time and space block the path forward. 

Battle behemoth mechanical bosses with tactical thinking and keen spatial awareness, manipulating time and space to Decem’s will. Create a personalized fight style with seven Primary Combat Modules and twenty Secondary Modules for a custom combination of light and heavy strikes, charge attacks, counters, stances, and much more. 

Encounter other Enforcers, learn about their missions, and explore a visually stunning world across crumbling ruins and bustling cities. Discover the forgotten past and determine humanity’s future in one of five multiple endings. Enjoy an immersive story with minimal enemy resistance, or fight the mind’s hardest battles with three different difficulties tailored for both action game veterans and newcomers. 

“Retrace The Light is a beautiful game,” said Guo Lei, Producer, Xiaming Game. “Underneath the fast-paced action and creative puzzles is an enthralling story of humanity’s future that we can all understand.”
