Polish developer The Farm 51 has officially announced its latest project Chernobylite – a sci-fi survival horror game set inside the Ukrainian ghost town 30 years after the nuclear disaster occurred. You’ve come back to search for your missing girlfriend and uncover the truth behind her disappearance. However, as time has passed the threat has increased due to ‘chernobylite’, a dangerous substance that has developed as a result of the explosion.
Players will be able to craft items to use as they tackle the ramshackled environments as well as the mutations that have spawned due to the radiation.
It looks similar and even eerier than the company’s previous game Get Even, utilising their Reality 51 scanning technology.
There’s no release information at the moment but The Farm 51 has revealed that Chernobylite will come to PC and consoles.
From the press release:
