The release date for Unknown 9: Awakening has been announced.
During Gamescom Opening Night Live, developer Reflector Entertainment along with publisher Bandai Namco revealed Unknown 9: Awakening will be released on 18th October. It will be available across PlayStation 5, PS4, Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One and PC (Steam).
You can check out the live action trailer for Unknown 9: Awakening, which stars The Witcher’s Anya Chalotra as the game’s protagonist Haroona, below.
If you are keen to know more, here is the official blurb for Unknown 9: Awakening:
“You play as Haroona, a Quaestor born with the ability to venture into the Fold: a mysterious dimension that overlaps our own. On her quest for powerful hidden knowledge, she will learn to master her unique connection to the Fold, which allows her to channel its powers into our world…but such power does not go unnoticed.
“Haroona quickly becomes the target of the Ascendants, a splinter faction of a secret society known as the LYS, who want to use the Fold to alter the course of human history.”
In addition to a release date, we also have a look at the various editions of the game, which is available to pre-order now. Those who choose to pre-order will also get access to the Haroona Quaestor DLC, featuring a unique Haroona skin with two color variations, the Quaestor journal reskin, and two extra alternative animations.
