KRAKOW, POLAND – October 9, 2020 Bloober Team today announces that its third-person psychological horror game, The Medium, will be released on December 10th, 2020 as one of the first titles to launch exclusively for the Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S. The game will also be available on the PC – pre-orders are now live on Steam, Epic Games Store, and Microsoft Store.

The creative minds behind such acclaimed titles as Blair WitchObserver and Layers of Fear, debut a brand new video that gives you a closer look at the dual-reality world, showcasing the game’s dark art style inspired by Polish artist, Zdzisław Beksiński, and his dystopian surrealist work. Bloober Team’s artists have closely studied Beksiński’s paintings to bring the visually distinct and nightmarish atmosphere to life, pairing it with an evocative score from Arkadiusz Reikowski and Akira Yamaoka to create a truly eerie experience.
