Release Date: September 21, 2015
SOMA is a sci-fi horror game from Frictional Games, the creators of Amnesia: The Dark Descent. It is an unsettling story about identity, consciousness, and what it means to be human.
Enter the world of SOMA and face horrors buried deep beneath the ocean waves. Delve through locked terminals and secret documents to uncover the truth behind the chaos. Seek out the last remaining inhabitants and take part in the events that will ultimately shape the fate of the station. But be careful, danger lurks in every corner: corrupted humans, twisted creatures, insane robots, and even an inscrutable omnipresent A.I. You will need to figure out how to deal with each one of them. Just remember there’s no fighting back, either you outsmart your enemies or you get ready to run.

SOMA arrives on the Xbox One, complete with an all new Safe Mode that will do nothing to make you feel safe from the horrors in the darkness of PATHOS-II.

SOMA tackles some big questions but does so with plenty of intelligence and some effective scares.

What makes us human? Is it our physical body, our intellect, our spirit — or all of the above? These questions permeate an underwater world where everything’s gone mad. The machines have lost it, taking over all that was once run by mankind — including the very nature of being human.
