Bloober Team’s The Medium, which was formerly accessible only on Xbox Series X|S, is now available on PlayStation 5. The Medium was released earlier this year on the newest PC and Xbox technology, and it was a Silent Hill-inspired game that delves into the foundations of supernatural storytelling.
Marianne, a medium whose link to a dimension beyond our own allows her to traverse both the natural and spiritual worlds, is the protagonist of Bloober Team’s newest horror game. Marianne’s abilities, on the other hand, come into play beyond the story’s surface level.
The Medium’s development team worked diligently to include her powers in the game’s gameplay and general presentation, which explains the split-screen concept. When Marianne travels between the actual and spiritual worlds at the same time, split-screen is activated, allowing players to complete puzzles and other tasks in one while progressing through the other. PS5 owners may now enter the spirit realm, thanks to the end of Xbox’s temporal exclusivity.
Bloober Team has released a PS5 launch video for The Medium in honor of the psychological horror game’s debut on the console. It’s available now online and in stores, with a normal edition costing $49.99 and a Deluxe Edition costing $54.99, which includes the game, original soundtrack, and digital artbook.
Physical versions of the game are being released simultaneously on PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S, as well as a Two Worlds Special Launch Edition, which includes a Steelbook case and OST, as well as a 32-page hardback art book. In the video below, you can see the PS5 debut trailer:
The Medium’s DualSense support is highlighted in one portion of the trailer, which offers features that should make the experience “more immersive.” The Medium, like numerous other games before it, makes use of DualSense’s adjustable triggers and haptic feedback.
In certain cases, the adaptive triggers provide resistance, while in others, the haptics convey pulsating and tapping sensations. The touchpad and motion controls were also used by the Bloober Team, especially while inspecting things.
According to reports, the Polish production team is working on a number of projects, one of which is being developed in collaboration with Konami. Naturally, the revelation of such a collaboration sparked rumors of a Silent Hill game, however Bloober Team has stated that this rumor is incorrect.
