Fort Solis trailer “WELCOME TO FORT SOLIS” shows what psychological horrors await on August 22nd

From Press Release:

Warsaw, Poland, June 27th, 2023 – Developer Fallen Leaf in partnership with Dear Villagers are excited to reveal that their upcoming cinematic sci-fi adventure Fort Solis is launching on PlayStation 5, PC and Mac on August 22nd. Set aboard a deserted mining facility on Mars, players must solve the mystery of the missing crew, make crucial decisions, and escape the compound.

To commemorate this announcement, the developer has put together a new Welcome to Fort Solis trailer, offering a tour of the titular mining station, ranging from its barracks, to its labs, to its greenhouse. Much care was taken to create a facility that could believably host a crew, yet remain coolly indifferent enough to drive one mad. Fort Solis is the product of corporate industry, a massive and inhospitable base set amidst the blood red wasteland of the Martian desert.

“With Fort Solis we wanted the setting to be a character,” said James Tinsdale, Game Director at Fallen Leaf. “Sci-fi horror is host to many of cinema’s greatest, most chilling settings. Like Alien’s Nostromo or Solaris’ titular vessel, we wanted Fort Solis to create its own hostile tone, a derelict mining station barraged by a sand storm. The environments in Fort Solis are integral to the story we’re telling, so bringing it to life was among our top priorities.”

Fort Solis has you assume the role of engineer Jack Leary, as he spends the longest night of his life on an isolated mining base on Mars. Explore Fort Solis station at your own pace, gathering clues from its bunkers, labs, crew quarters, and harsh, stormy surface to understand what enigmatic fate befell its inhabitants. As the night grows longer events escalate, spiral out of control, and the mystery as to what’s really going on deepens.

Utilizing the power of Unreal Engine 5, Fort Solis offers an intricately immersive setting in the deepest reaches of space. Featuring a first class crew that includes Red Dead Redemption 2 lead Roger ClarkTroy Baker (The Last of Us, Death Stranding), and Julia Brown (The Last Kingdom, World on Fire), Fort Solis grounds you in its hard sci-fi drama with no camera cuts, load times, or HUD. Inspired by titles like Firewatch and Until Dawn, Fort Solis offers a hybrid piece of media, emphasizing narration and immersion. Told across four chapters, Fort Solis can be binged in one intense session, or played chapter by chapter like a Netflix series.
