Observer System Redux planned for Xbox Series X, PS5

Observer System Redux will head to Xbox Series X and PS5 at the end of the year, Bloober Team has announced.

The game is a re-release of the current-gen cyberpunk thriller Observer, offering up new content including an expanded narrative alongside “augmented visuals.”

For those unaware, the title is set in a bleak 2084 where a digital plague has impacted people who’ve chosen to augment themselves. The result is a world where corporations have taken over. As an oppressed citizen, you’re tasked to hack into “the darkest corners of your suspects’ minds,” to expose their dreams, fears and “whatever else your investigation may require.”

The game features Rutger Hauer in one of his last voice-acting roles as the Observer himself, Dan Lazarski.

We’ll have more on Observer System Redux as its made available. It will release alongside the Xbox Series X and PS4 later this holiday 2020 season. The original Observer is currently available on Windows PC, Mac, Linux, Xbox One, PS4 and Switch.
