Possessor(s) release date set for 11 November

Mark those calendars!

The Possessor(s) release date has been set for 11 November across PC and PS5, Heart Machine and Devolver announced over the weekend.

“In Possessor(s), you play as Luca, a high-schooler trapped in the ruins of Sanzu City – a sprawling metropolis overrun with otherworldly horrors following an interdimensional catastrophe. Her body broken, Luca strikes a deal with Rhem, a newly freed demon in need of a host. Together, they make a last-ditch effort to survive,” Heart Machine and Devolver said in a press release.

Possessor(s) combines elements of platform fighters and Metroidvanias, offering stylish combat and exploration with a focus on juggling, aerial combos, and improvised weapons like kitchen knives, a guitar, and a computer mouse.”

The duo have dubbed the title a “Search Action” game.

“As Luca and Rhem learn to co-exist, they’ll develop new skills to help them navigate a huge, interconnected city, exploring different districts, each with unique challenges and atmosphere. Possessor(s) also explores themes of codependency, loss, and survival as Luca searches for her mother and best friend in the ruins of Sanzu.”

Expect Possessor(s) from 11 November on Windows PC and PS5.
