Last year, game developer Pocketpair launched its own publishing division – Pocketpair Publishing – to expand its business ventures. Soon after, they revealed that their inaugural publishing project would be the upcoming game from Surgent Studios, known for creating Tales of Kenzera: Zau. Recently, both parties shared an update stating that this game will now be titled Dead Take.
Title Take, a chilling first-person horror game set within the dark underbelly of the entertainment industry and its abuses of power and corruption, is slated for release on PC in 2025. Surgent Studios has hinted at an impressive roster of talented actors who will soon be unveiled as part of the project.
In the game ‘Dead Take’, you assume the role of an actor growing restless as your friend remains unreachable by phone. Venture into the decaying grandeur of the entertainment world and eventually arrive at the last known location where he fell silent – a luxurious, ominous mansion.
As you tread through a house filled with enigmatic human-like entities, you progress by tackling puzzles involving various objects and piecing together videos found throughout. Strangely quiet despite being the location of a lavish gathering hours earlier, the house is now inhabited by these figures that appear unexpectedly. As you move deeper into the mansion, the safety of your friend hangs in the balance. Will you rescue him and discover the truth behind last night’s events?
Under the leadership of actor Abubakar Salim, Surgent Studios was forced to shut down after the release of Tales of Kenzera: Zau, as they struggled to fund their next project – despite positive reviews from critics, Zau failed to achieve commercial success. Additionally, Salim and his team faced a malicious online campaign. Fortunately, Pocketpair came to their aid.
Salim remarked, “We’re being discreet because there’s a good reason for it.” The theme of our upcoming game is sensitive, and it resonates deeply. When it gets released, I hope the players will be astonished, thinking, ‘I can’t believe they really made that!’
