Karma: the Dark world is a first-person cinematic psychological horror title where players will be investigating the deepest secrets of their suspects’ minds.

Set in an alternate timeline where post-war Germany has fallen into a dystopian state, ruled over by the Leviathan Corporation using mass surveillance and mind bending technology - what starts out as another case for Roam Agent Daniel McGovern, sees him uncover a world of deceit and betrayal, where he begins to doubt everything he knows, including his own identity.



Inspired by the works of visionary creators such as David Lynch (Twin Peaks), Hideo Kojima (Metal Gear Solid, Death Stranding), and Christopher Nolan (Inception, Interstellar), and developed in Unreal Engine 5, they'll have a demo coming out before launch that will let you try out your skills as a ROAM agent yourself - but for now, just like every wishlist and share of exciting news with friends helped us on our journey to the Edge of the World - spreading the word of an exciting new indie game with us is just another way to help indie developers share their works with the world!

KARMA will be available at launch for $24.99 / €24.99 / £19.99, with a 10% launch discount on PC, PlayStation and an additional 15% off on Steam for players who own any previous Wired Productions title.

KARMA: The Dark World is available for Wishlist now on Steam, PlayStation Store, GOG and Epic Store.
