It's an important day for everyone here at LKA and Wired as The Town Of Light turns 5!

The Town Of Light was our previous game release, and tells the harrowing story of Renée, a woman returning to an now abandoned asylum where she spent her youth - and the tragic events that occurred within its walls.

In many ways it built the foundations that Martha Is Dead is raising from, combining realistic visuals and hard conversations into an unforgettable but respectful experience that highlights the importance of mental health discussion and destigmatisation.

We'll be celebrating this special game for the next 5 days, and Wired will be sharing anecdotes and interviews from us, as well as some of the incredible videos, behind the scenes footage and spotlighting the incredible impact that The Town Of Light had on Wired, and the industry as a whole - before casting our eyes forward to the future with Martha is Dead.

Wow - if that doesn't get you asking some questions about exactly what we have in store for you next year then nothing will!

If this is your first time being introduced to Martha - let us catch you up to speed!

Martha Is Dead is a first person thriller created by LKA, the team behind our award winning thriller ‘The Town of Light’
It merges the beauty of the Tuscany countryside with the encroaching ugliness of war to create a psychologically impacting story based on real history, superstition, darkness and dreamscapes and it's launching on Next-Gen (current gen now we guess?! - seriously, look at those visuals!)



But what is it about?

It’s 1944, and the body of a woman has been found, drowned and desecrated, by the side of a lake in the depths of the Italian countryside. Martha is dead, and now her twin sister must deal with the fallout from her murder, whilst the horror of war draws ever closer…

Martha is Dead will launch later in 2021 on Xbox Series X | Xbox Series S | PlayStation 5 | PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC.

You can add the title to your Steam Wishlist here : Martha Is Dead on Steam

[h2]Hello everyone - and welcome to our Steam page![/h2]

No doubt many of you are here from the recent announcement of 'The Lake' trailer that went online today - and you likely have many questions we'll attempt to answer as many of them as we can and keep you updated as we move through development!

Just in case you missed out on the new trailer - you should really go and check it out!
(Be warned though - it really isn't for the faint of heart!)

[h2]So what is Martha Is Dead?[/h2]

Martha Is Dead is a first person psychological horror set during 1944 that tells a dark tale of murder and mystery in Tuscany!

[h2]Who Is Martha? Why is she dead?[/h2]

Martha is your sister, your twin sister to be precise. She is also the victim of a brutal murder, found drowned and desecrated on the bank of a lake. This event acts as the catalyst for the events of our games story, and sends you on a journey of learning to cope with loss whilst attempting to uncover the motive and methods behind the gruesome act - something that is easier said then done against the backdrop of the horrors of war.

[h2]Who are the developers and publishers?[/h2]

The developers are LKA, who previously introduced the world to Renee and her story based on real life events in the Volterra asylum in 'The Town of Light'

They are an indie studio who operate out of Italy, and are masters of telling grounded, dark stories with respect and purpose.

The Publishers are Wired Productions, lovers of indie games worldwide who were also lucky enough to publish LKA's Town of Light previously.

[h2]When Is Martha Is Dead coming out?[/h2]

Right now we are targeting a 2021 release.
