Please support Game Informer. Print magazine subscriptions are less than $2 per issue
Return of the Obra Dinn, the newest game from Papers, Please creator Lucas Pope, is a lo-fi first-person title that is the blast from the past in more ways than one. It might be easier to watch the trailer released today than to try and interpret a description of it.
Taking place in Falmouth in 1807, you work as an insurance agent for the East India Company who has been tasked with exploring the ship Obra Dinn. The vessel disappeared years prior, but has suddenly shown up on shore without any of its crew.
The game is scheduled to release this Fall on PC.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
