Aditi knows the journey ahead will be difficult, but she\u2019s driven to get to the bottom of the impossible enigmas that have played on her mind, haunted her even, since she was a kid.<\/p>\n<p>Every inch of Samsara is filled with mystery.

In many ways, they are one of the core elements of the game players will discover \u2013 engaging with these complicated, morally complex, scenarios that will challenge them in different ways as Aditi continues her search for the truth.<\/p>\n<p>Experimentation, discovery, brute force\u2026 There are so many ways to pick apart these major encounters and discover unique solutions. For instance, you come across a person seemingly trapped in a bizarre computer server made of rats. Is he really who he says he is? Is the situation as clear cut and straightforward as he makes it out to be? I think these Experiments will be something players will talk about a lot \u2013 how they solved every situation, and the consequences that came with it.<\/p>\n<p>When we first released <em>Soma<\/em> back in 2015, there were some lingering ideas of how we could push things further, both in terms of gameplay and also narratively. So, in some ways, this game takes the ideas we had in <em>Soma<\/em> and pushes them way, way further, acting as a spiritual successor of sorts. To assist with this, we have a whole new proprietary game engine, HPL4, which helps us get there. It helps make a big leap with the interconnectivity of the space \u2013 Samsara is this large, expansive area and we wanted it to feel like \u2018if you can see something from a window \u2013 you can go there\u2019. It\u2019s by far the most densely detailed and complex world we\u2019ve ever created and feels like a natural evolution for us in so many ways.<\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-jetpack-slideshow aligncenter\" data-effect=\"slide\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-jetpack-slideshow_container swiper-container\">\n<ul class=\"wp-block-jetpack-slideshow_swiper-wrapper swiper-wrapper\">\n<li class=\"wp-block-jetpack-slideshow_slide swiper-slide\">\n<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" alt=\"Ontos Screenshot\" class=\"wp-block-jetpack-slideshow_image wp-image-215694\" data-id=\"215694\" src=\"https:\/\/xboxwire.thesourcemediaassets.com\/sites\/2\/2025\/12\/ONTOS_Screenshot_EMU-suit-65bca71e9e568b3500e0-1024x576.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/xboxwire.thesourcemediaassets.com\/sites\/2\/2025\/12\/ONTOS_Screenshot_EMU-suit-65bca71e9e568b3500e0-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/xboxwire.thesourcemediaassets.com\/sites\/2\/2025\/12\/ONTOS_Screenshot_EMU-suit-65bca71e9e568b3500e0-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/xboxwire.thesourcemediaassets.com\/sites\/2\/2025\/12\/ONTOS_Screenshot_EMU-suit-65bca71e9e568b3500e0-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/xboxwire.thesourcemediaassets.com\/sites\/2\/2025\/12\/ONTOS_Screenshot_EMU-suit-65bca71e9e568b3500e0.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"><\/figure>\n<\/li>\n<li class=\"wp-block-jetpack-slideshow_slide swiper-slide\">\n<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" alt=\"Ontos Screenshot\" class=\"wp-block-jetpack-slideshow_image wp-image-215693\" data-id=\"215693\" src=\"https:\/\/xboxwire.thesourcemediaassets.com\/sites\/2\/2025\/12\/ONTOS_Screenshot_Crombie-d6b65d0712f094490e4a-1024x576.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/xboxwire.thesourcemediaassets.com\/sites\/2\/2025\/12\/ONTOS_Screenshot_Crombie-d6b65d0712f094490e4a-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/xboxwire.thesourcemediaassets.com\/sites\/2\/2025\/12\/ONTOS_Screenshot_Crombie-d6b65d0712f094490e4a-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/xboxwire.thesourcemediaassets.com\/sites\/2\/2025\/12\/ONTOS_Screenshot_Crombie-d6b65d0712f094490e4a-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/xboxwire.thesourcemediaassets.com\/sites\/2\/2025\/12\/ONTOS_Screenshot_Crombie-d6b65d0712f094490e4a.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"><\/figure>\n<\/li>\n<li class=\"wp-block-jetpack-slideshow_slide swiper-slide\">\n<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" alt=\"Ontos Screenshot\" class=\"wp-block-jetpack-slideshow_image wp-image-215692\" data-id=\"215692\" src=\"https:\/\/xboxwire.thesourcemediaassets.com\/sites\/2\/2025\/12\/ONTOS_Screenshot_Camera-30b70d6de1ee459f37fa-1024x576.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/xboxwire.thesourcemediaassets.com\/sites\/2\/2025\/12\/ONTOS_Screenshot_Camera-30b70d6de1ee459f37fa-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/xboxwire.thesourcemediaassets.com\/sites\/2\/2025\/12\/ONTOS_Screenshot_Camera-30b70d6de1ee459f37fa-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/xboxwire.thesourcemediaassets.com\/sites\/2\/2025\/12\/ONTOS_Screenshot_Camera-30b70d6de1ee459f37fa-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/xboxwire.thesourcemediaassets.com\/sites\/2\/2025\/12\/ONTOS_Screenshot_Camera-30b70d6de1ee459f37fa.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"><\/figure>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><a class=\"wp-block-jetpack-slideshow_button-prev swiper-button-prev swiper-button-white\" role=\"button\"><\/a><a class=\"wp-block-jetpack-slideshow_button-next swiper-button-next swiper-button-white\" role=\"button\"><\/a><a aria-label=\"Pause Slideshow\" class=\"wp-block-jetpack-slideshow_button-pause\" role=\"button\"><\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-jetpack-slideshow_pagination swiper-pagination swiper-pagination-white\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>One thing we\u2019ll be clear about though \u2013 <em>Ontos<\/em> is not really a horror game in a traditional sense.

While players will encounter horrific scenes, they won\u2019t be chased all the time by monsters (like in some of our past games like <em>Soma<\/em> and <em>Amnesia<\/em>). Our game is complex and layered, and we want the tension to be more personal and cerebral rather than imminent danger from monsters \u2013 making players think \u201cam I making the right decisions here?
