Fresh off a successful and critically acclaimed PC launch, 11 bit studios’ surreal adventure game INDIKA is launching on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S on Friday, May 17th.
The latest offering from 11 bit studios’ publishing division, INDIKA is set in a surreal version of early 20th-century Russia, centering around a simple nun’s bizarre and spiritual journey. Developed by Odd Meter, console players will soon embark on this spiritual journey for themselves and delve into the deceptive nature of INDIKA’s story and gameplay.
INDIKA is the tale of a strong woman on a vital mission, uncovering her life’s true purpose. But beneath this surface, the easily observable outer layer, lies the soul, and its inner depths waiting to be explored.
Blending gameplay elements from adventure TPP games—including perplexing environmental puzzles, and even a glimpse of platforming—INDIKA offers much more than meets the eye. Its aesthetics, design, and gameplay are influenced heavily by this genre mix, however, its true essence lies in delivering cinematic storytelling reminiscent of the arthouse works of Yorgos Lanthimos, Ari Aster, and Darren Aronofsky. INDIKA focuses on its core purpose touching on philosophical beliefs and aiming to provoke reflection on delicate themes.
