ZA/UM has revealed C4, a spy role-playing thriller reminiscent of Disco Elysium. A teaser trailer for the project has been released on the studio’s YouTube channel.
While not a direct sequel to Disco Elysium, C4 will share many similarities with the company’s previous hit. Players will take on the role of an Operative working for a “contested global power,” tasked with seeking “truth and influence.” The developers emphasize that C4 will focus on the mind, which is portrayed as more fragile than the real world and can be “erased, changed, or remade.”
Writers Siim Sinamäe and Jim Ashilevi highlight that C4 will significantly differ from Disco Elysium. They also mention the importance of failures, which will not lead to game over but will instead be enjoyable in themselves, making every player choice meaningful.
Currently, C4 has no release date or announced platforms. The developers promise to share more details later, but have not specified any timeframe.
