Psychological Horror ‘The Medium’ Delayed Until January 2021 for Additional Polish

Bloober Team announced that their psychological horror adventure, The Medium, will be delayed on Xbox Series X and PC from December 10 to a new release date of January 28, 2021.

In a statement, the developer sites the impact of COVID-19 and the current schedule of other games on the market as a reason for the delay. However, the team will use this added time to polish the game’s psychological horror themes further. There will still be more information about the game released soon.

During gameplay, players will assume Marianne’s role, a medium hounded by visions living and interacting across two worlds, the real and the spirit realm. Everything needs to be questioned during gameplay. Players need to view events from two different angles, both of which contain scary themes.

The game will be composed by Akira Yamaoka, who is known for the Silent Hill series. This is in hopes to create an atmosphere for both of the words within the game.

Currently, it seems like The Medium will be exclusive to Xbox Series X and PC. The team has not announced if it will be coming to other platforms, but they seem to be focused on Microsoft’s next-gen console from their messaging.
