The next-gen remaster of Observer, newly titled Observer: System Redux was recently teased by developers Bloober Team. Now, the first trailer for Observer: System Redux has been released. According to the trailer, the next-gen title is due for ‘Holiday 2020’. The original Observer was released in August 2017, on PS4, Xbox One, and PC.
Set in the year 2084, in a rather bleak and dystopian Krakow, the cyberpunk thriller follows late Blade Runner actor Rutger Hauer, who sadly passed away last year. He stars in the role of Daniel Lazarski, a detective, or ‘Observer’, investigating a mystery in an apartment block.
Bloober reveals that Observer: System Redux will feature updated visuals, as well as enhanced gameplay and new story elements. Bloober, known for Layers Of Fear, also states that Observer: System Redux will be coming to next-gen consoles. It would make sense then that the remaster would be available on PS5 and Xbox Series X.

With next-gen consoles in mind, Sony recently revealed PS5’s new ‘DualSense’ controller. Senior Vice President of Platform Planning & Management, Hideaki Nishino, unveiled the controller during the international announcement on Playstation’s official blogs.
Notable changes from its PS4 predecessor include, obviously, its name, as well as a new Share Button, now termed ‘Create.’
The most notable features on the controller include haptic feedback capabilities, adaptive triggers that assist with immersion, as well as a built-in speaker and new microphone. Lastly, the PS5 controller will include USB-C standard for power and physical link capabilities.
Recently, Bloober and Liongate announced that Blair Witch would be coming to the Nintendo Switch. It was revealed during Nintendo’s Indie World Showcase, with the horror-thriller set for a summer 2020 release.
