Description



Discover a dark mystery only a medium can solve. Explore the real world and the spirit world at the same time. Use your psychic abilities to solve puzzles spanning both worlds, uncover deeply disturbing secrets, and survive encounters with The Maw - a monster born from an unspeakable tragedy..



The Medium is a third-person psychological horror game that features patented dual-reality gameplay and an original soundtrack co-composed by Arkadiusz Reikowski and Akira Yamaoka.



Wield unique psychic abilities reserved for those with the gift. Travel between the realities or explore them both at the very same time. Use the Out of Body experience to investigate places where your real-world self can’t go. Create energy shields and deliver powerful spirit blasts to survive the spirit world and its otherworldly dangers.





Delve deep into a mature and morally ambiguous story, where nothing is what it seems and everything has another side. As a medium you see, hear and experience more than others, and with every new perspective you will change your perception on what happened at the Niwa resort.





Never-seen-before and officially patented gameplay that plays out across two worlds displayed at the same time. Explore the physical world and the spirit world simultaneously, and use the interactions between them to solve dual-reality puzzles, unlock new paths, and awaken memories of past events.





The Medium’s spirit world is a dark mirror reflection of our reality, a grim and unsettling place where our unpunished deeds, evil urges, and vile secrets manifest themselves and can take on a form. This world has been invented and designed under the inspiration of Zdzisław Beksiński’s paintings, Polish dystopian surrealist internationally recognized for his distinctive and strikingly ominous style.





Immerse yourself in the disturbing and oppressive atmosphere of the game thanks to the original ‘dual’ soundtrack co-created by Akira Yamaoka and Arkadiusz Reikowski. Yamaoka-san is a legendary Japanese composer best known for his work on the Silent Hill series; Reikowski is a Hollywood Music in Media Awards nominee who worked on such acclaimed horror games as Blair Witch, Layers of Fear, and Observer. Now they join their creative forces for the music and songs of The Medium.

I loved The Medium from start to end. 10/10

It has supreme graphics, an amazing story and brings me the nostalgia to the classic survival horror games with its fixed cameras, puzzles and notes. It also tries something new and unique with the two realities. I did not miss combat at all in this game. Great music score. I just love it and want more...
  • Supreme graphics, they feel real
  • The nostalgia to the classic survival horror games with its fixed cameras, puzzles and notes
  • Tries something new and unique with the two realities.
  • I found it to be exactly as long as it has to be. Great music
  • Every chapter is unique and the pacing is great.
  • Makes me want the return of Silent Hill even more
This isnt really a Good game the Story is okay the gameplay is dull and there is a massive lack of QoL improvements. For example you can't mostly interact with stuff when someone is talking or you will skip some dialogs because it is the same button as going back. The camera is sometimes wierd and I don't really like the controls. I played the old RE games and in my opinion they are way better. It has good moments and that's it. The game is also not really good optimised I had a few frame drops and I know someone who has a rtx 3080 and it was many times at 100% GPU at 1080p.
  • Story is okay
  • Game has some good moments
  • Not really scary
  • AI is sometimes wierd
  • Camera
The game has good gameplay, a good story and a hilarious visual that does not offend. It does not lack logical thinking. The only thing I would point out is that the demons themselves could get better processing, but this is purely my opinion. It is a hilarious piece that will definitely entertain
  • Gameplay and environment
  • A bit dull processing of enemies, demons
