Turin, Italy-based developer Unrelated Studio has announced exploration puzzle adventure game Lofsong for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, and PC (Steam, Microsoft Store). A release date was not announced.
Here is an overview of the game, via its Steam page:
About
Explore, listen, and unravel a hidden language buried in stone and sound. An exploration puzzle adventure set across vast brutalist landscapes shaped by deep time ages.
How Can We Communicate With the Future?
Somewhere inside stone and sound, a hidden language is waiting to be heard.
Lofsong is an art-driven exploration puzzle adventure set across vast brutalist landscapes shaped by deep time. You play as a childlike figure dressed in a weird and bulky headgear, accompanied by a shapeshifting origami companion. No dialogue. No map. Only the world, and what it still remembers.
A Wordless World That Speaks
Earth has been a dead planet for a long time. What remains is a gray desert of dust and ashes, an Exclusion Zone stretching for miles into an everlasting nuclear winter. The deeper you travel toward the epicenter, the further you fall into the cosmic unknown.
Listen for what vibrates, what echoes, what remains.
Into the Unknown
Your companion shifts shape to carry you across the Dust Sea, following the forces of nature. A kite, a glider, a sailboat. New forms unlock as the world opens up. The game rewards your attention.
This Place is a Message
Every monument in Lofsong was built to be read. Geometry and sound work together to reveal what words never could. Play the sculptures. Unlock the mechanisms. Listen to what the stone remembers.
There is More Than What You See or Hear
Beneath the surface lies a second layer of mysteries. Secrets encoded in stone, in sound, in the world beyond the screen. The game does not end when the credits roll.
