Developed and published by Daedalic. Coming to PS4, Xbox One and Steam in 2017.

State of Mind is a futuristic thriller game delving into transhumanism. The game explores themes of separation, disjuncture and reunification, in a world that is torn between a dystopian material reality and a utopian virtual future.

Employing multiple playable characters and two separate game worlds, State of Mind explores the existential drama that develops in a society on the brink of post-material existence.

You are Richard Nolan, a father and journalist from Berlin who discovers that he and his wife and son have been subjects to mind uploads. Richard’s upload, however, has gone wrong. As a result, he is still living in real-life reality, but an incomplete second version of his self also exists in a secret Virtual Reality project.

Upon realizing that he is literally a torn man, Richard sets out on a dramatic and dangerous search for salvation. He aims to reunite with his family, as well as with his own split self. On his way, he soon realizes that this journey isn’t only about him, but about the future of mankind.

I only know of these guys as developing those Deponia 2D games I own but have never played. This looks really different but I absolutely love it.

Looks interesting. That song was a bit jarring though.

On his way, he soon realizes that this journey isn’t only about him, but about the future of mankind.
Was getting into the story synopsis up until that bit.

This looks very promising. I like the visual style a lot. One of the more interesting games announced so far. It's from the same person who made The Moment of Silence and Overclocked so the story could be interesting too.
 
Really like that trailer good use of neo-soul. Have never played a Deponia game the game designer is Martin Gatenfur iold interview with him here: https://youtu.be/mEnZHcWK-gU

Not sure if he is part of deadelic's dev teams or has done games for them before surprisingly not a lot of info on him on the net.
Nvm about above found him on moby games: http://www.mobygames.com/developer/sheet/view/developerId,51101/

Looks like has done plenty of point and click games might be his first for deadelic anyone know if his x-files game is any good?
