Press release:
Catania, Italy – September 10, 2024.
The Sydney-based (Australia) indie games publisher Blowfish Studios and Catania-based (Italy) indie games developer Drakkar Dev, are today very excited and happy to announce that their dark fairytale third-person adventure “Mirage 7“, is now in development for PC (Steam, GOG, and EGS) and consoles (PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X/S, and Xbox One).

Mirage 7, the narrative-driven action-adventure from developer Drakkar Dev and publisher Blowfish Studios, weaves a hauntingly beautiful tale to PlayStation 5|4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, PC and Mac via Steam, Epic Game Store, and GOG.

Embark on a desperate quest as intrepid adventurer Nadira, who seeks the impossible from the lost Princess Taishma: bringing her sister back from the dead. Brave an alluring, dangerous world filled with challenging environmental puzzles, dastardly dangerous enemies, and a deeply captivating narrative.

Survive deserts inspired by a mix of Arabian Nights and science fiction, slaying giant insects, ghastly ghouls, and daunting abominations with Nadira’s trusty dagger and precise slingshot. Enlist the problem-solving prowess of Jiji, her clever lizard companion, to decipher cryptic puzzles while collecting precious items to craft lethal new tools. Customize a desirable experience with three different combat difficulties and puzzle assistance options.

Explore forgotten temples and underground oases on the journey to the legendary Palace of the Moon. Encounter mysterious characters and earn their trust — or their detestation. Is the enigmatic overseer Vizier (voiced by Dying Light 2 and Chernobylite’s Andy Mack) trustworthy? What are the Witch of Jala’s true intentions? Unravel each thread in a twisting tale of struggle, loss, deceit, and betrayal.

“Mirage 7 offers an unforgettable story with dynamic, narrative-driven gameplay,” said Manlio Greco, founder, Drakkar Dev.

“We’ve crafted a game where daring explorers can truly immerse themselves in the world and experience a narrative that will keep them on their toes until the very end!”

Mirage 7 delivers majesty and wonder to PC and Mac via Steam, Epic Game Store, GOG, PlayStation 5|4, Xbox Series X|S, and Xbox One.
