Press release:
15th July 2022 Québec, Canada & Munich, Germany:
A bizarre mist – the Brume – is disconnecting a rural mining village from its quiet reality and disrupting the balance of nature. But where is it coming from?

“Kona II: Brume“, the upcoming single-player first-person narrative-adventure game and sequel to the celebrated Kona – both developed by Parabole and published by Ravenscourt – will immerse players directly into Detective Carl Faubert’s investigation. The game offers a unique story-driven experience due to the omniscient narrator.

Set in the rural landscape of northern Canada in the 1970s, Kona II: Brume has you fighting to survive the Brume that twists the realities of the region and the unforgiving wilderness. Detective Carl Faubert has set out to solve the mystery and you have to step into his shoes – What dark truth lies hidden in the mist?

A teaser trailer and a bunch of new screenshots are available, giving you a first peak into the snowy landscapes of 1970s northern Canada.
