ZERO PARADES: For Dead Spies – Features & Gameplay Trailer

Siim “Kosmos” Sinamäe, Principal Writer on ZERO PARADES and Writer on Disco Elysium, said the following:

“It is important for us that the gameplay mechanics support our narrative and tell a story in itself, not the other way around,

More often than not, narration in games simply exists to explain gameplay. We design features to uplift the story; to make the invisible – your mental state or spycraft for instance – observable.

It builds upon our experience of creating Disco Elysium by introducing new ideas, it’s really an evolution of the cRPG concept.”

ZERO: PARADES: For Dead Spies will release for the PC via Steam, the Epic Games Store, and GOG on May 21.

For console players on the PlayStation 5, ZERO PARADES: For Dead Spies will release later this year for the platform.
