Bloober Team has confirmed that Observer: System Redux will be released on PC, having previously confirmed the game for PS5 and Xbox Series X. The PC version will have the same upgrades that have been confirmed for the PS5 and Xbox Series X versions, including the visual upgrades, including 4K support, and gameplay upgrades such as improved stealth and neuronal interrogation sequences. Observer: System Redux will also add three new missions called Errant Signal, Her Fearful Symmetry, and It Runs in the Family.

Players that already own Observer on PC will not get these upgrades for free. Instead, there will be a cost with the upgrade fee currently reduced by 80% and it will remain that way until September 15th.

Piotr Babieno, Bloober Team CEO, said:

“When we announced Observer: System Redux for next-gen consoles, we had a huge response from our PC fans asking if the remaster would be coming to their platform of choice. We originally only planned to bring the game to consoles, but seeing the feedback we’ve heard from the community, we’re bringing the game to PC as well. As a way to thank our community, we’re putting this upgrade plan in place and looking into options to do the same on console if possible.”

There is a demo now available on Steam for Observer: System Redux, and you can download that from here. Observer follows Dan Lazarski, an Observer, who has been voiced by the late Rutger Hauer. In the game, Dan Lazarski is an investigator who can view the memories and thoughts of suspects. The setting is the year 2084 and it follows an incredibly dark period for humanity where thousands were killed by a virus brought on by human augmentation. As Observers have some augmentations they are not popular among the rest of the population.

In our review for Observer Tuffcub wrote:

If you don’t like ‘walking sims’ then Observer isn’t going to change your mind, even if it does include some rudimentary detective work. However, if you like to be swept away by a story and pulled in to a world where every door has a new experience behind it, then close the curtains, turn off the lights, crank up the surround sound and immerse yourself in this great cyberpunk horror tale.
