Most of the game consists of navigating the twin worlds, attempting to piece together the mystery of what happened at Niwa. For those with a 4K HDR TV, this is one of the most graphically impressive titles you'll have encountered, with only the uncanny valley effect of the human characters' faces breaking what is, for all accounts, near-photo realism.įor those with a 4K HDR TV, this is one of the most graphically impressive titles you'll have encountered.ĭespite the glossy production values and frankly stunning visuals, The Medium is, structurally, something of a throwback to point-and-click adventures of yore, right down to exploring set areas with fixed camera angles. It's rather impressive, and a real selling point for the Series X in particular as it handily powers the rendering of two distinct worlds simultaneously. While certain sections of the game will see Marianne fully in one world or the other, most often you'll explore both at once, the screen split in half with 'mortal' Marianne and 'ghost' Marianne controlled in concert. Hopping between the veil is ultimately a narrative conceit to establish the game's impressive technological clout. It's a spooky enough locale in its own right, a labyrinth of dimly lit corridors and crumbling architecture that feels more sanatorium than Center Parcs, but for Marianne there's twice the terror, as she can cross into the world of the dead, where the layout is the same but filled with remnants of the anguished dead.
