Platform(s): Xbox Series X|S, PC Release Date: January 28th, 2020 Genre: Horror Price: $49.99 USD or free with Xbox Game Pass Player(s): 1 Format: Digital ESRB Rating: M Developer: Bloober Team Publisher: Bloober Team Reviews GameSpot (9/10): And to that end, The Medium's conclusion sticks with you; it's one last horrifying reminder that trauma may not define a person, but it can have consequences we can't even begin to foresee if it's not adequately dealt with and simply left to fester over time. I can't say I enjoyed the ending to The Medium, but I am deeply satisfied with how it sets up the inescapable nature of its horrifying conclusion. GameWatcher (8.5/10): Despite its linearity, I’d argue that The Medium is a genuinely chilling ghost story that’s sure to leave a lasting impression. The splitscreen effects make for quite a few memorable moments, and there’s no denying the growing sense of accomplishment as you solve difficult puzzles and make your way through the cursed resort. It may not be on the same level as some of its inspirations, but I’d definitely recommend The Medium to any fan of classic survival horror. OST The Medium is a third-person psychological horror game that features patented dual-reality gameplay and an original soundtrack co-composed by Arkadiusz Reikowski and Akira Yamaoka. Immerse yourself in the disturbing and oppressive atmosphere of the game thanks to the original ‘dual’ soundtrack co-created by Akira Yamaoka and Arkadiusz Reikowski.

Dat vind ik altijd het mooie van de Xbox community... Wij blijven er heel nuchter onder, als er een game van dit kaliber op onze console verschijnt. Persoonlijk hoop ik nog op een ingame geest met een lesbische relatie, dat zou echt grensverleggend zijn
