Gamer Girl
A new FMV title, Gamer Girl, is on its way to us this September where we will need to help said Gamer Girl survive some next level horrors
Fans of the FMV style of video game and games that have branching narratives will need to keep an eye out for the upcoming Gamer Girl. No, we are not talking about another streamer out there trying to make it famous but the next title coming to us from FMV Future and Wales Interactive for the PS4, Xbox One, Switch, and PC this September. You might be able to guess a little as to what is going on just from the name of Gamer Girl, but it looks like there will be much more to this playable movie here. Like the fact that we will actually have choices to make as the moderator of here stream that could lead to various different outcomes. All with some truly branching paths by the looks of what we have here.
Also interesting for Gamer Girl, unlike other FMV titles it looks like this one was much more improvised instead of following a script. This could lead to something a little more intimate and immersive given the true reactions we can get here. Even if it is all recorded, so was The Blair Witch Project and Paranormal Activity and those did rather well. You can see a little slice of how Gamer Girl will flow just a bit lower but as this is a teaser, I have a feeling we will get a little more soon or just be fully sidelined by the launch in over a month or so. Have a look and see what is going on now.
Gamer Girl — Teaser
Wales Interactive and FMV Future are delighted to reveal Gamer Girl — a new multi-branching FMV game, set in the world of online streaming. Gamer Girl is coming to PC, PS4, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch this September. Adopt the role of moderator for up and coming streamer ‘Abicake99’, who’s back online after the mysterious disappearance of her friend Becky. Featuring multi-branched narrative and real-time chat simulation, your role as moderator is to control the stream, level up mod powers, guide Abi’s choices and uncover the threat she faces by an anonymous predator who hides in the stream’s chat.
Developed by FMV Future with the writer and director of The Bunker. Co-developed and Published by Wales Interactive, who brought you The Complex, Late Shift, and Maid Of Sker.
Gamer Girl is the first live-action video game to have been entirely improvised by the cast, in a production style similar to The Blair Witch Project and Paranormal Activity. The actors would react to pre-scripted stream text as well as live chat that was written during film takes by the scriptwriter.
The first multi-branching FMV video game with a micro-management meta-game — where players constantly have to analyse and react to a constant stream of chat comments whilst texting Abi and helping her make the right choices.

If there is more to share for Gamer Girl, we will throw it up on the site for you. Just be sure to keep checking in for all of that and much more.
