It Is Time To Mix The Two Worlds Of Twin Mirror

Twin Mirror

The launch of Twin Mirror is here and we get one more chance to discover more of the truth behind Twin Mirror now

Twin Mirror is finally here as December 1st is upon us and the game has launched on the PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X, and PC. A nice smattering of platforms to experience it all on if I do say so. Something that I am sure DontNod is glad to have to as it looks like this new and twisted world they have built needs to be seen by as many gamers out there as possible. Not that I think anyone would disagree at this point as Twin Mirror has been offering up an interesting take on the investigation style game. Unless I am way off and that will not be part of the core and we will just be seeing the protagonist going through many different mental issues along the way. Either way, I know I am in for this one.

It is obviously nice to know all of this, but it is always better to see it in motion and that is also what we have to share for Twin Mirror today as well. Thankfully, this launch trailer does not seem to be heading out to spoil much of the narrative and only the basics we should know before going into the game. It does make it feel like we will be relying more on the investigator and truth-seeker side of the character than the one that is looking to be accepted by society. Although, the way that is all made to sound, we could be looking at a true sociopath that is trying to blend in with society due to the lack of empathy and emotional understanding. That could be just me projecting a bit onto Twin Mirror based on this, but I do get that feeling. We can all download and give it a go right now to find out, though.

Twin Mirror — Launch Trailer


Following the tragic death of his best friend, Sam Higgs decides to pay him one last tribute and comes back to Basswood, his childhood town. It quickly becomes obvious that this little West Virginian city holds numerous dark secrets. The former investigative journalist employs his unique deductive skills to uncover the mysteries surrounding the city and its inhabitants. Confronted with his past, Sam is torn between his quest for truth and his desire to reconnect with his loved ones. Who can he really trust?

Sam’s unique analytical skills allow the player, through a Mind Palace, to relive his memories during flashback sequences, study the environment and gather clues allowing the simulation of multiple scenarios to deduct the course of events or predict the story’s key turning points. However, this particular trait can lead Sam to cut himself from the world and, sometimes hurt those around him.

That’s when the Double comes into play, a character only Sam can see. The Double is a representation of himself more emphatic and social. Sam can always rely on this ally to guide him through social interactions and navigate a society that sometimes rejects singularity. Through these human qualities, the Double can offer Sam an alternative when he needs to make important decisions.

Every decision, every interaction, and every discovery will influence the direction of Sam’s investigation and will ultimately determine how much of himself he’s willing to sacrifice. There are no right or wrong answers – each player will live a truly unique experience tailored by their very own decisions.

Did you forget that Twin Mirror was launching today and thus needed this nice reminder? Do you think that we will see a lot of investigative gameplay in this one or could it be something vastly different? Do you agree with the sociopath idea for the protagonist or is that in my own head and you think I should seek help? Let us all know down in the comments and then feel free to discuss it all as you wish. If there is more to share for Twin Mirror, we will certainly share it all here. Please keep checking in on the site for all of that and much more.
