Disco Elysium authors founded Longdue studio and are working on a psychological RPG

ZA/UM, the studio that created the mega-successful RPG Disco Elysium, has experienced many scandals, which led to the departure of many developers from the studio. And some of them founded a new studio to create a spiritual successor to Disco Elysium.

Here's What We Know

Longdue is an independent studio founded by people from the team that worked on Disco Elysium and its unreleased sequel. With the support of private investors, Longdue intends to create a psychologically deep RPG. The team is also bringing in talent from across the industry, including veterans from Bungie, Rockstar, and Brave At Night.

The first details about the game are already available:

Longdue's debut RPG explores the interplay between consciousness and subconscious, the visible and the invisible. In a world where the choice is between the character's psyche and the environment, players will travel through an ever-changing world shaped by both internal and external forces.

The game introduces the innovative mechanics of a "psychogeographical role-playing game", where every decision changes both the world and the characters that inhabit it. In this experience, the boundaries between consciousness and the environment blur, colliding and transforming with every choice.

Longdue strives to create games that evoke emotional and intellectual resonance. The studio is striving to build a reputation for consistently delivering quality, with a focus on depth and narrative integrity. So for now, we can only follow them and wish them luck.
