Pixel Knight’s Unreal Engine 4 adventure game Empathy has come a long way since the indie developer started it 2012, with the game now getting approval for a Steam page and releasing its first HD gameplay trailer, which you can see above.

Empathy is an adventure game that focuses on narrative, but also encourages exploration thanks to its breathtakingly beautiful world. In the game, players are accompanied by a spirit that takes them through a dying and abandoned world, experiencing the story of the land’s past through the lingering memories of the people who had once lived there.

Blinking against the light, you step into a world that seems broken apart, almost dead… Yet there is a pulse, beating faintly in the back of your mind. What has happened in this place, where the people are gone and their memories echo in the silence? Where emotions appear as physical things, hanging in the air, just waiting for someone to reach out…

Empathy is a first-person, action adventure game with a strong focus on storytelling and exploration. Players will find themselves in a surreal world, made from people’s emotions and memories, which they can manipulate and explore. Those lost memories are the key to rebuilding the crumbling world back to its former state, discovering its mysterious past and halting the impending apocalypse. Through its innovative narrative mechanics the game will challenge the player to explore and gain an understanding of the weird world they are traveling through.

Empathy is currently on schedule for a September 2016 release for both PC and Mac.
