Back to the Dawn (Playstation 5)

Escape your unjust imprisonment and uncover the dark scheme that put you behind bars in the first place!

GUILTY UNTIL PROVEN INNOCENT

Back to the Dawn is a thrilling tale of crime, corruption, and politics. You’ve ended up in a maximum-security prison where you don’t really belong, and your goal is to escape by any means necessary. But that’s not all! You must also investigate the forces that rule the city and threaten to bring it all down. Will you uncover the dark scheme that reaches all the way to the top before it’s too late? Every choice matters, and the mayoral election is only three weeks away...

FOX OR PANTHER?

There are two different protagonists in this gripping story. First, we have Thomas the fox, a reporter who has been framed and thrown into prison for a crime he didn’t commit. He must work together with his lawyer on the outside to collect evidence and save himself.

The black panther Bob, on the other hand, is an undercover agent who’s simply tired of everything. But a personal tragedy brings him back for one last job inside the prison. Both Thomas and Bob are hunting for the truth. But who can you trust in a place like this?

A MASSIVE PRISON

This is a truly massive role-playing game with an immersive narrative of over 500,000 words, more than 100 handcrafted quests, multiple escape routes, and several possible endings. On your journey through the dark belly of the prison system, you will encounter 47 unique inmates, each with their own personality and agenda. Getting to know them is a must if you want to succeed, and it’s also one of the greatest joys of Back to the Dawn.

FIND YOUR OWN PLAYSTYLE

Every player will find their own unique way to tackle the challenges in Back to the Dawn. The game is absolutely packed with possibilities! Do you prefer to let your fists do the talking, hide in the shadows, or smooth-talk your fellow inmates to manipulate them? Will you be a model prisoner and keep your head down, or will you unleash chaos? Perhaps you’ll even join one of the game’s three gangs? No matter your approach, you’ll need to develop your skills, craft tools that suit your style, and claw your way out of this hellhole for good!
