Industria Brings Cold War Intrigue, Sci-Fi Thrills

Dive into an alternate Berlin later this month.

Developer Bleakmill and publisher Headup have announced a release date for their upcoming surreal narrative FPS title, Industria.

Releasing on September 30th, Industria will throw players into a vast, eerie conspiracy at the fall of the Berlin Wall, in a narrative-heavy FPS that takes clear inspiration from the Silent Hill series and the films of David Lynch, with heavy atmosphere and distinct sections both in full color and in moody grayscale.

Per the preview’s press release:

INDUSTRIA is set in 1989 on the eve of the fall of the Berlin Wall. Playing as a scientist named Nora, you set out to search for your missing friend and lover, following a mystery that takes you into a parallel dimension to the city of Hakavik, where East Berlin’s brutalist architecture merges with strange technological apparatuses and futuristic robots.

Inspired by classic narrative FPS titles of the 2000s, INDUSTRIA blends a mind-bending story with satisfying gun combat. Armed with four firearms and a melee weapon to deal with the various mechanical monstrosities roaming the game’s dystopian landscape, you must carefully manage your resources as you gather intel if you hope to survive long enough to decode the mystery at the heart of this intriguing tale.

Having been in development for six years, Industria has been a passion project for its small creative team. David Jungnickel, Co-Founder at Bleakmill, said, “We’re really excited to give people a peek into the surreal sci-fi world our small team has been working so hard on. As our debut title we wanted to make something ambitious in its visuals and narrative, but also streamlined in its mechanics and experience. We can’t wait for everyone to experience all the twists and turns for themselves on September 30th.” 

Where Can I Play Industria?

Industria will be available on September 30th on PC via Steam, the Epic Games Store, and GOG.com.
