About the Game

Manhattan belongs to the machines. You belong to a ghost. Possessed by the vengeful spirit of a heavyweight boxer, stumble through the locked-down streets to find his missing son before the singularity consumes the city whole.

  • Two Hearts, One Soul: Play as a first-person phantom split between two third-person hosts. Your left hand directs an erratic outcast and your right hand guides a delusional fitness vlogger. Synchronize their movements to orchestrate stealth takedowns and solve environmental puzzles.

  • Stolen Identities: The machines know who you are, but the surviving humans are easily deceived. Disguise yourself as one of the many inhabitants prowling the streets at night, and hide in plain sight among the strange factions and cults that emerged in the chaos.

  • Leave No Trace: Hide bodies in alleyway dumpsters, scale rooftops to bypass checkpoints, and distract the sweeping security feed of patrolling drones.

  • An Interconnected World: Experience the city as a seamless, persistent nightmare. Rather than loading into isolated missions, physically navigate a sprawling labyrinth of high-rises and subterranean shortcuts.

  • Asymmetric Local Co-Op: Built from the ground up as a demanding single-player experience. However, an optional, seamless co-op mode unlocks after the prologue, allowing a second player on the desktop monitor to take direct control of one of the characters.
