Neocell Factory announces Resonance

(Montreal, Canada - October 06, 2003) – Imagine a time where everything you believe and think you know becomes blurred and uncertain, a time where your darkest secrets, emotions and desires can be painstakingly extracted from your very soul and brought to light. Imagine a troubled age where speaking a few lighthearted words can turn into a death sentence and where religion mixes with politics to bend a changing society. These confusing times are recorded by history as ‘The Renaissance’.

In Resonance, you play the role of Faye Wynter, a witch constantly hounded by the Inquisition while she slowly discovers the meaning behind her special powers. Everywhere you turn, society reeks of corruption and deceit. Who will you trust? Will you take the path set before you or does Destiny have something else planned for you?

Resonance is a new survival horror RPG developed with the Gamebryo engine from NDL. Setting itself apart from the tedious camera angles of traditional survival horror games, Resonance lets you play a character in 3rd person perspective. For details: www.neocell-factory.com/resonance.

Currently developped on Xbox, Resonance is scheduled for a Q4 2004 release.
