View the official gameplay trailer here:
“You are a newly employed department officer within the Ministry of a totalitarian State. While you are poised to have an illustrious career and possibly become Prime Minister someday; the way up won’t be easy. So, how high up the career ladder will you climb? The choice is still yours to make!”
– Evgeny Sister, Producer – Alawar Premium
With its strong Orwellian theme; the first original Beholder game garnered the attention of multiple publications and gaming communities; and was featured on Metacritic’s 100 Most Talked About Games of 2016 list. It was also awarded IGN Russia’s Best Adventure Game of 2016; one of 8 finalists of GDC’s Best in Play 2017 and was recognized in numerous categories; at Moscow’s DevGamm Awards. Beholder 2 intends to deliver the same award-winning experience to players.
“Beholder 2 shows another side to the Orwellian dystopia; ‘The Ministry.’ While we continued to stick with rich stories, moral choices and multiple endings; this time we’ve ramped up on the overall absurdity.”
