Rock Paper Shotgun previews Ontos, Frictional’s lunar horror from the makers of Soma, focusing on a talking rat wall and a puzzle-driven, unsettling vibe shown in a 10-minute extended gameplay video; the developers hint at deeper lore, and the game is slated to release next year (2027) with early impressions leaning positive.
ONTOS is a sci-fi immersive puzzle game where you play as Aditi exploring Samsara, a moon hotel turned lab, and wrestling with the idea of consciousness stored in a rat-based server. The demo emphasizes non-linear puzzle solving, tactile exploration, and branching choices rather than traditional horror stalking, with resource management and environmental clues guiding your theories. The game promises multiple solutions and different outcomes, releasing in 2027 for Xbox Series X|S and PC with Play Anywhere.
