In a new interview with Jacek Zieba, producer of The Medium
horror game in the Polish development team Bloober Team, the
producer talks about their admiration for Silent Hill and Resident Evil
and how both of them were inspirations for a game that we will
experience between the human world and the spirit world at the
same time.
The game’s use of the semi-fixed angle camera was to provide
a stronger cinematic feel to the experience, which is at the same
time an expression of the developers’ love for the classic
versions of Silent Hill and Resident Evil. Zieba expressed his
admiration for Silent Hill 2 specifically, which he sees as one of
the best horror games in the history of the industry and one of
the most important sources of inspiration for their game.
The Medium will be released on January 28th next year on the
PC and the new generation of Xbox devices.
