Studio Reset Announces Paranormal Detective Adventure The Eventide

Studio Reset, a new studio founded by former BioWare developers, announced its first game, The Eventide, on July 30, 2026. The game is a paranormal detective mystery adventure set in a neon-lit Canadian city where supernatural events are common. Players run an investigation office and dispatch agents to investigate cases. Each case begins with a choice between two agents, each of whom perceives the world differently, leading to different discoveries about the same event. Agents have unique abilities, from basic investigative skills to supernatural ones like psychic intuition, and they investigate locations such as rain-soaked alleys, dusty libraries, and ruined radio stations. All clues found are added to a shared investigation notebook, allowing players to piece together a fuller picture of each case that neither agent could assemble alone. Once evidence is gathered, players connect it to uncover the truth and fill in the blanks of case reports. Solved cases open new clues, locations, and mysteries. The game is planned for PC via Steam, where wishlist registration is now available. Studio Reset was established by veterans of Mass Effect and Dragon Age, aiming to create smaller, more focused original games.
