Directive 8020 – A Survival horror story-driven story

Did you enjoy playing Until Dawn, The Quarry, Little Nightmares III? Are you interested in a dark, horror, survival game with meaningful choices?

So you should have a look on the new project of Supermassive Games called Directive 8020!

What is the main story of directive 8020?

Directive 8020 is about the crew of the colony ship Cassiopeia crash-landing on the distant planet. They are hunted by a shapeshifting alien that can mimic the crew members. As the survivors try to escape the planet, they must navigate themes of paranoia, isolation, and fear of the unknown. Who among them can be trusted? as the alien turns the crew against each other.

Hunted by an alien organism capable of mimicking its prey (Shape-shifter), that’s an interesting story! You will be able to play five main protagonists. 1 – Laura Eisel, astronaut and senior mission officer modelled on Eleni Miariti (The Inpatient, Hidden Agenda) 2 – Brianna Young was raised to be confident, ambitious, and determined modelled on Lashana Lynch 3 – Josef Cernan, astronaut and technical officer modelled on Luis Augusto (The House of ashes, The Devil in Me) 4 – Commander Nolan Stafford modelled on Winston Thomas (Shattered State, Man of Medan, House of Ashes, Little Hope) 5 – Doctor Samantha Cooper modelled on Ashley Voom (Hidden Agenda, The Inpatient, Shattered State, Man of Medan, The Devil in Me, Scarlett)

The Alien Threat The alien organism has the ability to mimic its prey, including the human form, making it impossible to tell who is human and who is an alien impostor. The alien’s ability to impersonate the crew leads to intense feelings of paranoia and mistrust, as the crewmates are forced to decide who to trust. The game offers a story-driven experience with cinematic cutscenes, incorporates real-time gameplay, quick time events, and stealth to create a more intense survival horror experience. We are eager to play Directive 8020, apparently it will be released in 2026, probably in the first quarter. Let’s wait…
