Disco Elysium is a caliber of game that only comes once a generation. It strayed into areas relatively untouched by videogames, telling its narrative through unique mechanics and peerless storytelling. Feeling at times like a more bereft version of China Miéville’s Perdido Street Station combined with Planescape Torment, it is an RPG masterpiece that stands with the best in the genre. While fans have been desperate for a sequel that will most likely never appear, a spiritual successor is on the horizon thanks to a new developer made up of many of the minds behind Disco Elysium.
