You’ll play as Swann, one of the four friends. The dialogue you pick or the interactions you have will heavily influence what happens. The game seems to go all-in with the immersion this time around, visually and dialogue-wise.
A shot in the trailer shows Swann viewing her friends through her camcorder, which is an exciting feature in the game. Pick it up and record the world around you as you explore new places and interact with people.
