These abilities allow players to attack enemies using supernatural forces while developing different approaches to combat encounters.
The Genesis Configuration also helps players solve environmental puzzles and manipulate sections of the Labyrinth, an important location within the game’s supernatural setting.
By combining offensive abilities with exploration mechanics, the system connects combat progression to the game’s broader environment.
Survival Horror Gameplay Features Multiple Enemy Types
The game challenges players to survive encounters with several categories of enemies, including wretches, deviants, cultists, and powerful infernal priests.
These adversaries serve as obstacles throughout the protagonist’s journey.
