Directive 8020

Directive 8020 is developed and published by Supermassive Games, the studio behind Until Dawn and The Quarry. It released on May 12, 2026, for Windows, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S. Earth is dying, and the colony ship Cassiopeia crash-lands on Tau Ceti f carrying humanity’s last hope, only for its crew to discover they aren’t alone on the planet.

Sobre el juego

Directive 8020 continues Supermassive’s cinematic, choice-driven horror formula but moves the setting into deep space. Players guide the surviving crew of the Cassiopeia through branching decisions that determine who lives, who dies, and how the story ultimately resolves. An alien organism capable of mimicking its prey turns every encounter into a question of trust, since threats may not always look like threats until it’s too late.

The game’s Turning Points system lets players rewind key decisions to explore different branches, find hidden paths, or attempt to save crew members who would otherwise die. This gives the story a replayable structure without abandoning the tension of a blind first playthrough. Composer Jason Graves, known for his work on horror soundtracks, provides an original score alongside licensed tracks that reinforce the game’s sense of cosmic dread.
