Dive into the gripping world of *The Directorate: Novitiate*, a narrative-driven, single-player, third-person action-RPG set in the magical underbelly of Los Angeles in 2006. As Kana Luna, also known as Mercury, you'll navigate a thrilling blend of guns and magic while tackling the dark world of the Dark Syndicate. Developer Nesting Games is poised to make this one of 2025's standout games, promising a mix of intense gameplay and impactful storytelling.
In *The Directorate: Novitiate*, you'll embark on a mission to apprehend a supernatural serial killer, blending third-person gunplay with powerful magic spells. As you progress, you'll enhance both your offensive and defensive capabilities, giving you control over your gameplay experience. But the game doesn't stop at action; it extends its agency to the narrative. Nesting Games emphasizes that "Even romance has risks. Every choice has consequences." You'll face the critical decision of whether to adhere to the Edicts of the Directorate or preserve your humanity in the real world. The theme of duality runs deep, as you juggle your role as a magical hitman by night and maintain a normal life by day. Be cautious, as Nesting warns, "When your two lives collide, beware who gets caught in the clash."
