Dive into the shadowy depths of Los Angeles with *The Directorate: Novitiate*, a thrilling narrative-driven, single-player, third-person action-RPG set in a magic-infused world of 2006. Step into the shoes of Kana Luna, also known as Mercury, and immerse yourself in a gripping tale where you'll blend guns, magic, and pivotal choices within the Dark Syndicate. Developer Nesting Games aims to deliver one of 2025's most unforgettable gaming experiences.
Engage in third-person gunplay intertwined with magical spells as you embark on a quest to apprehend a supernatural serial killer. Along your journey, you'll enhance both your offensive and defensive abilities, giving you control over your gameplay. But your influence extends beyond combat; Nesting Games emphasizes, "Even romance has risks. Every choice has consequences. Choose whether to stay loyal to the Edicts of the Directorate or retain your humanity in the real world." The theme of duality is central, with Nesting suggesting that you'll "navigate a treacherous path at night as a magical hitman and juggle your normal life during the day. When your two lives collide, beware who gets caught in the clash."
