The Medium marks a huge leap forward for Bloober Team, the Polish studio behind many of the past generations iconic horror titles such as Layers of Fear, Observer, and Blair Witch. Not only is this their first current generation title, but its also the first of Microsofts exclusive Xbox Series X/S titles to launch, given the year-long delay of Halo Infinite. Furthermore, for the studio itself, The Medium is the developers first foray into more cinematic, third-person game design, which in and of itself has many new trials and tribulations to overcome.
