The game states clearly that it doesn’t intend to hold your hand, and as such you’re dumped into the world without much to go on. As he wanders around a large map he stumbles across bodies of the kidnappers, and learns of an ancient force hiding away, and uses his supernatural abilities to visualise the scenes.

The Vanishing of Ethan Carter is a first-person mystery title in which players control a Detective with a supernatural ability -more on that soon- who is on a case to find a missing boy, Ethan Carter.

However, fast forward to 2018 and the Xbox One version has arrived. The game also landed on PS4 around this time, and as such it was exclusive to PC and PS4. These people created a title back in 2013 called, The Vanishing of Ethan Carter, which eventually saw a Redux version arrive in 2015, with the game being remade in the Unreal Engine 4 rather than the previous, Unreal Engine 3.

A handful of developers that used to be part of Developer, People Can Fly teamed up to create their own development studio, The Astronauts.
