Dead Man's Diary Coming to PlayStation 5

TML-Studios has announced Dead Man’s Diary, coming PlayStation 5 later this year. Developed on Unreal Engine 5, the game blends narrative-driven action-adventure with survival gameplay.

Dead Man’s Diary immerses players in a dystopian, post-apocalyptic world. Set in a post-nuclear world, the protagonist, a bunker dweller, is forced to venture into the outside world due to dwindling supplies. Unarmed and vulnerable, he navigates the treacherous, secret-laden landscape of this post-apocalyptic realm.

The game offers a distinctive mix of gameplay elements from various genres. Classic survival is combined with intricate crafting and exploration of hostile terrains. The essential survival tasks like finding shelter and food remain, but the game also incorporates a compelling storyline and realistic puzzles.
