Publisher Raw Fury and developer Out of the Blue have revealed the first extended trailer for America Arcadia during today’s Summer Game Fest. The world premiere gives players the first detailed look at the upcoming 2.5D platformer and first-person puzzler, where players explore the unique stories of two characters – each with their own distinct gameplay – whose lives and fates are intertwined.
You can watch the extended trailer below. It first premiered during Summer Game Fest.
Trevor is just an average person living a mundane life, enjoying his daily routine and the small little things that make him happy. In the real world that wouldn’t be a problem, but in Arcadia, not being popular enough means trouble. But he’s found help from a mysterious voice promising to guide him through American Arcadia’s backstage to his freedom. Is this offer real, or merely a gimmick to raise audience ratings?

Under the eyes of countless viewers, popular citizens lead a carefree life, but those who fall out of the audience’s favor risk a more dangerous outcome…
