Beholder 4 puts you inside the Ministry as a double agent

Alawar announced Beholder 4 on November 9. You play a junior Ministry official who secretly works with the underground. On the clock, you process citizens’ files and sign orders. Away from your desk, you can steal keys, forge documents and plant listening devices.

The two jobs can put you on opposite sides of the same case. In one scenario, your boss orders you to identify a suspected traitor while the resistance asks you to help that person escape. A promotion can get you into classified archives, but it also puts arrest orders on your desk. Alawar has opened the Steam wishlist and released a teaser. A release date is still pending.

The danger follows you home

Police searches add another decision after the workday ends. You can hide incriminating objects or destroy documents before officers find them, but destroying information also means losing it. If a search goes wrong, you may have to lie or use your official position to protect yourself.

Steam currently lists a single-player experience with Spanish and Brazilian Portuguese text. The wishlist is open, but there is no confirmed release date or playable launch version yet.
