What The Event is
The Event was released in 2026. It is available on PC (Microsoft Windows) only. It runs on Unreal Engine 4.
The premise, in the publisher's words
You wake up in an asylum with no memory of who you are or how you got there. With the help of clues, notes and testimonies, will you be able to piece together the story of what happened to you and the people who were there the day it all happened? Wander in the dark and find the truth.
How it plays
Its themes are horror. It is a single-player game with no multiplayer component.
What you need to run it
The minimum specification calls for Intel Core i5-4460 / AMD Ryzen 3 1200, 6 GB RAM and NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970 4 GB / AMD Radeon RX 570 4 GB. An 6GB memory requirement is modest by current standards; most machines sold in the last five years clear it. Install size is roughly 16GB. Both tiers are compared side by side on the requirements page, and you can check your own parts against them without installing anything.
