The premise, in the publisher's words
"Set on board a deep space scientific vessel called The Persistence in the year 2521, the ship arrives at the site of a collapsing star 17,000 light years from earth. While conducting a major experiment, a horrific incident occurs mutating many of the crew. As The Persistence is pulled into the gravity of the collapsing star, the ship's computer, 'IRIS' wakes remaining members of the crew from cryogenic sleep - one at a time. Can you stay alive long enough to save The Persistence?"

How it was received
The Persistence holds a critic score of 77 out of 100. That places it above 56% of the 7,525 rated adventure games in our database, which average 72. Games released in 2018 averaged 69, so it scored 8 points above the year average.
What you need to run it
The minimum specification calls for Intel i5 4570, 8 GB RAM and NVIDIA GeForce GTX 750ti. An 8GB memory requirement is modest by current standards; most machines sold in the last five years clear it. Install size is roughly 5GB. Both tiers are compared side by side on the requirements page, and you can check your own parts against them without installing anything.
What it launched against
The Persistence launched on 24 June 2018, within three weeks of Vampyr, Among Us, Octopath Traveler and The Awesome Adventures of Captain Spirit. It reviewed better than 1 of the 4. It arrived 5 years into the PlayStation 4's life, so it was built for hardware developers already knew well.
Released around the same time: Vampyr, Among Us, Octopath Traveler, The Awesome Adventures of Captain Spirit.
