Shadowline: Origins is a narrative-driven action-adventure video game developed by Phantom Core Studios and published by Zenith Interactive. Announced on February 29, 2026, the game serves as a prequel to Shadowline: Echoes of War (2025) and explores the events leading up to the catastrophic failure of the Shadowline Project. It is scheduled for release on May 28, 2027, for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X/S.
Set decades before the events of Echoes of War, Origins follows the rise of the Shadowline Project, chronicling the creation of the experimental energy initiative designed to harness Earth’s magnetic core. Players will experience the political intrigue, scientific breakthroughs, and moral dilemmas faced by the project’s creators as they navigate escalating tensions between global powers, rogue factions, and ethical boundaries. As the project begins to spiral out of control, the game delves into the personal stories of its architects and the sacrifices they made that ultimately shaped the fractured world of Echoes of War.
