Time-Bending 2.5D Action Game Retrace the Light Releases Next Month

Developer Xiaming Game and publisher GlintForge have just announced that the time-bending 2.5D action-adventure Retrace the Light, is set to launch on PC via Steam and Epic Games Store November 20th, 2025 and is in development for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S. 

In the year 3323, psychological issues like paranoia and obsessive thought can be cured from the inside-out thanks to mankind’s new invention - Primus, a supreme intelligence being. This almighty AI soon begins to alter the mental states of those deemed “unstable” in order to create a safer, sanitized future. 

In the game you play as Enforcer Decem, a warrior capable of diving into digital recreations of paranoid minds called Mirrormazes in order to destroy destructive thoughts. After a failed mission wipes Decem’s memories, he sets out on a mission to relearn the reason for his existence by retrieving memory fragments scarred across the world. 

Dash and slash your way through Mirrormares, mental anguish manifesting as mechanized foes. Retrace to set up enemy-interrupting surprise attacks from unexpected angles, solve puzzles where the confines of time and space block the path forward and more. 

Retrace the Light is set to launch on PC via Steam and Epic Games Store for $17.99 on November 20th, 2025 and later for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S. Be sure to wishlist the game to keep up to date on future news.
