Dear Esther: Landmark Edition Preview

Dear Esther, developed by The Chinese Room, immerses you in a stunningly realised world, a remote and desolate island somewhere in the outer Hebrides.”A deserted island... a lost man... memories of a fatal crash... a book written by a dying explorer." As you step forwards, a voice begins to read fragments of a letter: "Dear Esther..." - and so begins a journey through one of the most original first-person games of recent years.

Abandoning traditional gameplay for a pure story-driven experience, Dear Esther fuses its beautiful environments with a breathtaking soundtrack to tell a powerful story of love, loss, guilt and redemption.

Dear Esther: Landmark Edition features a Directors' Commentary mode that allows players to explore the island and learn what inspired the game and how it was crafted by The Chinese Room and Rob Briscoe.
