A game set in a futuristic GTA-style universe... MindsEye, developed by Build a Rocket Boy, has been available on PC, PS5 and Xbox Series since June 10, 2025. Presented at State of Play on February 12, this single-player action-adventure thriller plunges players into the near future, in the fictional city of Redrock. Set between artificial intelligence and conflicts of interest, the story features Jacob Diaz, a former soldier in search of the truth about his past and a mysterious brain implant, the MindsEye.
"Immerse yourself in Redrock, the setting for MindsEye, where advanced technology is an integral part of everyday life. AI, robotics and neural implants have reshaped society, bringing both new opportunities and risks."
In this world shaped by technology, Redrock appears as a setting where AI, robotics and brain implants are ubiquitous. According to the studio,"the line between corporate power and government control has become blurred - raising the question of who is really in power". The urban environment is designed to be dynamic, with integrated narrative elements, allowing different facets of this futuristic society to be explored.
Gameplay alternates between strategic combat and driving phases."MindsEye draws you into intense encounters - on foot, behind the wheel, and in the air - where every decision can mean the difference between survival and defeat," says Build a Rocket Boy in a PlayStation Blog post. Confrontations require adaptation to opposing strategies, exploiting the environment to survive. In addition, chase sequences punctuate the experience, traversing a variety of urban and desert landscapes.
MindsEye is already available on the PS5 wishlist. Shall we pre-order?
