Mukti: Concept

The developers in a blog post published on PlayStation wrote: “Mukti isn’t just a game. It’s a journey of discovery, redemption, and the impact of hidden narratives in a first-person exploration set within the authentic backdrop of an Indian museum.”

 

It added: Following her grandfather’s mysterious disappearance amid accusations of heinous crimes, Arya returns to find the museum he owned vandalised and abandoned. Through the silent echoes of the past, she pieces together a narrative of heritage, compassion and obscured truths, questioning everything she knew about his existence. What truths lie in her grandfather’s museum?”

 

Players will get to uncover layers of mystery as the story unfolds. They will also be discovering ancient secrets and a world that blurs the line between myth and reality.
