SOMA

A new web series for SOMA has been released and it is aiming to bring us all deeper into the story behind SOMA with prequel events

If you've had the pleasure to play, start to play, or finish SOMA then you know one of the greatest selling points of the game is the story here. It is thought provoking, dark, and just an interesting tale to wrap around the horror events of this PS4 and PC title. In fact for some SOMA has left players wanting more out of Frictional Games in the way of said story. I'm looking for more story and gameplay personally but it looks like all we are getting at this time is an expansion into SOMA with a live-action mini-series that will be available on the web.

You can currently watch the first episode of SOMA's prequel story web-series right now but it looks like Frictional Games and Imagos Films will be bringing us a new part to the overall SOMA story for the next six to eight days. It is claimed that there will be a new episode released everyday over on Frictional Games' YouTube channel but it doesn't state if we will be getting new episodes during the weekend or if we are going to be willing that time with SOMA while we wait. Either makes sense as the last one will be on October 5^th so I guess we'll have to wait and see.

For those of you who have to play SOMA so far it doesn't look like there is much in the way of spoilers for the game as this mini-series has only started out with a bit of prequel and explanation into what started the whole ordeal in SOMA proper. Of course that might change as more episodes are released but I didn't see anything that would have spoiled the fun that Frictional Games has already set up in the game. I just hope some of the weirder events of SOMA are expanded upon here in the mini-series as it unfolds but as of now it is listed as only a prequel of sorts.

Have you had a chance to begin digging into the story of SOMA? If so are you intrigued by what you experienced? Do you think that this mini-series from Imagos Films should have had a bit more of a delay to allow more people to get their hands on SOMA before potentially spoiling story elements? Do you care and just want to binge watch all of these episodes? Let us know in the comments below. We will not be updating for each new episode here even though SOMA has become that news worthy in my eyes but you can get each new episode over at Frictional Games' YouTube channel. There will be a test on it all.
