The Signifier: Director’s Cut Is Offering More Than Just A Next-Gen Feel

The announcement for The Signifier: Director’s Cut is here and it will bring The Signifier to the next-gen with some new endings to endure

One of the titles we had to help us through things last year was The Signifier with its weird mind-bending nature and other aspects to help us distract from the world. It was an interesting title indeed, and now it looks like more gamers out there will have a chance to experience what the game has to offer up. That is with the announcement for The Signifier: Director’s Cut as it is heading to the PS5, Xbox Series X, and upgrading other various versions that are out there now. Not overly shocking at all to see a new version to hit the systems out there now. The big difference being that this will offer more than just the visual upgrades we have been seeing over the last few months with other titles doing the same.

Obviously this version of The Signifier is going to have all of those 4K and 60+fps that everyone always wants in their games now. It also looks like we will have some new gameplay features added in, new story elements, and some new endings to it all based on our selections and choices along the way. This was something that felt a little on the light side when I first played The Signifier and now I have more reasons to go back into it all. Especially when I see that the PC version will get all of these upgrades for free when it does release there. A date and timeline that is not laid out as of yet, but I am sure it will be coming at some point along the way.

The Signifier is a surreal first-person adventure that blends experimental investigation, psychology, and artificial intelligence. When the vice president of the world's largest tech company turns up dead in her home, it’s up to you to explore her memories and emotions with a revolutionary brain scanner to uncover what happened. Move freely between three dimensions — reality, objective memories, and subjective feelings — searching for clues in mind-bending environments, discovering important revelations, solving puzzles, and putting the pieces together in pursuit of the truth.
