Leslie Benzies, the mastermind behind Rockstar's Grand Theft Auto 5 and Red Dead Redemption, unveils his latest creation, MindsEye, with a fresh look at the PlayStation State of Play.
A newly released trailer showcases MindsEye as a cutting-edge spy thriller, echoing familiar Grand Theft Auto elements: third-person shooting, stunning cinematic sequences, and thrilling drive-by shootouts. Witness the action in the cinematic trailer below.
Official press materials reveal that MindsEye follows Jacob Diaz, whose neural implant, the MindsEye, has fragmented his memories, leaving him with disjointed flashbacks of his military service. His quest to uncover the truth about his past pits him against an AI-powered military force determined to obstruct his path.
MindsEye has been in development for several years. Following his departure from Rockstar Games, Benzies established Build a Rocket Boy, collaborating with Hitman developer IO Interactive on this ambitious project. Described as a AAA action-adventure title, MindsEye will also launch alongside the Everywhere platform, previously characterized as a "high-budget Roblox" following a studio visit in 2024.
While the new trailer omits mention of Everywhere, MindsEye promises an exhilarating action experience from a leading figure in the gaming industry. Expect MindsEye's release sometime in the summer of 2025.
