Dive into the shadowy depths of Los Angeles in 2006 with *The Directorate: Novitiate*, a gripping narrative-driven, single-player, third-person action-RPG developed by Nesting Games. Step into the shoes of Kana Luna, also known as Mercury, and immerse yourself in a world where magic intertwines with reality. This game promises a thrilling blend of guns, magic, and deep storytelling, set against the backdrop of the Dark Syndicate. Nesting Games aims to make *The Directorate: Novitiate* one of the standout titles of 2025.
As Mercury, you'll embark on a mission to apprehend a supernatural serial killer, utilizing a mix of third-person gunplay and magical spells. Throughout your journey, you'll enhance both your offensive and defensive abilities, giving you significant control over your gameplay experience. But the game doesn't stop at mechanics; it extends to the narrative, where your choices matter profoundly. Nesting Games emphasizes, "Even romance has risks. Every choice has consequences. Choose whether to stay loyal to the Edicts of the Directorate or retain your humanity in the real world." The theme of duality is central, as you'll navigate the perilous life of a magical hitman by night while managing your everyday existence by day. Be cautious, as the collision of these two worlds could have dire repercussions.
