Frictional Games unveiled a new extended gameplay trailer for the upcoming sci-fi survival horror video game "SOMA," and also revealed its official release date. 

The 12-minute long trailer showcases outstanding graphics that has a distinguished resemblance to "BioShock" and "Alien: Isolation." It also lets players have a glimpse at the first hour of the game. The video also introduces Carl Semken, a busted robot who has no idea that he is actually a robot. He is later on found dead in the video. 

Cinemablend described the technology of "SOMA" as reminiscent of a cyberpunk film, complete with old school computers, obsolete keypads, large tubes, as well as chunky buttons.The gameplay aspect, on the other hand, may remind players of "Amnesia: The Dark Descent" as well as the "Penumbra" series, which also came from the Swedish independent video game studio. 

Based on the trailer, players can do a lot of things to defend themselves against the cybernetic villains in the game, such as throwing away objects, running, and even opening and closing doors to escape. While players are trying to get to the new areas of the map, they will find themselves facing difficult challenges brought about by shutting down the reactor. 

Frictional Games first revealed the development of the title back in 2010, and it was almost complete early this year. Although little is known about the complete plot, early teasers showed that the protagonist wakes up in a lab without any memory. It is also said that he is used for unethical experiments in the said facility. 

Aside from the gameplay, the new trailer also announces the official release date of the single player horror survival game on PlayStation 4 and PC, which is set on Sept. 22.
