Coming to Xbox Series X|S and PC this winter, The Forest Cathedral is a first-person psychological thriller from Whitethorn Games and developer Brian Wilson that blends 2D platforming and 3D exploration in a harrowing scientific journey.

You play as Rachel, who has accepted a job as a field research biologist in a vast and vividly rendered forest on a remote island. As she completes her weekly chores, she quickly realizes that things are not what they seem. What secrets will Rachel discover on this island? Many will try to silence them, but somehow the truth must come out.
