About Arctic Awakening:
In Arctic Awakening, you’ll brave the cutting cold to explore vast landscapes and the veiled structures found deep within them in the search for your co-pilot, safety, and the origin of the catastrophic storm that caused your aircraft to fall out of the sky. With Kai’s unwanted, court-mandated therapy bot by his side, you’ll uncover secrets and mysteries beneath the snow and ice that threaten to upend everything you know.

- Embrace Kai’s newfound survival partnership with his unwanted therapy bot, Alfie.
