Duality is an abandoned video game project set in a futuristic megapolis, with visuals that resonate with Oni and Oni2 themes.

Like Strident, Duality was developed by Trilobite Graphics / Phantagram Interactive (Korea) in the early 2000s.

What We Know

Duality never made it to beta stage, and there are no detailed accounts of the game's factions or gameplay details.

The biggest source of information on the game's factions and entities is Alberto Gordillo's portfolio on ArtStation.

There seems to be at least three main factions - TechCorp, BioCorp and Templar -, each with their areas of influence.

The corporate districts are complemented by a dilapidated "Underworld", possibly ruled by another dominant faction.

Each of the three main factions/corporations has an "intranet" (VR environment) that can only be accessed on-site.

A vast public cyberspace also exists, apparently overseen by an "A.I. council".

Fantastic locations exist within the cyberspace, among them a "VR sanctuary".

The only named character we know of is "Cpt. McKenna" (owner of the "Electric Sheep" club?).

Art from other sources (mostly video game sites) not covered by the two portfolios will be uploaded to the wiki.

Trailers

There are two trailers. Neither of them is overly exciting.
