Heartwarming Moments Awaits in Truer Than You
Truer than You, the latest narrative adventure from indie studio Transcenders Media will release on Steam on May 28, 2025. Positioned as a spiritual successor to Knife Sisters, this choice-driven visual novel places players in a vividly stylized world shaped by capitalism, personal identity, and moral complexity.
The story follows Rin, a 26-year-old non-binary gig worker newly hired by a shadowy company that embeds actors into real-world situations. Their task is to blend in, fulfill client needs, and never reveal the truth. Whether Rin is pretending to be someone’s soulmate or filming secret activist videos, the choices are theirs to make, within the limits of one golden rule: don’t get caught.
As players guide Rin through challenging and often surreal assignments, the game asks deeper questions about identity and reinvention. What compels someone to leave their past behind? Is it possible to find freedom by becoming someone else?
Set in a queer utopia, Truer than You places LGBTQ+ representation at its core. Characters reflect a broad spectrum of gender identities and sexualities, and same-sex relationships are the norm rather than the exception. The game offers a wide range of relationship dynamics, including romantic and non-romantic paths, letting players explore at their own pace and comfort level.
A fluid, responsive dialogue system offers over 1,000 lines of branching conversation, allowing players to shape Rin’s journey with silence or candor. With its layered themes and thoughtful design, Truer than You invites players to navigate a world where identity is both performance and truth, sometimes at the same time. Wishlist the game right now on Steam and become one of the first players to immerse themselves in this story.
