Read Only Memories: NEURODIVER, the next entry in the cyberpunk point-and-click adventure series enjoyed by more than half a million sleuths, will come to Xbox Series X|S in Q1 2022 simultaneously alongside the previously announced Xbox One, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, and Nintendo Switch console versions as well as the Steam and Epic Games Store editions for Windows PC and Mac.

For NEURODIVER, LGBT-focused developer MidBoss returns to Neo-San Francisco, a thriving metropolis populated by diverse and colourful locals. A few years have passed since the events of 2064: Read Only Memories, and fan-favourite characters such as police detective turned private eye Lexi Rivers, elite hacker TOMCAT, and expert attorney Jess Meas must join forces with powerful psychic ES88 to solve a new mystery.

A psychic known only as the Golden Butterfly has gone rogue, flitting between the minds of city residents and corrupting memories as they attempt to hide their tracks. Equipped with a bioengineered creature called a Neurodiver capable of amplifying her mind-reading abilities, ES88 is the only one who can repair the victims’ memories and trap the fiend once and for all.

She’ll have to handle the task with care, though – one wrong move can distort victims’ memories into oblivion.

Neo-San Francisco, with its cyberpunk mix of corporate interests, technological and biological advancement, and diverse cast with a lot of queer characters, has plenty of room for stories exploring the intersection of human nature with society and technology. NEURODIVER asks what makes us who we are while furthering the stories of characters like Lexi Rivers from 2064 and the comics taking place between the two games.
